Quantifying Total Cellular Glutathione

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess the total level of glutathione, the 3T3 cells (5 × 106 in six-well plate), obtained 24 h after oxidative stress induction, were washed with ice-cold 1× PBS, removed, resuspended in PBS and centrifuged (3000× g at 4 °C) twice for 5 min. After this process, the suspension obtained was then diluted in 50% trichloroacetic acid (Vetec, São Paulo, SP, Brazil) and centrifuged during 15 min (3000× g at 4 °C). After, the cell supernatant was diluted with the same volume 0.4 M Tris buffer contained 0.01 M dithiobisnitrobenzoic (Sigma-Aldrich, São Paulo, SP, Brazil). The material was read at 412 nm. The results were expressed as nmol/106 cells.

Ouabain octahydrate, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), acetylthiocholine iodide, 3(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA), 5,51-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid)(DTNB), catechin, (−) epigallocatechin, (−) epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, rutin, and kaempferol were acquired from Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, MO, USA). Dibasic phosphate potassium (K2HPO4), monobasic phosphate potassium (KH2PO4), and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) were supplied by Vetec (Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil). All chemicals and solvents were of analytical grade and the water used was glass distilled.

Glutathione Levels in 3T3 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess the total glutathione level, we cultured 3T3 cells (5 × 106 in a 6-well plate) for 24 h after inducing oxidative stress with H2O2, and L. ferrea EHMV was added at a concentration of 0.2 or 1.0 mg/mL. Subsequently, we washed and resuspended the cells in PBS and centrifuged them (3,000 × g at 4°C) twice for 5 min each. Next, we diluted the cell suspension in 50% trichloroacetic acid (Vetec, São Paulo, SP, Brazil) and centrifuged it for 15 min (3,000 g at 4°C). Next, we diluted the cell supernatant with an equal volume of 0.4 M Tris containing 0.01 M dithiobisnitrobenzoic acid (Sigma‒Aldrich, São Paulo, SP, Brazil). Subsequently, we measured the absorbance at 412 nm using a microplate reader (Epoch BioTek Instruments Inc., VT). The results are expressed in nmol/106 cells.

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.
