Chamber slides were pre-coated with poly-L-ornithine (Sigma Aldrich, USA) and 2x104 single cells were seeded per well 4 hours before the actual experiments. To staining these cells, the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) and incubated at room temperature. Then blocking solution (5% NHS and 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS) was added at room temperature for 1 hour. And then the cells were stained with antibodies diluted in antibody dilution buffer (1% BSA and 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS). The following antibodies were used as primary antibodies: anti-FoxM1 (Santa cruz, USA); anti-Sox2 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN); anti-Nestin conjugated to Alexa-647 (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA); anti-pH2AX (Millipore, Billerica, MA); anti-GFAP (Millipore, Billerica, MA); anti-O4 (Millipore, Billerica, MA); anti-Tuj1 (Millipore, Billerica, MA), anti-NeuN (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Analysis was performed using confocal LSM 700 (Carl Zeiss, Germany).

H9C2 cells were fixed with 4% PFA, permeabilized with 0.5% Triton, blocked with 3% BSA and incubated with anti‐vinculin (Sigma) or anti‐pH2A.X (Millipore) overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody was Alexa‐Green‐488 goat anti‐mouse (Invitrogen). Images were acquired using epifluorescence microscopy (DM600 microscope; Leica). For mitophagy detection, EGFP‐LC3 plasmid and MitoID (Enzo) were used to stain autophagosomes and mitochondria, respectively. Image acquisition was performed with an LSM780 laser scanning confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss). For mitochondrial 8‐OH‐dG detection, cells were fixed with methanol for 30 min at −20°C, permeabilized with 0.2% Triton and treated with RNase A at 37°C for 1 hr, followed by denaturation with ice‐cold 25 mM NaOH in 50% ethanol, as previously described (Ohno, Oka, & Nakabeppu, 2009). After blocking with 10% BSA, the cells were incubated with mouse anti‐8‐OH‐dG (clone 483.15; Millipore) overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody was goat anti‐mouse Alexa 488.

Dorsal skin sections (5 µm) were deparaffinized 2×10 min then hydrated 1×5 min each through graded ethanol (100%, 95%, 70%, 0%). Antigen retrieval was by incubation in 10 mM sodium citrate, pH 6.0 for 15 min at 95° C, then ambient temperature (in solution) for 20 min before water rinse. Endogenous peroxidases were quenched in 3% hydrogen peroxide, 5 min. Slides were then blocked, 20 min in TBS-T (containing 0.02% Tween 20) + 4% BSA. Primary antibody incubations were done at 4° C using anti-pH2AX (Millipore) diluted 1:200. Secondary antibody incubations used anti-mouse IgG Alexa Fluor 488 (Life Technologies) diluted 1:1000. Both antibodies were diluted into blocking buffer. Then slides were rinsed and washed 2×5 min in TBS-T, followed by 10 min incubation in 0.5 µg/ml DAPI. Slides were then dehydrated 1×5 min each through graded ethanol, then coverslip mounted (Fluoroshield, Sigma). Slides were imaged on a Carl Zeiss Axioplan2 microscope with AxioVision Release 4.5 software.

Cells were harvested and centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 5 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was removed, Buffer WCE 2X (100 mM TrisHCl pH 6.8, 4% SDS, 200 mM DTT) was added to resuspend the cell pellet, boiled for 10 min and then added an equal volume of SDS-PAGE Sample Loading Buffer [2X] (100 mM TrisHCl pH 6.8, 4% SDS, 200 mM DTT, 20% glycerol, 0.004% bromphenol blue) to the mixture. Cell extracts were pelleted at 15,000 g in an Eppendorf centrifuge for 15 min at 4 °C and the supernatants were analyzed by Western blotting according to [55 (link)], using the following antibodies, all diluted in TBS-T: anti-p-p53 (Ser 15; 1:1000, Santa Cell Signaling), anti-p53 (1:1000, Santa Cruz), anti-p-H2AX (Ser 139; 1:1000, Millipore), anti-SUV39H1 (44.1; 1:1000, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), anti-TDP-43 (1:5000, Proteintech), anti-H3k9me3 (1:1000, Abcam ab8898), anti-H3K9me2 (1:500, Abcam ab1220), anti-actin-HRP-conjugated (1:5000, Santa Cruz Biotechnology). These primary antibodies were detected using HRP conjugated anti-mouse and anti-rabbit IgGs and the ECL detection kit (all from GE Healthcare). Band intensities were quantified by densitometric analysis with Image Lab software (Bio-Rad).
All full length uncropped original western blots are available in the Supplementary Materials section.

Excised tumors, kidney and livers were sampled just after sacrifice and representative areas were a) formalin-fixed (24 hours) (Millipore) and paraffin-embedded and (b) snap-frozen in OCT and stored at 80ºC as previously described [32 (link)]. Tissue sections 2μM thick were stained with hematoxilin & eosin and prepared for IHC. Two experienced pathologists (MCGM and EDA) observed the samples under a Leica microscope (Leica Microsystems). IHC was performed as previously described [32 (link)] using the following primary antibodies: anti-pH2AX (Millipore); anti-cleaved PARP (cell signaling); anti-Ki67 (Millipore) and anti-BRCA2 (Millipore). TUNEL assays (Roche) were performed to detect DNA fragmentation and late apoptosis. To quantify the extent of necrosis and the IHC findings, the Dotslide analysis program (Olympus) and the Ariol Image analysis system (Olympus) were used respectively.

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.
