Quantifying Oxidative Stress in Live Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Oxidative stress in live cultures was assessed with CellROX Green (Life Technologies, #C10444), which remains non‐fluorescent until oxidized by intracellular ROS. The fluorescent signal intensity is proportional to the levels of intracellular free radicals. Cultures were plated in black optical bottom plates (Thermo Fisher, #NUN165305) and incubated in CellROX Green for 30 min after treatment, followed by 2× PBS washes prior to imaging. Images were captured on an Incucyte Zoom in phase contrast and green at 20× magnification (0.61 μm/pixel resolution) with three images per well. Mean Green Intensity was normalized to culture confluence for each image.

ARPE19 cells cultured on coverslips or 96-F fluorescence microplates (black) with/without oxPOS, under control and zinc depleted and zinc-supplemented conditions, were treated with 5 μM per well CellROX green (Life Technologies) for 30 min at 37°C.
The fluorescence intensity of CellROX green in cells was quantified using a fluorescent plate reader with an excitation filter of 485 nm and an emission filter of 520 nm. The background fluorescence intensity/autofluorescence was subtracted from the CellROX green intensity of cells for data analysis. For confocal microscopy, cells were further stained with MitoTracker Red (Life Technologies) and Hoechst 33342 (Thermo Fisher Scientific Loughborough, UK) for a further 30 min.

Respectively 2.5.105 and 5.105 OCI-M1 and OCI-M2 cells per well were seeded in a 6-well plate in 2 ml medium with or without 5 μM AZD1208. Following 48 hours of culture, positive and negative control cells were treated according to the manufacturer's instructions with 400 μM tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and 5 mM N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). All samples were incubated for 1 hour with 500 nM CellROX green (ROS indicator, Molecular Probes) or 5 μM MitoSOX red (mitochondrial superoxide indicator, Molecular Probes) and subsequently analyzed by flow cytometry using 488 nm excitation for CellROX green and 510 nm excitation for MitoSOX red.

Evaluating Apoptosis and Oxidative Stress in hDPCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Apoptosis of hDPCs was evaluated using an Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide (PI) double staining assay (BD, Bergen, NJ, USA). After treatments with melatonin and (or) H2O2, hDPCs were collected, rinsed, and incubated with Annexin V-FITC and PI for 15 min at room temperature. Cell samples were then analyzed by flow cytometry (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). The proportions of Annexin V-positive cells were recorded as apoptotic rates.
Intracellular ROS levels were measured using CellROX® Green (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA). Upon H2O2 and melatonin treatment, hDPCs were collected and incubated with CellROX® reagent for 1 h at 37 °C, washed with PBS for three times, and analyzed by flow cytometry. Intracellular ROS levels were indicated by the mean intensity of green fluorescence.
A Mitochondrial Membrane Potential Detection Kit (JC-1; Beyotime, Shanghai, China) was employed to analyze mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) in hDPCs. After various treatments, hDPCs were collected and incubated with JC-1 staining solution for 20 min at 37 °C. After rinsing, the cells were resuspended for flow cytometry. The ratio of red (J-aggregates)/green (JC-1 monomer) fluorescence was calculated, which represents ΔΨm.
A total of 10,000 cells were harvested from each sample for these flow cytometric analyses. Experiments were repeated at least three times.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Intracellular ROS formation after 24 h post exposure of the CNT/F was assessed using CellROX® Green (Invitrogen). Cells were seeded at 46,900 cells/cm2 overnight in a 24-well plate and dosed at a concentration of 0.024, 0.24, 2.4, or 24 μg/ml of one of the nine materials tested. In terms of surface area this corresponds to 0.012, 0.12, 1.2 and 12 μg/cm2. After 24 h of exposure to CNT/F, cells were detached using Trypsin-EDTA, and washed and incubated with 50 μM CellROX for 20 min. Cells were washed and fixed by incubating them with 10% formaldehyde in PBS. The change in CellROX fluorescence was captured using a BD LSR II flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA). The cells were strained through a Flowmi™ Cell Strainer (Bel-Art Products, Inc. Wayne, NJ) to achieve uniform single cell suspensions and remove any aggregates. The mean fluorescence was determined using FlowJo (FlowJo LLC, Ashland, OR). The experiment was performed on four separate days with each dose tested in triplicates each day. At least 10,000 cells were analyzed per sample in each group.

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.
