Fresh or frozen bone marrow cells were used to generate BMDM as previously described [8] (link), using L929-cell conditioned medium (LCCM) as a source of granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor [9] (link). The cells were resuspended in 10 ml bone marrow differentiation media (R20/30), which is RPMI1640 supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, cat. 12657-029), 30% LCCM, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 µg/ml streptomycin, and 2 mM L-glutamine. Cells were seeded in non-tissue culture treated Optilux Petri dishes (BD Biosciences) and incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. Four days after seeding the cells, an extra 10 ml of fresh R20/30 were added per plate and incubated for an additional 3 days. To obtain the BMDM, the supernatants were discarded and the attached cells were washed with 10 ml of sterile PBS. Ten ml of ice-cold PBS were added to each plate and incubated at 4°C for 10 minutes. The macrophages were detached by gently pipetting the PBS across the dish. The cells were centrifuged at 200× g for 5 minutes and resuspended in 10 ml of BMDM cultivation media (R10/5), which is composed of RPMI 1640, 10% fetal bovine serum, 5% LCCM and 2 mM L-glutamine. The cells were counted, seeded and cultivated in tissue culture plates 12 hours before any further experimental procedure.

L929, NIH 3T3, and HeLa-B cells were grown in DME medium (GIBCO) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum.
Centrin cDNA was sub-cloned in the pEGFP-N1 vector (Clontech) and cells were transformed by electroporation. Stable clones expressing the centrin/GFP fusion protein were then isolated from each of the three parental cell lines, by using the limited dilution method in the presence of 500 μg/ml G418. Multiple independent clones, expressing ∼20 times the endogenous level of centrin, were kept for each of the three parental cell lines. The centrioles in all of the clones exhibited a similar behavior to that described here.
Synchronization in early G1 was accomplished by a single thymidine block of 20 h (5 mM thymidine for L929 and 2 mM for HeLa). Mitotic cells were then collected by shakeoff 8 or 20 h after releasing the block (for L929 and HeLa, respectively). Cells were then replated on coverslips and used 2 h later. Synchronization at the G1/S border was accomplished using the double-thymidine block technique. To determine the duration of S and G2 we incubated cells at various times after thymidine washout with 30 μM BrdU for 15 min and then analyzed them by FACS®. The maximum content of S cells (by BrdU incorporation) was reached 1–4 h after release. The maximum number of G2 cells (double DNA content and no BrdU incorporation) was observed ∼5 h after release in L929 cells and 9–10 h in HeLa cells.

wt macrophages were collected in four independent experiments with 8–10-wk-old C57BL/6 mice and two with C57BL/6 × 129Sv mice (six mice per experiment). Basal levels of gene expression in these two strains differed by ≥1.8-fold in only 24 of 13,029 genes 21. Macrophages were also collected in two independent experiments from iNOS-deficient mice 22, phox91-deficient mice 23, and mice deficient in both enzymes 19, all on the C57BL/6 background, and studied side-by-side with wt macrophages. Marrow cells flushed from femurs differentiated into macrophages over 6–8 d in DMEM containing 0.58 g/liter l-glutamine, 1 mM Na-pyruvate, 10% FBS, 10 mM Hepes buffer, 100 U/ml penicillin G, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, and 20% L929 cell-conditioned medium 24. 48 h before infection, the monolayers were washed with PBS and fresh medium (DMEM, 0.58 g/liter l-glutamine, 1 mM Na-pyruvate, 10% FBS, 10 mM Hepes buffer, and 10% L929 cell-conditioned medium) containing 0 or 100 U/ml recombinant mouse IFN-γ (Genentech). 2 × 105 macrophages per well in 24-well plates or 2 × 107 macrophages in 175 cm2 flasks were infected or not with 106 (plates) or 108 (flasks) CFUs of Mtb from early log phase cultures of a low-passage clinical isolate (strain 1254; American Type Culture Collection 51910).

Compounds 15 were dissolved as described in the previous section. The cytotoxicity assay was initially performed against the cell lines L929 (mouse fibroblasts), as well as KB 3.1 (human papillomavirus-related endocervical adenocarcinoma), as described previously [16 (link)]. A detailed protocol, as well as sources of the cell lines, is given in the Supporting Information.
After incubating the cell lines with a serial dilution of the test compounds (final range: 37 to 0.6 × 10−3 µg/mL) for five days, the cells were dyed using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT), which is only converted to its purple formazan derivative by living cells. Then, the intensity of the purple derivative in relation to cells without additive (set to 100% viability) for each concentration of a test compound was quantified. For this, the absorption at 595 nm was measured using a microplate reader to calculate the percentage of cell viability. From this, the half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50, in µM) was calculated.
If an inhibition of cell viability with an IC50 < 50 µM was observed, further cell lines were subjected to the test compounds: PC-3 (human prostate adenocarcinoma), SK-OV-3 (human ovary adenocarcinoma), MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma), A431 (human squamous carcinoma) and A549 (human lung carcinoma).

Mouse hematopoietic stem cells were isolated as described in Banaiee et al., 2006 (link). Hematopoietic cells were differentiated by culturing for 7 days in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 1 mM pyruvate (DMEM complete). DMEM complete media was supplemented with 20% L929 cell supernatant (as a source of macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), 100 U/mL final concentration), 10 units/ml penicillin, and 10 units/ml streptomycin. Following differentiation, BMDMs were washed with PBS, resuspended in DMEM complete with 10% L929 cell supernatant, and plated for infection the following day. Single cell suspensions of Mtb in DMEM complete with 10% L929 added to macrophages at a MOI of 5, 10, 20, or 40, and plates were spun for 5 min at 51 x g. The MOI was verified by plating the inoculum. At 4 hpi, macrophages were washed 3 times with DMEM to remove extracellular bacteria. To enumerate CFU, at specified time points macrophages were lysed with 0.06% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in water and serially diluted in PBS. The cell lysates were plated on 7H11 agar plates supplemented with OADC and glycerol, and CFU were counted after 14–21 days. For qPCR, macrophages were lysed in TRI Reagent (Zymo Research, R2050-1-50), and total RNA was extracted.

The L929 mouse fibroblast cell
line was used for the cytotoxicity assay. Cells were thawed from the
stock and cultured in the medium consisting of 90% DMEM-F12 and 10%
FBS with a supplement of 2 mM l-glutamine in a humidified
5% CO2/95% air environment at 37 °C. Meanwhile, a
representative titanium dioxide membrane with 2 cm2 surface
area was immersed in the cell culture medium and incubated for 72
h at 37 °C. L929 cells were harvested at 80% confluency and seeded
in 96-well plates at 5000 cells/well and then incubated overnight.
The next day, the medium was removed and replaced with the nanomembrane
extract and then allowed for another overnight incubation. 10% DMSO
in cell culture medium was used as the positive control. The next
day, the medium was replaced with 100 μL of fresh medium and
13 μL of MTT solution (1 mg/mL). After 4 h of incubation in
the dark at 37 °C, the medium was removed again, and 200 μL
of isopropanol-HCl was added to each well to dissolve the blue formazan
crystals. After 10 min, the wells were read at 570 nm wavelength,
and the percentage of cell viability was calculated. Cell viability
was defined as 100% for the MTT assay control, and cell growth was
directly proportional to absorbance at a wavelength of 570 nm.

Cytotoxicity was
evaluated according
to the ISO10993-5-2009 regulation, where the L929 cell line was chosen,
and an MTT cell viability assay was performed. To obtain extraction
solutions, samples were cut into square pieces (2 × 2 cm2) and sterilized by UV irradiation for 40 min. Then, samples
were placed in six-well tissue culture plates and filled with a culture
medium (DMEM) with an extraction ratio of 4 cm2/0.666 mL
at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h. L929 cells
were seeded into 96-well culture plates at a density of 6 × 103 cells/well in 100 μL of a culture medium and incubated
for 24 h at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 in air. After this time, culture media were replaced with
100 μL of the sample and control group extracts (the extraction
medium without the sample and only a glass slide were used as control
groups). Cells were examined microscopically after 24 h of incubation
to assess the general morphology of cells. Then, the cells were incubated
with 10 μL of a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium
bromide solution (MTT, 5 mg/mL, Sigma-Aldrich, Germany) for 3 h. Formazan
crystals were dissolved in 100 μL of dimethyl sulfoxide, and
the absorbance (OD) was measured with a microplate reader (Promega
Multireader Glomax) at 560 nm. Cell viability was calculated by the
following equation
Experiments
were performed in triplicate,
and mean OD values were normalized to the control group and represented

The cytotoxicity of the naproxen-based
ILs of L929 cells in vitro was determined using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium
bromide (MTT) assay. Cells were seeded at a density of 1 × 104 cells·mL–1 cells/well (200 μL)
in DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% antibiotic solution
in 96-well plates for 24–48 h at 37 °C. In serum-free
DMEM, wells were rinsed with sterile PBS and treated with various
concentrations of the API-IL samples. Each sample was reproduced three
times, and the cells were cultured for 24 h at 37 °C. Twenty
microliters of MTT (5 mg·mL–1) was added to
each well, and the cells were incubated for 4 h until purple precipitates
were visible under a microscope. Finally, the medium was gently aspirated
from the wells and rinsed with 1× PBS (200 μL). Then we
added dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) (100 μL) to dissolve the formazan
crystals and shook the plate for 5 min. Using a microplate reader
(Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA), the absorbance value of each well
was measured at 490 nm, and the cell viability and IC50 value were calculated using GraphPad Prism 5.0 (USA).
