The Fe2+ level in vivo within the tumor was evaluated by Iron assay kit. Briefly, when the tumor size reached approximately 100–150 mm3, FGP (GOx 300 μg/mL, Fe 500 μg/mL) and saline were intravenously injected into 4T1 tumor-bearing mice (n = 3). Thereafter, all mice were sacrificed and the tumors were collected after 24 h post-injection. To measure the Fe2+ content, the tumors were weighed and homogenized in 1 mL of ice-cold PBS by a homogenizer and centrifuged (16,000×g) (Foring technology) for 10 min at 4 °C. Then, the level of Fe2+ in the supernatants were determined by the corresponding Iron Assay Kits (Dojindo, Tokyo, Japan) according to the manufacture's instructions.

The concentrations of endogenous ferrous iron levels of the lung tissue were measured with the iron assay kit (I291, Dojindo, Japan). Lung tissue was fully washed with cold PBS, and homogenized in iron assay buffer on the ice, and then centrifuged at 16,000 × g for 10 min. The supernatant was collected for subsequent experiments. The 100 μL standard (1 mmol/L) was added with 900 μL assay buffer to made into 1000 μmol/l standard solution and then diluted to prepare standard solution (50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.5625, 0 μmol/l). The 5% volume of reducer solution was added to each of standard solution, and 5% volume of assay buffer for ferrous iron along with blank tube. All tubes were incubated for 15 min at 37 °C. The 100 μL iron probe was added to each reaction, then mixed and incubated for a further 60 min at 37 °C in a 96-well plate. The absorbance at 593 nm was measured by microplate reader to calculate the iron level.

Cellular and mitochondrial ferrous iron concentrations were assessed using the FerroOrange probe (Dojindo, Japan) and Mito-FerroGreen probe (Dojindo), respectively. Briefly, 5 × 105 cells/well were seeded in 6-well plates and treated with 1 μmol/L SHK with or without DFOM. After 24 h, 1 μmol/L FerroOrange and 2 μmol/L Mito-FerroGreen probes were added to the cell culture, and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 30 min. The stained cells were monitored using a BD Accuri C6 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). The tissue ferrous iron and total iron concentrations were assessed using an iron assay kit (Dojindo) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Human OA cartilage Iron ion detection were performed using Iron Assay Kit (Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 100mg fresh human OA cartilage tissue was placed in a sterile 2ml tube containing 1 ml assay buffer, and were then grinded using homogenizer on the ice at 4°C. Then the homogenate was centrifuged at 16,000 g for 10 min, and the supernatant was collected. Assay buffer was added in supernatant to test Fe2+ level, or reducer solution was added to test total Iron level. The absorbance of the wells at a wavelength of 593 nm was measured on a microplate reader after a 1 h incubation at 37°C. Then the Fe2+, Fe3+ and total Iron levels of OA cartilage and corresponding non-lesion cartilage were calculated.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
