The JC1- Mitochondrial membrane potential assay kit has been tested using HepG2 cells, control cells and FCCP-treated cells (100uM for 4h) have been used as a positive control. The company's instructions were followed for JC1 mitochondrial membrane potential assay. Imaging was performed on a customized Andor Revolution Spinning Disk Confocal System built around a stand (IX81 Olympus) with a 60x lens and a digital camera (Andor Ixon+885) (CIBIT Facility, MBG-DUTH). Image acquisition was performed in Andor IQ 2 software. Optical sections were recorded every 0.3 µm. All confocal microscopy images presented in this work are 2D maximum intensity projections of z-stack images (ImageJ 1.47v National Institute of Health,USA).
Personal feedback: A green laser with the appropriate emission filter (530nm) has been used to detect the monomer of the JC1 dye, following FCCP treatment the mitochondrial membrane potential of the cells was eliminated, as demonstrated by the increase of the monomer emission.
