The 3-D cell model was made by culturing cells (2 10 5 1.0 10 6 ) with high glucose DMEM supplemented with 30% bovine collagen solution overnight
Day 10 cultured SCD erythroblasts were treated with 75 M hemin (#51280, Sigma) (dissolved in 0.25 M NaOH then neutralized with HCL to pH7.4), 50 M dimethyl fumarate (#242926, Sigma) (dissolved in DMSO), 0.5 mM (2S)-Tetrahydro-5-oxo-2-furancarboxylic acid (TFMB-L2HG) (#SML2563, Sigma) (dissolved in DMSO), 0.5 mM S-(5-Adenosyl)-L-methionine iodide (SAM) (#A4377, Sigma) (dissolved in water), and cultured under hypoxia (1% O 2 ) using Heracell 150i incubator equipped with an Oxygen (O 2 ) sensor and Nitrogen (N2) gas supply and analyzed on day 12 of culture

Copper is an essential element in the human body, and it is involved in multiple biochemical processes which affect cell growth and differentiation, tissue regeneration, nervous system health and development, and gene expression [ 38 ]
We can't stress this enough: the reconstitution step is an active and critical part of your experimental procedure, not just a prep-work task to rush through
In the past couple decades, investigations into PD pathology have revealed some distinct features, such as iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, glutathione depletion, CoQ10 deficiency, glutathione peroxidase (Gpx4) reduction, mitochondrial lesions, among others 7
