Phloroglucinol Protects ARPE-19 Cells from Oxidative Stress

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ARPE-19 cells (CRL-2302) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA) and routinely cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium/F-12 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (WELGENE Inc., Gyeongsan, Republic of Korea) as described previously [27 (link)]. To investigate beneficial effects of phloroglucinol on oxidative damage, cells were cultured in media containing desired concentrations of phloroglucinol and H2O2 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) for 24 h or pretreated with phloroglucinol, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), Mito-TEMPO, and/or 3-methyladenine (3-MA, Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO, USA) for 1 h prior to treatment with H2O2 for 24 h. To investigate the blocking effect of phloroglucinol on the generation of ROS induced by H2O2, cells were pretreated with phloroglucinol, NAC, and Mito-TEMPO for 1 h and then treated with H2O2 for 1 h. To acquire fluorescence images of ROS generation, γH2AX expression, and autophagic vacuoles, cells cultured on coverslips were stimulated with H2O2 in the presence or absence of phloroglucinol, NAC, and/or Mito-TEMPO. After treatment, cells were washed with phosphate-buffered saline and subjected to fluorescence staining.

Phlorotannin Content Determination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total phlorotannin content was determined according to the method of Singleton and Rossi (1965) . The standard was 98% phloroglucinol (PGE, 50–300 μg/mL) from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA). A mixture of 200 μL of subfraction sample, 2.6 mL distilled water, and 200 μL of 2 M Folin-Ciocalteu reagent were incubated at room temperature for 6 min. The reaction was stopped by adding 2 mL of 7% (w/v) Na2CO3. The mixture was incubated again at room temperature for 90 min, and the absorbance at 750 nm was measured with a UV-VIS Spectrophotometer (V-530; Jasco, Tokyo, Japan). Total phlorotannin content was calculated from the regression equation of the standard curve from phloroglucinol.

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.
