To characterize NRBMC009 and NRBZLW0047 localization, each were diluted in HL3 medium at concentrations of 500 nM and 1 μM, respectively, and were added to the dissected larva and images acquired after 15 min. For NRBMC009 colocalization studies, ER-Tracker Red 2 μM (BODIPY TR Glibenclamide), MitoTracker Orange CMTMRos 1 μM, LysoTracker Deep Red 2 μM, HCS LipidTOX Deep Red Neutral Lipid Stain 1:100, or CellMask Orange 1 μM (all by Thermo Fisher, respectively #E34250, #M7510, #L12492, #H34477, and #10045) were added, together with NRBMC009 at 500 nM. To verify NRBZLW0047 colocalization with other organelles, it was added on dissected larvae expressing GFP-tagged proteins (Hneu-GFP, Mito-GFP, Lamp-GFP, and mCD8-GFP), or together with BODIPY 493/503 dye 10 μg/ml (#D3922, Thermo Fisher). In order to test tissue autofluorescence, dissected larvae were imaged in HL3 medium without fluorescent probes with identical laser settings of labeled tissues (S1 Fig). Whole larvae images and magnifications were acquired using a Zeiss LSM800 Axio Observer Z1 inverted microscope equipped with a Zeiss Plan-Apochromat 5x/0.15 ph1 or 40x/0.95 objectives, all other images were acquired with a Nikon D-Eclipse C1 confocal microscope equipped with a Nikon Plan Apo 60×/1.40 or a Nikon Plan Apo 40x/1.0 oil immersion objectives.

Adipogenesis Evaluation via Lipid Staining

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After 7 days of adipogenic differentiation, cells were fixed with 4% (vol/vol) paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 15 min at RT and then incubated with 0.5 µM BODIPY® 493/503 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) diluted in PBS or HCS LipidTOX™ Deep Red Neutral Lipid Stain (Thermo Fisher Scientific) 1X diluted in PBS for 20 min at room temperature (RT) in the dark. HCS LipidTOX™ Deep Red Neutral Lipid Stain was used only for GCN5 knockdown experiment in ACM CStCs transduced with GFP‐tagged lentiviral particles, in order to avoid spectral overlap between GFP and BODIPY® 493/503. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Immunofluorescence images were acquired using a Leica SP8‐X confocal microscope, and the fluorescence integrated intensity quantified using Fiji/Image J Software.

Single-cell suspensions from surgically resected CLM tissues from four patients were obtained as described in the previous paragraph. To assess expression of lipid transporters (ABCA1 and ABCG1), ApoE, and CD36, the following antibodies were included in the cocktail: anti-ABCA1 (Invitrogen; rabbit polyclonal), anti-ABCG1 (Novus Biologicals; rabbit polyclonal), anti-ApoE (BioLegend; clone E6D7), and anti-CD36 (BioLegend; clone 5–271). Detection of ABCG1 and ApoE was performed by intracellular staining with BD Cytofix/Cytoperm Solution (BD Biosciences). Cells were acquired on a FACSAria III (BD Biosciences) following the gating strategy shown in Fig. S2.
For lipid staining, cells were stained with the same cocktail used for cell sorting and then incubated with HCS LipidTOX Deep Red Neutral Lipid Stain (ThermoFisher; dilution 1:200) in PBS for 30 min at room temperature. Cells were immediately washed with PBS and acquired by flow cytometer. Lipid content of L-TAMs and S-TAMs was evaluated as mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the dye.
To test lipid uptake, cells were incubated with 0.8 µM of the fluorescent dye BODIPY 558/568 C12 (ThermoFisher) in PBS containing 0.1% BSA (fatty acid–free) for 1 min at 37°C. Cells were immediately washed with cold PBS containing 0.2% BSA and acquired by flow cytometer. Lipid uptake of L-TAMs and S-TAMs was evaluated as MFI of the dye.

Cells were trypsinized and seeded on microscopic cover glasses (24 × 24 mm, Carl Roth GmbH, Germany) in 35 mm Petri dishes (Nunc, Biokom, Janki, Poland). Cells were left to adhere overnight. Cells were then exposed to nsPEF or nsPEF with 1 mM Ca2+ or 2 mM Ca2+, and left for 24 h. After this time, cells were fixed 10 min in 4% paraformaldehyde (Polysciences, Inc., Bergstrasse, Germany) and washed in PBS (BioShop, EPRO, Poland). Cytoskeleton reorganization was determined by immunofluorescent cells’ labeling of F-actin with Alexa Fluor®546 Phalloidin (Thermo Fisher, distributor: Life Technologies, Warsaw, Poland), and intracellular calcium was determined by 4 µM Fluo-4Exc.494/λEm.506 nm, F14201, Thermo Fisher Scientific), lipid droplets by HCS LipidTOX™ Deep Red Neutral Lipid Stain (H34477, Thermo Fisher Scientific). FluorshieldTM with DAPI (4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) was used to visualize the nuclei and to mount the cells, and was excited by a 405 nm-excitation channel. The samples were studied on the Olympus FluoView FV1000 confocal laser scanning microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

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.
