In Vitro

ROS-generating agent 1 (0.5-2 μM; 1-12 h) selectively induces time- and concentration-dependent ROS accumulation in NCI-H460 cells but not in normal MRC-5 cells[1].
ROS-generating agent 1 (9 h) selectively depletes intracellular GSH levels in NCI-H460 cells in a dose-dependent manner, while having no significant effect on MRC-5 cells[1].
ROS-generating agent 1 (0.5-2 μM; 6 h) dose-dependently inhibits TrxR activity in NCI-H460 cells but has negligible effect on TrxR activity in normal MRC-5 cells[1].

ROS-generating agent 1 (0.5-2 μM; 12-36 h) concentration- and time-dependently reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in NCI-H460 cells[1].
ROS-generating agent 1 (1-2 μM; 48 h) induces ROS-dependent mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis in NCI-H460 cells, as shown by altered expression of Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-9, and caspase-3[1].
ROS-generating agent 1 (0.25-0.5 μM; 40 h) selectively induces ferroptosis in a dose-dependent manner in NCI-H460 cells[1].
ROS-generating agent 1 (0.5-2 μM; 40 h) dose-dependently increases MDA levels in NCI-H460 cells[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
