] Neurons were stimulated with OxyHb and treated with or without celastrol for 24 h. After being washed 3 times with PBS, the cells were incubated in a prepared JC‐1 working solution at 37 °C for 30 min. Subsequently, the stained cells were visualized under a fluorescent microscope (Tokyo, Japan), and fluorescence intensity was quantified using a fluorescent microplate reader (excitation/emission wavelengths of 514/529 nm for monomers and 585/590 nm for aggregates) (SpectraMax Paradigm, Thermo Fisher Scientific, 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.
