Phosphate increases Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in HEK-293 cells. Intracellular ROS was determined using the probes (A) H2DCFDA (detects presence of ROS unspecifically) (B) DHRH (determinates peroxynitrate) (C) CMFDA (detects levels of glutathione) after 24 hours of incubation with different concentrations of inorganic phosphate. (t-test analysis. *p < 0.05 vs basal phosphate; **p < 0.01 vs basal phosphate; ***p < 0.001 vs basal phosphate. Basal phosphate is the content of phosphate in the culture medium at 0.9 mM.
