Highly sensitive electrochemical detection of potential cytotoxicity of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots using neural cell chip

Cell chip was recently developed as a simple and highly sensitive tool for the toxicity assessment of various kinds of chemicals or nano-materials. Here, we report newly discovered potential cytotoxic effects of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) on intracellular redox environment of neural cancer cells at very low concentrations which can be only detected by cell chip technology. Green (2.1 nm in diameter) and red (6.3 nm in diameter) QDs capped with cysteamine (CA) or thioglycolic acid (TA) were found to be toxic at 100 μg/mL when assessed by trypan blue and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). However, in case of concentration-dependent cytotoxicity, toxic effects of TA-capped QDs on human neural cells were only measured by DPV method when conventional MTT assay did not show toxicity of TA-capped QDs at low concentrations (1-10 μg/mL). Red-TA QDs and Green-TA QDs were found to decrease electrochemical signals from cells at 10 μg/mL and 5 μg/mL, respectively, while cell viability decreased at 100 μg/mL and 50 μg/mL when assessed by MTT assay, respectively. The relative decreases of cell viability determined by MTT assay were 15% and 11.9% when cells were treated with 5-50 μg/mL of Red-TA QDs and 5-30 μg/mL of Green-TA QDs, respectively. However, DPV signals decreased 37.5% and 39.2% at the same concentration range, respectively. This means that redox environment of cells is more sensitive than other components and can be easily affected by CdSe/ZnS QDs even at low concentrations. Thus, our proposed neural cell chip can be applied to detect potential cytotoxicity of various kinds of molecular imaging agents simply and accurately.     

In vitro antiproliferative and antifungal activity of essential oils from Erigeron acris L. and Erigeron annuus (L.) Pers

Antiproliferative and antifungal activities of essential oils from Erigeron acris root and herb and from Erigeron annuus herb were investigated. The cell viability assay was performed in cultured fibroblasts, cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MBA-231), and endometrial adenocarcinoma (Ishikawa) cells as well as colon adenocarcinoma (DLD-1) cells using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). The essential oil from E. acris root showed the highest antiproliferative activity in the MCF-7 cell line with an IC50 value of 14.5 microg/mL. No effect of the essential oil on normal cells at that concentration was found. Antifungal activity against various strains of five Candida species, i.e. C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. tropicalis, C. krusei, and C. parapsilosis, was tested by the microdilution method. It was found that all examined oils can be useful as antifungal agents against the above-mentioned species, but the essential oil of E. acris herb was the most active. Their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) ranged from 30 to 0.4 microL/mL. The data presented suggest that essential oils from E. acris and E. annuus possess antifungal activity against Candida spp. and antiproliferative activity against breast cancer MCF-7 cells.     

Anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol on human breast cancer MCF-7 cells

Olive oil intake has been shown to induce significant levels of apoptosis in various cancer cells. These anti-cancer properties are thought to be mediated by phenolic compounds present in olive. These beneficial health effects of olive have been attributed, at least in part, to the presence of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol. In this study, oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, major phenolic compound of olive oil, was studied for its effects on growth in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells using assays for proliferation (MTT assay), cell viability (Guava ViaCount assay), cell apoptosis, cellcycle (flow cytometry). Oleuropein or hydroxytyrosol decreased cell viability, inhibited cell proliferation, and induced cell apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. Result of MTT assay showed that 200 μg/mL of oleuropein or 50 μg/mL of hydroxytyrosol remarkably reduced cell viability of MCF-7 cells. Oleuropein or hydroxytyrosol decrease of the number of MCF-7 cells by inhibiting the rate of cell proliferation and inducing cell apoptosis. Also hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein exhibited statistically significant block of G₁ to S phase transition manifested by the increase of cell number in G₀/G₁ phase.     

Use of the tetrazolium salt MTT to measure cell viability effects of the bacterial antagonist Lysobacter enzymogenes on the filamentous fungus Cryphonectria parasitica

Despite substantial interest investigating bacterial mechanisms of fungal growth inhibition, there are few methods available that quantify fungal cell death during direct interactions with bacteria. Here we describe an in vitro cell suspension assay using the tetrazolium salt MTT as a viability stain to assess direct effects of the bacterial antagonist Lysobacter enzymogenes on hyphal cells of the filamentous fungus Cryphonectria parasitica. The effects of bacterial cell density, fungal age and the physiological state of fungal mycelia on fungal cell viability were evaluated. As expected, increased bacterial cell density correlated with reduced fungal cell viability over time. Bacterial effects on fungal cell viability were influenced by both age and physiological state of the fungal mycelium. Cells obtained from 1-week-old mycelia lost viability faster compared with those from 2-week-old mycelia. Likewise, hyphal cells obtained from the lower layer of the mycelial pellicle lost viability more quickly compared with cells from the upper layer of the mycelial pellicle. Fungal cell viability was compared between interactions with L. enzymogenes wildtype strain C3 and a mutant strain, DCA, which was previously demonstrated to lack in vitro antifungal activity. Addition of antibiotics eliminated contributions to MTT-formazan production by bacterial cells, but not by fungal cells, demonstrating that mutant strain DCA had lost complete capacity to reduce fungal cell viability. These results indicate this cell suspension assay can be used to quantify bacterial effects on fungal cells, thus providing a reliable method to differentiate strains during bacterial/fungal interactions.     

Evaluation of viability assays for anthocyanins in cultured cells

The MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] assay is a widely accepted cytotoxicity assay which can produce inaccurate results due to possible interference with the antioxidant property of anthocyanins. Alternative methods to the MTT assay, such as BrdU (DNA-based) and CellTiter-Glo (ATP-based) assays were evaluated to assess anthocyanin cytotoxicity, derived from blackberry in LNCaP, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-453 cell lines. The standard cell counting method was the reference assay. Greater correlation of cell viability values following anthocyanin exposure was obtained from multiple cell lines with the alternative assays when compared with cell counting. MTT and cell counting results were not always correlated, albeit this was a function of cell type. In particular, poor correlations between cell counting and MTT procedures used to assess cytotoxicity of anthocyanins were observed in the MDA-MB-453 cell lines. Comparison of cytotoxicity derived from alternative assays and the MTT assays with the cell counting method was dependent on the assay procedure and the cell type. The LC(50) of blackberry crude extract ranged from 0.4 to 9.4 mg/mL between assays and across all cell lines, whereas a semi-purified anthocyanin extract was not cytotoxic. Cytotoxicity evaluation of polyphenolic-rich extracts using BrdU and CellTiter-Glo assays as alternatives to the MTT method is recommended.

Effects of Cymbopogon citratus and Ferula assa-foetida extracts on glutamate-induced neurotoxicity

Many of CNS diseases can lead to a great quantity of release of glutamate and the extreme glutamate induces neuronal cell damage and death. Here, we wanted to investigate the effects of Cymbopogon citratus essential oil and Ferula assa-foetida extracts treatment on glutamate-induced cell damage in a primary culture of rat cerebellar granule neurons. Cerebellums were collected from 7-d rat brains and cerebellar granule neurons were obtained after 8-d culture. CGN cells were treated with C. citratus essential oil and F. assa-foetida extracts at concentration of 100 μg/ml before, after, and during exposure to 30 μM glutamate. The cellular viability was evaluated by 3-(4, 5-dimethytthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT) staining. The flow cytometry assay was used to examine cell cycle and apoptosis. MTT assay showed a glutamate-induced reduction in cellular viability while treatment with C. citratus essential oil and F. assa-foetida extracts before, during, and after exposure to glutamate was increased. Flow cytometric analysis indicated that F. assa-foetida extracts treatment significantly (p?<?0.001) attenuated glutamate-induced apoptotic/necrotic cell death and the necrotic rate was decreased by C. citratus essential oil treatment compared to glutamate group, significantly (p?<?0.001). The results show that C. citratus essential oil and F. assa-foetida extracts display neuroprotective effects in glutamate-induced neurotoxicity. These extracts exert antiapoptotic activity in cerebellar granule neurons due to cell cycle arrest in G0G1 phase, which explain the beneficial effects of C. citratus essential oil and F. assa-foetida extracts as therapies for neurologic disorders.     

Anticancer Metal Complexes: Synthesis and Cytotoxicity Evaluation by the MTT Assay

Titanium (IV) and vanadium (V) complexes are highly potent anticancer agents. A challenge in their synthesis refers to their hydrolytic instability; therefore their preparation should be conducted under an inert atmosphere. Evaluation of the anticancer activity of these complexes can be achieved by the MTT assay.The MTT assay is a colorimetric viability assay based on enzymatic reduction of the MTT molecule to formazan when it is exposed to viable cells. The outcome of the reduction is a color change of the MTT molecule. Absorbance measurements relative to a control determine the percentage of remaining viable cancer cells following their treatment with varying concentrations of a tested compound, which is translated to the compound anticancer activity and its IC₅₀ values. The MTT assay is widely common in cytotoxicity studies due to its accuracy, rapidity, and relative simplicity.Herein we present a detailed protocol for the synthesis of air sensitive metal based drugs and cell viability measurements, including preparation of the cell plates, incubation of the compounds with the cells, viability measurements using the MTT assay, and determination of IC₅₀ values.
