Preparation of Mag-Fura-2 AM Working Solution
1.1 Stock Solution Preparation Dissolve Mag-Fura-2 AM powder in anhydrous DMSO to prepare a 10 mM stock solution. Note: Aliquot and store the stock solution protected from light at -20°C or -80°C. 1.2 Working Solution Preparation Dilute the stock solution with pre-warmed HBSS buffer to obtain a 1-10 μM Mag-Fura-2 AM working solution. Note: Adjust the working solution concentration as needed, and prepare fresh before use. Staining Procedure for Suspension Cells 2.1 Cell Pre-treatment Centrifuge to collect cells, wash twice with PBS (5 min each), and adjust cell density to 1×10⁶/mL. 2.2 Dye Incubation Add 1 mL working solution and incubate at room temperature protected from light for 5-30 min. 2.3 Dye Removal Centrifuge at 400 g for 3-4 min and carefully remove the supernatant. 2.4 Washing Steps Wash cells twice with PBS (5 min each). 2.5 Detection Preparation Resuspend cells in 1 mL HBSS for analysis by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. Staining Protocol for Adherent Cells 3.1 Cell Culture Seed cells on sterile coverslips and culture until ready. 3.2 Medium Removal Remove coverslips and aspirate residual medium. 3.3 Staining Add 100 μL working solution, gently rock to ensure full coverage, and incubate at room temperature for 5-30 min. 3.4 Washing and Observation Aspirate the dye, wash 2-3 times with fresh medium (5 min each), and observe under a fluorescence microscope. |
Enzyme Assay |
Synaptosomes can be loaded with mag-fura-2 without significant perturbation of their ATP content by incubation for 10 min at 37 degrees C with 10 microM mag-fura-2 acetoxymethyl ester in Hanks'-HEPES buffer (pH 7.45). The intrasynaptosomal free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) was found to be dependent on external Mg2+ concentration, increasing from 0.8 to 1.25 mM when the concentration of Mg2+ in the incubation medium increased from 1 to 8 mM. Dissipation of the Na+ gradient across the plasma membrane of synaptosomes by treatment with the Na+ ionophore monensin (0.2 mM) or with veratridine (0.2 mM) and ouabain (0.6 mM) produced a moderate increase of [Mg2+]i, from 1.0 to 1.2-1.3 mM in an incubation medium containing 5 mM Mg2+. Plasma membrane depolarization by incubation of synaptosomes in a medium containing 68 mM KCl and 68 mM NaCl had no effect on [Mg2+]i. Reversal of the Na+ gradient by incubation of synaptosomes in a medium in which external Na+ was replaced by choline increased [Mg2+]i up to 1.6 and 2.2 mM for extrasynaptosomal Mg2+ concentrations of 1 and 8 mM, respectively. We conclude that a Na+/Mg2+ exchange operates in the plasma membrane of synaptosomes. In the presence of Mg2+ in the incubation medium, extrasynaptosomal ATP, but not ADP or adenosine, increased [Mg2+]i from 1.1 +/- 0.1 up to 1.6 +/- 0.1 mM. The nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue adenosine 5'-(beta gamma-imido)triphosphate antagonized the effect of ATP, but had no effect by itself on [Mg2+]i. It is concluded that Mg2+ transport across the plasma membrane of synaptosomes is modulated by the activity of an ecto-ATPase or an ecto-protein kinase [1].

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
