SVF was isolated enzymatically from lipoaspirate tissue by digestion with collagenase [18 (link)]. Briefly, the aspirate was washed three or four times with lactated Ringer's solution and digested with collagenase NB-4 (SERVA Electrophoresis GmbH) in lactated Ringer's solution in standard tissue culture flasks (BD Falcon). Digestion was performed at 37°C with 5% humidified CO2 and continuous agitation for 60 min. The digest was then centrifuged for 20 min at 400 ×g. The supernatant containing adipocytes was discarded and the pellet containing the SVF was washed twice and filtered through a 100 μm cell strainer (BD Falcon). The SVF cells were counted manually using a Neubauer chamber. Viability was determined by staining with 7-aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD) (BD Biosciences) and flow cytometry analysis (BD LSR II, BD Biosciences). Counting and viability analyses were performed in two replicates for each sample.
Verification of the accuracy of manual counting of SVF was performed by direct comparison of the manual counting method against counts obtained using an automated image based cell counter (Tali Image Cytometer, Life Technologies). Difference between the two methods was found to be not significant (see Supplementary Table 1 in Supplementary Material available online at http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2015/109353).

MSC-1 and MSC-2 were primed with 1 μg/ml LPS for 4 h at 37 °C, 5% CO2, followed by stimulation with 300 μM BzATP for 30 min. After stimulation, cells were detached and incubated with 10 μM dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFDA) (Invitrogen) for 30 min at 37 °C. Cells were then analyzed using a Tali Image Cytometer (Life Technologies, Monza, Italy) at 458 nm excitation with a 520/525 nm emission filter. MSC-1 and MSC-2 were also incubated with 500 μM H2O2 (Sigma) for 4 h at 37 °C, absorbance of these samples was considered as 100%. Alternatively, G-MDSC and M-MDSC subsets were incubated at 37 °C in 1%FBS in the presence of 2.5 μM DCFDA for 30 min and evaluated by Gallios cytometer.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HaCaT cells and HGFs were pre-treated with ULH-002 at different concentrations for 2 h. Then, the cells were irradiated with UVA (32 J/cm2). At 2 h after UVA irradiation, cellular ROS generation in cells was detected with the CellROX® Orange or Green Reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s recommended protocol. ROS production in cells was observed by the EVOS® FL Cell Imaging System (Thermo Fisher Scientific). To qualitatively analyze the ROS production, HaCaT cells and HGFs were detached from the culture substratum-surface by 0.025 w/v% trypsin–0.01% EDTA solution and then suspended in PBS (-) at a concentration of 1 × 106 cells/mL. In addition, 25 µL of the cell suspension was infused into a Tali™ Cellular Analysis Slide (T10794, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Tokyo) and analyzed by the Tali™ Image Cytometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Tokyo, Japan).

Live Cell Counting using Image Cytometer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Live cell numbers were counted using an image-based cytometer (Tali® Image Cytometer; Thermo Fisher Scientific) (Tomaru and Kimura, 2016 ). The SYTOX® Green nucleic acid stain (excitation, 504 nm; emission, 523 nm; Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to the cell suspension (1% [v/v]) at a final concentration of 0.5‍ ‍μM. A 25-μL aliquot of culture was placed on a disposable counting slide (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cells were counted according to the manufacturer’s instructions after standing for 10‍ ‍min in the dark at room temperature to allow the cells to settle. The SYTOX® Green stain only permeates cells with compromised plasma membranes, but does not cross the membranes of live cells. Cell counts were performed using the red (excitation filter, 543/22 nm; long-pass emission filter, 585 nm) and green (excitation filter, 466/40 nm; emission filter, 525/50 nm) channels of the image-based cytometer. The cell size range (in a bright field), red fluorescent threshold, green fluorescent threshold, circularity, and sensitivity were set at 3–20‍ ‍μm, 1,200, 1,200, 8, and 9, respectively. Cells with red fluorescence and no green fluorescence were counted as live cells. Cell counts were performed in duplicate for each sample.

Quantifying Oxidative Stress in HaCaT Cells

HaCaT cells were cultivated in DDW- or HW-prepared culture medium for 2 h. The medium was then changed to regular medium containing H2O2 at different concentrations. At 2 h after H2O2 treatment, cellular ROS generation in HaCaT cells was detected using the CellROX® Orange or Green Reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s recommended protocol. ROS production in cells was observed by the EVOS® FL Cell Imaging System (Thermo Fisher Scientific). To qualitatively analyze the ROS production, HaCaT cells were detached from the culture substratum-surface using a 0.25 w/v% trypsin, 1 mmol/L EDTA solution, and then suspended in PBS (−) at a concentration of 1 × 106 cells/mL. 25 µL of the cell suspension was infused into a Tali™ Cellular Analysis Slide (T10794, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and analyzed by the Tali™ Image Cytometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) [19 (link)].

MIA PaCa-2 cells were plated in 24-well glass-bottom plates with EMEM + 10% FBS and left overnight to adhere. Then, 50–80% confluent cells were treated with a medium containing a compound for 30 min, followed by treatment with 5 μg/mL acridine orange or 75 nM Lysotracker Red DND-99 for 30 min. The cells were washed twice with PBS and phenol-free DMEM was provided in the presence or absence of 5 μg/mL Hoechst 33532 for nucleus staining. Measurement was performed on BZ-X810 (Keyence). For cell cytometer analysis, Lysotracker-stained cells were trypsinized with 0.25% trypsin–EDTA for 5 min at 37 °C, and washed twice with phenol-free DMEM. Red fluorescence of the cells was measured using Tali Image Cytometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific). PROTEOSTAT staining (ENZ-51035-K100) was performed on MIA PaCa-2 cells 5 days after the treatment with ARL-17477 or CQ according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
