CRES amyloids are not cytotoxic to mammalian cells. Freshly prepared and aged mid- and high concentration CRES was added to mouse DC1 epididymal cells (0.17–17 μM final) in a 96 well plate and incubated for 20 hours at 37 °C, 5% CO2 in media without serum. Freshly prepared Aβ1–40 added to DC1 epididymal cells (0.2–2 μM final) served as a cytotoxic amyloid control. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Cells incubated with freshly prepared mid- and high concentration CRES showed similar MTT values and were pooled. C, control cells incubated with buffer only. T, cells incubated with 1% Triton x-100. All samples were done in duplicate. Data show the mean ± SEM of n = 3–6 biological replicates using 2–5 different CRES preparations. Statistical differences were determined by ANOVA followed by Tukey test. *p ≤ 0.05.
