Modifications of Cellular Autofluorescence Emission Spectra under Oxidative Stress Induced by 1 α,25dihydroxyvitamin D3 and its Analog EB1089

We attempted to characterize the cellular autofluorescence phenomenon of living HL-60 cells and to appraise its modifications under oxidative stress conditions induced by 1α,25(OH)2D3 (VD3) and its analog EB1089. Autofluorescence emission spectra of human promyelocytic HL-60 leukemic cells were moni...

Description
Summary:We attempted to characterize the cellular autofluorescence phenomenon of living HL-60 cells and to appraise its modifications under oxidative stress conditions induced by 1α,25(OH)2D3 (VD3) and its analog EB1089. Autofluorescence emission spectra of human promyelocytic HL-60 leukemic cells were monitored using laser scanning confocal microspectrofluorometry under UV excitation. Evaluation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) release was performed using the 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (H2-DCFDA) staining and fluorescence emission measurement. VD3 (1, 10, 100 nM) or EB1089 (0.1, 1 and 10 nM) induces a decrease in autofluorescence emission intensity that can be attributed to the oxidation of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) NAD(P)H into NAD(P)+. A dose-dependent increase (p
