Luciferase activity of CBR-labeled CAR T cells (CARM5-CBR and CAR19-CBR; donor ND500) was tested before use in in vitro and in vivo experiments. Therefore, cells were seeded in a 96-well plate, and relative light units were measured using Synergy H4 hybrid multimode microplate reader (BioTek). Unlabeled CAR T cells (CARM5 and CAR19; donor ND517) and R10 medium only were used for control. For luciferase-based killing assay using the luciferase-labeled human leukemia cell line K562-meso/K562-CD19, CAR T cells were added to tumor cells at an effector:target cell ratio of 60:1, 20:1, 6:1, and 2:1, as indicated in the figure legends. Twenty-four hours later, luminescence was measured using Synergy H4 hybrid multimode microplate reader (BioTek). Tumor cells only and medium only were used for controls. Percentage of specific lysis was calculated using the following formula: % specific lysis = 100 × [(experimental data − spontaneous cell death)/(maximum cell death − spontaneous cell death)].

Cell viability assay was performed on cells cultured in 96-well plates, incubated for 3 h in the dark, at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO 2 , with a buffered solution that contains highly purified resazurin (Sigma-Aldrich). Cell viability was measured as turnover of resazurin to fluorescent resorufin by metabolically active cells. Fluorescence (excitation 530 nm/emission 590 nm) was detected with a Synergy H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments Inc., VT).
Alternatively, cell viability was determined by quantification of ATP present in metabolically active cells, using the CellTiter-Glo 3D cell viability assay (Promega, WI). The assay was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions in 96-well culture plates (Greiner Bio-One). For quantitative analysis, an ATP standard curve was generated immediately prior to adding the CellTiter-Glo reagent. Luminescence signal was detected using a Synergy H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments).

Prevention of virus spread. 5 × 104 immune-like designer cells (ALICECas9/ALICEAb/ALICECas9+Ab) or HEK-293T cells (Control) per well incubated with EGFP-labeled HSV-1 (MOI = 5) for 3 h were then separately seeded on transwell polycarbonate membrane inner chambers with an 8 μm pore size (Corning, cat. no. 3428), and then cocultured with HEK-293T cells (5 × 104 cells/well) cultured for 18 h on transwell outer chambers. After 48 h of co-incubation, the fluorescence intensity of HEK-293T cells on outer chambers was detected by the Synergy™ H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments Inc.).
Prevention of virus infection. HEK-293T cells (5 × 104 cells/well) seeded on the transwell outer chambers, cultured for 18 h, and then infected with EGFP-labeled HSV-1 (MOI = 5) for 3 h. After adding fresh media, the infected cells were cocultured with immune-like designer cells (ALICECas9/ALICEAb/ALICECas9+Ab) or HEK-293T cells (Control) (5 × 104 cells/well) seeded on the transwell polycarbonate membrane inner chambers with an 8-μm pore size (Corning, cat. no. 3428). After 48 h of co-incubation, the fluorescence intensity of individual cells on the transwell polycarbonate membrane inner chambers was detected by the Synergy™ H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments Inc.).

HepG2 cells were cultured in 96-well plates and transfected with indicated siRNAs. Twenty-four hours after the transfection, cell culture media were replaced by media containing the OCR fluorescence probe (Abcam, OCR kit) and cultured for 24 hours. Media was changed to recording media; phenol-red free DMEM (Sigma Aldrich) containing 10mM HEPES-pH7.0, 3.5g/L D-glucose and 10% FBS. Florescence was continuously measured every 2.5 min or 5 min by with a SynergyTM H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek). For ECAR, transfected cells were cultured for 48 hours, and culture media was changed to glycolysis buffer containing probe (Abcam, ECAR kit). Florescence was measured every 1.5 min using a SynergyTM H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek).

The dopamine concentrations in serum and culture media were measured using the Dopamine ELISA Kit specific for fish (Cusabio, China, https://www.cusabio.com/) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The 96-well microtiter plate provided in this kit was pre-coated with anti-dopamine monoclonal antibody, and no signification cross-reactivity or interference between dopamine and its analogs was observed. The precision of the assay was determined by the repeated measurement of control or experiment samples. Both positive and negative controls (phosphate buffer solution (PBS)-only and blank, respectively) were analyzed in this assay. After all reactions, the optical density of each well was measured at 450 nm within 10 min of reaction termination using a Synergy H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek, USA). The dopamine concentration of each sample was determined according to a standard curve.

Male Kunming mice were randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 5 mice per group). The first group (CON) was untreated. The second group (SOD) was injected with 0.5 mL of FITC-labeled SOD (2 kU/mL) intraperitoneally and the other group (GST-TAT-SOD) received intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mL of the FITC-labeled recombinant protein GST-TAT-SOD (2 kU/mL). Three hours after injection, all animals were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. The liver, spleen, lung, brain, and kidney were weighed and 10% homogenates were prepared with ice-cold saline using a homogenizer, respectively. The fluorescence of tissue homogenates from organs was determined with a Synergy H4 Hybrid Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT). To normalize fluorescence, the protein contents of the 10% homogenates were determined by BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo, USA) following manufacturer's directions. Fluorescence was corrected for background signal and normalized for protein content and expressed as fluorescence/μg of protein.

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.
