Exposing Cells to the Conditions of Ischemia-Reperfusion While Oxygenation is Monitored by the CLARIOstar with ACU

Life-threatening diseases such as myocardial infarction, stroke, or renal failure can occur due to interrupted oxygen flow. Cells and tissues are temporarily deprived of O2 (ischemia) and develop survival-strategies.

Additionally, upon re-oxygenation (reperfusion), cells are exposed to an additional threat by sudden oxygen increase. Despite being critical for survival, sudden reperfusion of tissue creates an inflammatory response and oxidative stress..

A trial set-up which mimics rapid fluctuations in O2 level is needed for assessment of biological effects of ischemia-reperfusion.

A microplate reader with software-regulated CO2 and O2 flow is employed in the ischemia-reperfusion model shown here. Fluctuations in oxygenation of Cor.4U® cardiomyocytes and HepG2 cells were recorded using an intracellular oxygen-sensitive fluorescent probe .
