https://www.selleckchem.com/products/cpi-613.html Superoxide formation is a hallmark of cardiovascular disease with the involvement of different tissues and cell types. Identification of the cellular sources and subcellular localization of superoxide formation is important to understand the underlying disease pathomechanisms. In the present study, we used HPLC quantification of the superoxide-specific oxidation products of hydroethidine (HE or DHE) and its derivative hydropropidine (HPr+) for measurement of intra- and extracellular superoxide formation in isolated leukocytes and tissues of hypertensive rats. Superoxide generation by isolated leukocytes from human subjects as well as tissue samples of hypertensive rats (infusion of angiotensin-II for 7 days) was investigated using HPr+ and HE fluorescent probes with HPLC or plate reader detection. Both fluorescent dyes were used to test for intra- and extracellular superoxide formation using the supernatant or cell/tissue pellet for analysis. We demonstrate the correlation of impaired functional parameters (blood pressure, vascular function, and oxidative burst) and increased superoxide formation in different organ systems of hypertensive rats using the HPr+/HPLC method. In the cell model, the differences between HE and HPr+ and especially the advantage of the extracellular specificity of HPr+, due to its cell impermeability, became evident. Plate reader-based assays showed much higher background signal and were inferior to HPLC based methods. In conclusion, the HPr+/HPLC assay for superoxide determination is highly reliable in isolated immune cells and an animal model of arterial hypertension. In particular, the cell impermeability of HPr+ made it possible to differentiate between intra- and extracellular superoxide formation.Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating injury that characterized by oxidative stress and inflammatory response.
