In vitro assay of Walker-256 cell viability and superoxide production in response to leucine treatment. Approximately 1 × 103 W256 cells were seeded in 96-well plates and treated with 50 µM L-leucine for 24 (A and C) or 96 h (B and D). Cell viability was accessed using the neutral red uptake and the absorbance was normalised by the mean of a control group. Superoxide production was measured using dihydroethidium (DHE), and the fluorescence of each sample was normalised by the fluorescence of Hoechst 33342 (HO). Experiments were performed at least two times. Bar graphs represent the mean ± standard deviation. ***P < 0.001 versus Ctl; ##P < 0.01 versus Leu.
