Effect of arsenite and/or zinc on PARP-1 activity. HaCat cells were incubated with 20 μM arsenite (A) or 1 μM arsenite (B) with or without 20 μM zinc for 24 hrs. Then 0.1 mM H2O2 was incubated in the indicated groups for 5 min. The PARP-1 activity was detected by measuring the production of PAR using immunofluorescence. Scale bar = 200 μm. (C). HaCat cells were incubated with 1 μM arsenite with or without 20 μM zinc for 24 hrs. Then 0.1 mM H2O2 was incubated in the indicated groups for 5 min. The PARP-1 activities were examined functionally by HT Colorimetric PARP Assay kit. Data (n ≥ 3) were presented as means ± S.D. * p<0.05 vs indicated group in the figure.
