Cells were cultured in poly-l-Lysine-coated (R&D Systems, Wiesbaden-Nordenstadt, Germany) 6-well or 96-well plates for 24 hrs and then treated with gemcitabine at 0, 25 or 50 nM for 6 or 24 hrs, respectively. Next, cells were stained with 5,5′,6,6′-tetrachloro-1,1′,3,3′-tetraethylbenzimidazol-carbocyaniniodide (JC-1) solution (Sigma-Aldrich) at a final concentration of 25 μg/ml for 30 min. Fluorescence was measured employing a CytoFluor 4000 plate reader at 485 nm (excitation) and at 530 and 580 nm (emission). The ratio of green and red fluorescence signals served as surrogate readout for the mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) independent of the mitochondrial mass. For fluorescence imaging, cells were grown directly on slides, treated as described above and pictures taken using the Zeiss Axiovert 135 TV fluorescence microscope (Carl Zeiss). For FACS analysis, cells were harvested and analysed using the Accuri C6 Flow Cytometer® (BD Biosciences). Qualitative and quantitative data were recorded through CFlow Plus software (BD Biosciences). Valinomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) or carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP, Sigma-Aldrich) served as negative controls. All experiments were performed at least in triplicate.

The detection of changes in the inner electrochemical Δψm in living cells was performed as described previously (35 (link)), using the cationic, lipophilic JC-1 dye (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). Carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA), a mitochondrial potential disrupter, was used as a control. The melanoma A375 cells were pre-treated with secosteroids at a concentration of 100 nM and then exposed to 2.4 and 12 µM cisplatin or 2.0 and 10 µM dacarbazine for an additional 3 h, or to 75 nM hydrogen peroxide for 1-3 h. Following the treatment with the selected compounds, the cells were harvested and suspended in 1 ml PBS at room temperature. CCCP solution in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) was added to the positive control tube only (2 µM final concentration) and the cells incubated at 37°C for 5 min. JC-1 solution (2 µM in DMSO) was added to all tubes and the cells were incubated at 37°C for 15 min, then centrifuged at 1,000 × g for 10 min at room temperature, and resuspended in 500 µl PBS. The samples were kept on ice until they were analyzed on the FACSCalibur flow cytometer using the CellQuest Pro analysis software.

Phenotypic evaluation of the efflux pump in NDM-5-producing K. pneumoniae was assessed by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for ciprofloxacin and meropenem before and after exposure to the efflux pump inhibitor (EPI), carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) (Sigma-Aldrich, Dorset, UK) at a concentration of 20 mg/L. If the MIC values decreased 4-fold or greater in the presence of EPI, this was defined as a significant inhibition effect.22 (link)

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.
