2017 | Vinaiphat A, et al. [30] | Cell: MDCK cells (whole cells) Crystal: 100/1000 µg/mL COD/COM Incubation: 48 h |
Protein–protein interactions network analysis, luciferin–luciferase ATP assay, Oxyblot assay, measurement of ubiquitinated proteins, cell death assay, and crystal–cell adhesion assay | High-dose of these crystals caused more obvious changes in cellular proteome than low-dose, and COM was more potent for inducing alterations in cellular proteome than COD. The cells treated with high-dose had greater levels of intracellular ATP, oxidatively modified proteins and cell death, but lower level of ubiquitinated proteins. COM also induced more severe cytotoxicity than COD. Pretreatment of the cells with an antioxidant EGCG could lower the crystal-induced accumulation of oxidatively modified proteins and crystal-binding capability of the cells. |

In contrast, levels of intracellular ATP and oxidatively modified proteins were increased. |
