In Vitro | β-amyloid (12-28) preared freshly in solution has no cytotoxicity, but aged β12-28 peptide (0.001-40 μM) reduces the viability of PC12 cells in a concentration dependent manner[1]. |
Cell Assay | PC12 pheochromocytoma cell lines are routinely cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum,5% horse serum, 1% glutamine and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Exponentially growing cellsare plated at 30000 cells per well per 100 µL of fresh medium in 96-well tissue cultures plates. Toxicity assays are carried out by measurementof MTT reduction. Two days after plating PC12 pheochromocytoma cell lines are treated with different concentrations of aged β-amyloid (12-28). After 22 h, MTT (5 mg/mL) wasadded and incubation is continued for a further2 h. Cells are lysed and after 24 h at 37°C,colorimetric determination of MTT reduction is made at 550 nm. Positive controls consist of cells in culture medium. Assay values obtained with these controls are taken as 100% viability[1]. |
