Mitophagy Imaging in MEFs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MEFs were maintained in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 U/mL streptomycin at 37°C and 5% CO2. Glucose and acetoacetate containing media were made as previously described (Mishra et al., 2014 (link)). For mitophagy experiments, cells were plated on Nunc Lab-Tek II Chambered Coverglass slides (155409, Thermo) in DMEM-based media. After cells had adhered, they were washed with PBS and glucose- or acetoacetate-containing medium was applied, after which cells were allowed to grow for 4 days and then imaged. Because cells grow more slowly in acetoacetate medium, a four-fold excess of cells was plated relative to glucose medium so that both samples were at the same density on the day of imaging.

Sperm Isolation and Capacitation Protocol

Cauda epididymides of Mffgt and WT male littermates were dissected into 0.5 mL modified Tris-buffered medium (mTBM) pre-warmed to 37°C and 5% CO2. mTBM was composed of 113.1 mM NaCl, 3 mM KCl, 7.5 mM CaCl2, 5 mM sodium pyruvate, 11 mM glucose, 1 mM caffeine, and 20 mM Tris., as described before [29 (link)]. Sperm were released by mincing the tissue with a 26-gauge needle and incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 15 minutes to allow for swim out. After incubation, the tissue was removed, and the fluid was mixed gently and collected into 1 mL Eppendorf tubes. Sperm were washed twice by gentle centrifugation at 833 g for 5 minutes, resuspended in 0.5 mL mTBM, then incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 30 minutes for capacitation. Sperm were plated at 5×105 sperm/mL in Nunc Lab-Tek II Chambered Coverglass slides (154852, Thermo), and videos were acquired as described above.

Confocal Imaging of UV-Induced Disassembly

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All DIC microscopy analysis was performed using the Zeiss Spinning Disk Confocal microscope (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) with 63× oil-immersion objective and four-well Nunc Lab-Tek II chambered coverglass slides (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Massachusetts, USA). For disassembly analysis of UV-treated THP1 monocytes, cells were added to chambers pre-coated with 1% poly-l-lysine (Sigma-Aldrich) and allowed to adhere before UV irradiation. Time-lapse microscopy was performed by collecting images every 2 min over 4 h at 37 °C, 5% CO2. Imaging of PR8-infected THP1 monocytes was performed by collecting images ~24 h p.i. All imaging processing and data analysis were performed using ZEN imaging software (Zeiss).

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.
