Free Radic Bio Med 99, 20–31. Augmentation of glycolytic metabolism by meclizine is indispensable for protection of dorsal root ganglion neurons from hypoxia-iduced mitochondrial compromise.  2016

Zhuo, M., Gorgun, M.F. and Englander, E.W.

Notes: The levels of NADP+ and NADPH in dorsal root ganglion neurons were followed as an indicator of the pentose phosphate branch of glycolysis. Meclizine helped preserve the NADP+/NADPH ratio in hypoxia but was unable to preserve the ratio in the presence of 2-deoxyglucose. As an indicator of the utilization of NADPH, the GSH/GSSG ratio was monitored in the cells.  Meclizine induced increased GSH production during hypoxia which of course was abrogated by 2-deoxyglucose. The study used the NADP/NADPH-Glo™ and GSH/GSSG-Glo™ Assays. (4849)

Nat. Genet. 47, 1475–81. NRF2 regulates serine biosynthesis in non-small cell lung cancer. 2015

DeNicola, G.M, Chen, P.-H., Mullarky, D., Sudderth, J.A., Hu, Z., Wu, D., Tang, H., Xie, Y., Asara, J.M., Huffman, K.E., Wistuba, I.I., Minna, J.D., DeBerardinis, R.J. and Cantley, L.C.

Notes: Serine/Glycine biosynthesis was examined for a panel of 79 non-small cell lung carcinomas, and each could be classified into a high-synthetic and a low-synthetic group based on expression of four enzymes involved in serine/glycine synthesis from glucose. ATF4 was identified as a key mediator of NRF2 activity for serine/glycine biosynthesis through transcriptional activation and not regulation of ATF4 translation (the latter being examined in a dual-luciferase reporter assay using Dual-Glo® Luciferase Assay System). A byproduct of the conversion of serine to glycine is production of NADPH. Seven high-synthetic cell lines exhibited a marked decrease in NADPH levels with regard to NADP+ level when the rate-limiting serine/glycine synthetic enzyme was knocked down with shRNAs with little change in NADPH/NADP+ ratios in six low-synthetic cell lines. The levels of NADPH and NADP+ were monitored with the NADP/NADPH-Glo™ Assay. Expression of the various shRNAs used in the study did not induce cytotoxicity as judged by staining with the CellTox™ Green Cytotoxicity Assay and visual examination by fluorescent microscopy. The identity of all cell lines used in this study were verified by STR analysis with a PowerPlex® System. (4715)

PLos ONE 10, e0128445. Ketamine causes mitochondrial dysfunction in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons. 2015

Ito, H., Uchida, T. and Makita, K.

Notes: Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) were differentiated into neurons and treated with 20, 100 and 500μM of ketamine for 6 and 24 hours to examine the neurotoxic effects of ketamine. The ApoTox-Glo™ Triplex Assay was used to examine cell viability and caspase-3/7 activation in the ketamine-treated iPSC-derived neurons. Fluorescence (cell viability) and luminescence (caspase-3/7 assay) was detected using a GloMax® multimode instrument. To examine if reactive oxygen species levels changed when iPSC-derived neurons were exposed to ketamine, the authors used the ROS-Glo™ H2O2 Assay with cells that were ketamine treated with or without a ROS scavenger for 6 and 24 hours. Luminescence was detected using a GloMax® instrument. Caspase activity was confirmed with or without the ROS scavenger using the Caspase-Glo® 3/7 Reagent from the ApoTox-Glo™ Triplex Assay. The levels of ketamine-induced oxidative stress were assessed in iPSC-derived neurons using the NAD/NADH-Glo™ Assay, and cellular ATP levels determined using the Mitochondrial ToxGlo™ Assay. The luminescence from both assays were measured on a GloMax® detection instrument. (4570)

Cholewa, B.D., Pellitteri-Hahn, M.C., Scarlett, C.O. and Ahmad, N.

Notes: Cell pellets of A375 human melanoma cells were lysed by passing through a needle, centrifuged to remove debris and protein quantitated. Twenty micrograms of protein from control and treated lysates were digested with 1µg of Sequencing Grade Modified Trypsin and used for mass spectrometry analysis. A375 cells (5 × 105) were grown in a 10cm dish and treated for 24 hours before isolating RNA and DNA synthesized using M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase. The cDNA was then used in qPCR. A375 cells were plated at 3 × 103 in 96-well half-volume white-wall plates, grown and treated for 24 hours. NAD, NADH and NADPH were determined using the NAD(P)H-Glo™ Detection System or NAD/NADH-Glo™ Assay and luminescence measured. (4963)
