Platelet-poor plasma was prepared from blood collected into 0.106 mM trisodium citrate, by double centrifugation at 2500 g for 15 minutes. Cellular vesicles were either labeled directly in the plasma or after ultracentifugation of platelet-poor plasma at 100,000 g for 1 hour at 4°C. Vesicles were labeled using the QTracker cell labelling kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, California), which uses a targeting peptide to deliver QDot nanocrystals across the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm.15 (link) Briefly, 2 μL of a 0.625 nM solution of QTracker quantum dots were added to 200 μL of plasma or plasma vesicle pellet resuspended in PBS and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. NTA analysis was performed using the NanoSight NS500 instrument as described above.

Microspot-coated coverslips were mounted onto a transparent parallel-plate flow chamber (50 μm depth, 3 mm width and 20 mm length), and pre-rinsed with HEPES buffer pH 7.45 containing 0.1% BSA. Anticoagulated whole-blood samples (400–500 μl) were perfused through the flow chamber for a time period sufficient for full-thrombus formation on collagen I spots, that is, 6 min at 150 s−1, 4 min at 1,000 s−1 and 3.5 min at 1,600 s−1. Where indicated, blood samples were preincubated for 5 min with DiOC6 (0.5 μg ml−1), and fluorescence images were recorded from the microspots during blood perfusion. In other cases, thrombi formed after blood flow were poststained by 2-min perfusion (1,000 s−1) with colour-selected combinations of the following platelet activation markers: FITC-labelled anti-fibrinogen mAb (1:100), FITC-labelled anti-P-selectin mAb (1.25 μg ml−1) and/or AF647-annexin A5 (0.25 μg ml−1), all in HEPES buffer pH 7.45 supplemented with 0.1% BSA. After 2 min of staining (stasis), unbound label was removed by a short perfusion with the same HEPES buffer. No fixative was used.
To assess the role of thrombin on thrombus formation under high-shear flow conditions, tissue factor (500 pM) was immobilized together with a dual coating of vWF with fibronectin or collagen-I. Corn trypsin inhibitor (5 μg ml−1) was present in the blood collecting tube to inhibit the contact activation pathway of coagulation. Blood was drawn on 0.32% trisodium citrate and Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro (5 mg ml−1) was added to block fibrin polymerization and thus clot formation. During the flow perfusion, the blood was recalcified with 6.3 mM CaCl2 and 3.2 mM MgCl2 to allow thrombin to be formed via co-coated tissue factor. Platelet activation markers were determined as described for the noncoagulating conditions.

The T. reesei Δtku70 strain [20 (link)] was used for transformation in order to achieve a high efficiency in homologous integration of the deletion cassettes. The protoplast transformation was carried out as previously described [13 (link)]. For transformation 2.5 μg of purified deletion cassette fragment was used. Transformants were grown on selective minimal medium (1 g/liter MgSO4*7H2O, 10 g/liter 1% KH2PO4, 6 g/liter (NH4)2SO4, 3 g/liter trisodium citrate*2H2O, 10 g/liter glucose, 20 ml/liter 50x trace elements solution (0.25 g/liter FeSO4*7H2O, 0.07 g/liter ZnSO4*2H2O, 0.1 g/liter CoCl2*6H2O, 0.085 g/liter MnSO4*H2O), 2% (wt/vol) agar; all chemicals were from Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, USA).
The protocol for electroporation of T. reesei was adapted from patent application US2010/0304468. Spores of T. reesei Δtku70 were harvested from a freshly sporulated 90 mm malt extract agar plate and suspended in 1.1 M sorbitol. Spores were washed twice, resuspended in 100 μl 1.1 M sorbitol and cooled on ice. 75 μl of cold spore suspension was mixed with 10 μg of vector of interest. For electroporation we used an Electroporation System ECM® 630 (BTX Instrument Division Harvard Apparatus, Holliston, USA). 1.8 kV, 800 Ω and 25 μF were used as setting for the ECM® 630 device. Thereafter one volume of the reaction mixture (consisting of spore suspension plus deletion cassette) of YEPD (1% (w/v) yeast extract, 2% (w/v) peptone, 1% (w/v) glucose) and four reaction volumes 1.1 M sorbitol were added and mixed. For regeneration the whole mixture was incubated over night at room temperature. Thereafter, spores were streaked out on plates containing selection medium.
Compared to the classical protoplast transformation technique [13 (link)] transformation by electroporation is less time consuming, easier to perform and the efficiency of this method was comparable to that of protoplast transformation.
Putative deletion strains were tested for integration of the construct by PCR using primer pyr4Sc (inside in the selectable marker gene pyr4) and the gene-specific primer, geneSc (outside from the transformation cassette) (supplementary file 1). Successful homologous integration results in a specific amplicon (1400 - 2000 bp's, depending on the gene) (supplementary file 1) and no amplification was possible with T. reesei Δtku70 genomic DNA (data not shown).

The standard chromosome spreading protocol has been described previously for our laboratory (Lenzi et al., 2005 (link)). The nuclear contents of whole-mount spermatocytes (or oocytes) were displayed by drying down a cell suspension, in hypotonic buffer, from either testis, or ovary, in 1% paraformaldehyde containing 0.15% Triton X-100 (Peters et al., 1997 (link)). Whole testes or ovaries were incubated on ice for 60 min in hypotonic extraction buffer (HEB; 30 mM Tris, pH 8.2, 50 mM sucrose, 17 mM trisodium citrate dihydrate, 5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM DTT, and 0.5 mM PMSF). Either a one-inch length of tubule, or a whole ovary, were placed in a 20-μl drop of 100 mM sucrose, pH 8.2, the tissue was macerated, and a second 20-μl drop of sucrose solution was added and the cell suspension was pipetted up and down several times. Remnant pieces of tubule were removed. Cleaned slides were dipped in the paraformaldehyde and Triton X-100 solution, and most liquid was drained off, such that only enough liquid remained to coat the slide. 20 μl of the cell suspension was added in one corner and the cells were slowly dispersed, first in a horizontal direction and then vertical. The remaining 20 μl of cell suspension was used to make a second slide and both were placed in a humid chamber to dry slowly at RT for 2 h. The slides were washed three times for 1 min in 0.4% Kodak Photo-Flo 200 and air dried for at least 15 min. For EM preparations, to make the SCs accessible to immunogold grains, the slides were DNaseI treated (1 μl/ml of DMEM) before being air dried (Moens et al., 2002 (link)). The slides were washed and blocked (three times for 10 min each) in PBS and incubated in primary antibodies overnight at RT in a humid chamber. Primary antibodies were used at varying concentrations, and generally a 10-fold higher concentration was used for EM than immunofluorescence. After washes, slides were incubated in secondary antibodies, conjugated to either fluorochrome or colloidal gold (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories), for 2 h at 37°C. After washes the slides were mounted with ProLong Antifade (Invitrogen) for fluorescence microscopy. Images were captured on a Olympus IX81 microscope attached to a 12-bit Cooke Sensicam CCD instrument and sent to IP Lab software.
For EM, slides were incubated in 4% alcoholic phosphotungstic acid for 15 min, followed by three 1-min washes in 95% ethanol, to enhance visualization of MNs. Slides were air dried and then dipped in 0.25% formvar (Electron Microscopy Sciences) and air dried under glass. The plastic was scored, treated with 25% hydrofluoric acid, and floated off in water with attached cells. Plastic was transferred to EM grids and used for transmission EM (JEOL 1200EX).

The synthesis of GNP was carried out using the trisodium citrate method, following a previously described protocol [34 (link),57 (link),77 (link)]. To initiate the synthesis, a solution of 26.2 mM trisodium citrate dihydrate (Na3C6H5O7·2H2O; molecular weight: 294.10) was prepared in distilled water. Simultaneously, chloroauric acid (HAuCl4, 2 mM) was dissolved in 10 mL of boiled distilled water, and 4 mL of the prepared trisodium citrate dihydrate solution was added to it. The reaction mixture, composed of the combined trisodium citrate dihydrate and chloroauric acid solutions, was boiled for 1.5 h. After boiling, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and then subjected to centrifugation. The supernatant obtained from the centrifugation was collected and used as the GNP solution.
The synthesized GNP underwent several characterizations to assess their properties. ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy was performed to determine the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak. Moreover, the structure and shape of the GNP were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), following a previously reported protocol [78 (link)]. The size of the newly synthesized GNP was determined through the quantification of the polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential, using dynamic light scattering (DLS) techniques as outlined in previous studies [57 (link),77 (link)]. Overall, these characterization methods provided valuable insights into the properties and morphology of the synthesized GNP.

The synthesis of AuNPs was achieved by reducing HAuCl4 with citric acid [37 (link)]. Specifically, AuNPs were synthesized by refluxing a 0.01 wt.% HAuCl4 aqueous solution at 100 °C for 30 min, followed by the addition of a 1 wt.% aqueous solution of trisodium citrate (0.9 mL) and continuing the reflux for an additional 1 h. AuNSs were synthesized using a modified seed-mediated method [38 (link)]. The gold nanoparticle seeds were synthesized using the citrate reduction method mentioned above. The volume of a 1 wt.% trisodium citrate solution added to the HAuCl4 aqueous solution was adjusted to 4 mL to synthesize the gold nanoparticle seeds with a diameter of 12 nm. A 1 mL colloidal aqueous solution of gold nanoparticle seeds was mixed with 100 mL of 0.01 wt.% HAuCl4 aqueous solution, 700 μL of 1 mM hydrochloric acid, and 1 mL of 2 mM silver nitrate. Upon addition of 500 μL of an aqueous solution containing 0.1 M L-ascorbic acid to this mixed solution, AuNSs were synthesized. To prevent aggregation of the AuNSs, 0.7 mL of a 1 wt.% trisodium citrate aqueous solution and 3 mL of a 1 M sodium hydroxide aqueous solution were added, followed by stirring the mixture for approximately 10 min.

The Turkevich synthesis method was adopted using trisodium citrate as a reduction/stabilising agent to synthesise AuNPs. Briefly, 90 mL of 0.5 mM chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) was heated until the sample started boiling and then was immediately reduced with 10 mL of 38.8 mM trisodium citrate (Na3C6H5O7) under controlled stirring conditions (500 rpm). Heating was stopped after a pale-violet colour became evident and the solution was further stirred until a blood-red-coloured suspension of citrate stabilised AuNPs was obtained. A total of 29 mL of AuNPs nanosuspension (500 µg/mL) was then incubated with l ml of 6.25 µM γ-Gl solution in double distilled water. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 30 min at ambient temperature and the resultant protein-coated as well as protein -tabilised gold nanoparticles were obtained.
