Detection of total RPA (1 : 250; Millipore) and was performed as described previously.36 (link) GBM cells were grown on coverslips and fixed 24 h after plating. Cells were then immunostained for RPA. Secondary detection was accomplished using Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (Invitrogen). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. Images were taken using a Leica DM4000 Upright microscopy (Leica). Slides were scanned with the ScanR screening station and data acquired analyzed using ScanR analysis software (Olympus, Hamburg, Germany). Signal was normalized to DAPI per cell.

DNA damage repair was assessed by single-cell electrophoresis assay under alkaline conditions as previously described53 (link) (Trevigen, Gaithersburg, MD, USA). Briefly, cells were resuspended to 1 × 105 cells/ml, mixed with agarose (1 : 10) and plated on comet slides. Cells were lysed and placed in alkali unwinding solution. After electrophoresis, DNA was stained with sybr gold DNA stain (Invitrogen). Images were taken using a Leica DM4000 Upright microscopy (Leica, Buffalo Grove, IL, USA). Analysis was done using CASPLab software (CASPLab.com).40 (link)

Cells or 10 µm thick slices of xenografted brain tissue were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and immunolabeled using the following antibodies: DRP1 (BD Biosystems), phospho-DRP1S616 (Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA), TOM20 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA), OLIG2 (R&D Systems), and SOX2 (R&D Systems). Primary antibodies were incubated overnight at 4°C, followed by species appropriate secondary antibodies (Alexa 488 and 568; Invitrogen Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR) with incubation for 1 hour. Nuclei were stained with DAPI, and slides were then mounted using Fluoromount (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA). Images were taken using a Leica Titan confocal or DM4000 Upright microscopy.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
