Description of TMRE (Tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester perchlorate)

TMRE is a mitochondria specific dye (λex=550 nm, λem=575 nm).

TMRE is a mitochondria specific dye (λex=550 nm, λem=575 nm)[1]. Multidirectional dynamic movement of TMRE is observed in epithelial cells and bidirectional dynamic movement is seen in the superficial cortical fiber cells of live bovine lenses. In the epithelium, the movement of TMRE fluorescence is up to 5 μm/min whereas in the superficial cortex the observed movement is up to 18.5 μm/min. The movement of TMRE fluorescence is abolished with treatment of the uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP)[2].

Protocol of TMRE (Tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester perchlorate)

Cell experiment:

The entire experiment should be performed at room temperature because temperature will directly impact mitochondrial transmembrane potential and TMRE staining. Cells should never be placed, centrifuged, incubated, or washed at 4°C or have ice-cold buffers or media added. Treat the cells with a cytotoxic stimulus. Harvest cells and resuspend at 5×105 cells/mL in culture medium containing 150 nM TMRE. Incubate for 5 min at room temperature in the dark. Add Carbonyl cyanide 4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) (5 μM final concentration) to an aliquot of untreated cells and incubate for 5 min at room temperature in the dark. Turn on the appropriate laser on the flow cytometer. Set up a histogram plot to detect TMRE using log scale[1].

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
