293T cells used for lentivirus production were preserved in our lab and cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FBS at 37℃ under 5% CO2.
Hela cell
HeLa cells are a widely used line of immortalized human cervical cancer cells. They were derived from cervical cancer cells taken from the patient Henrietta Lacks in 1951. HeLa cells have been used extensively in medical research, including studies on human diseases, drug discoveries, and cell biology.

Culturing HeLa Cells for Continuity
Generating Stable Cell Lines with GFP-LKB1 and RhoA/Cdc42
To generate HeLa cells stably expressing GFP-tagged LKB1 and constitutively active RhoA or cdc42, wildtype LKB1 and the various LKB1 domains and mutations were cloned into a pEGFP-C1 vector. Empty GFP or the GFP-LKB1 constructs were then subcloned from the pEGFP-C1 vector into a pBabe-puro vector. Constitutively active RhoA (Q63L) and cdc42 (Q61L) were subcloned from a pCDNA3 vector into pBabe-Hygro. The pBabe constructs were then transfected into Phoenix-ampho cells with Lipofectamine 2000 and PLUS reagent (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY). Cells expressing only empty GFP or GFP-LKB1 were selected with 1 μg/ml puromycin, while cells co-expressing the constitutively active RhoA or cdc42 mutants were selected with 1 μg/ml puromycin and 300 μg/ml hygromycin (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA). Proper expression of GFP-LKB1 was verified using IF and Western blot to confirm phenotype and molecular weight. Expression of constitutively active RhoA and cdc42 was confirmed using a Rho-GTPase activity assay comparing the constitutively active mutants to their isogenic partner lines.

Multispectral Imaging of Mitochondria
HeLa cells obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) were cultured and stained with mitotracker as described in our previously reported study43 (link). To mount the sample vertically to be adaptable in our home-built (M -sMx-SPIM) microscopy system, the cell was cultured in a glass bottom dish (Cell Vis, D35-20-1.5-N). After 18–24 h of plating and staining with MitoTrackerTM Red CMXRos, the bottom was filled with a small amount of DMEM solution and then, sealed with a cover slip using clear nail polish. The samples were immediately used for imaging. This is to note that the glass bottom was kept vertically by using a custom-made mounting base on the sample mounting stage (mentioned above).
For the multispectral imaging:
The nuclei of HeLa cells (obtained from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC)) were stained with H2A-mcherry and microtubules were stained with Tubulin-GFP. The cells were grown on a cover slip in a culture dish for two days. DMEM media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Penicillin and streptomycin were used as the growth media. The cells were incubated in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator at C temperature. After 24 h, the cover slip having cells was mounted on a custom-designed mounting stage in a vertical orientation as mentioned above.

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.
