The cytotoxicity of SR was determined using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8, Transgen Biotech, Beijing, China). According to the manufacturer’s protocol, MC3T3-E1 cells were harvested and adjusted to the density at 1.0 × 105/ml, inoculating into a 96-well cell culture plate at 200 μl per well. After cell adherence, different concentrations (0.1–5.0 mM) of SR (MedChemExpress, NJ, U.S.A.) were added for 48 h of incubation, and triplicate wells were set in each group. Finally, 20 μl CCK-8 solution was added to each well, and incubation was continued for another 4 h at 37°C, then each well was measured by a multi-plate reader BioTek Synergy 2 (Winooski, VT, U.S.A.). The effect of SR on the cell viability of MC3T3-E1 was evaluated according to OD450 value. The experiment was repeated three times, and the averaged value was calculated for each concentration.

Evaluating the Cytotoxic Effects of SeO2 and GSK-J4

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pharmacological effects of SeO2 and GSK-J4 on cell proliferation were assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8, TransGen, Beijing, China) following the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, HeLa and SiHa cells were seeded at a density of 3 × 103 cells/well in 96-well culture plates and treated with varying concentrations of SeO2 and GSK-J4. After treatment, 20 μl of CCK-8 solution was added to each well and incubated for an additional 2 h at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 incubator. The optical density (OD) of each well was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader (BioTek, VT, USA), and the data was graphically displayed. The growth rate (%) was calculated using the formula: (ODExperiment − ODBlank)/(ODControl − ODBlank) × 100%. The IC50 was determined using GraphPad Prism 9 software (GraphPad Software, USA).

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.
