For determination of localization of mitochondrial stress proteins in chondrocytes, a modified Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos kit (Beyotime, China) was used according to manufacturer’s instructions to label mitochondria, at an excitation of 579 nm and an emission of 599 nm. Cultured cells were washed thrice with PBS and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. Cells were first treated with CMXRos for 20 min. The cells were permeabilized for 10 min with 0.1% Triton X-100 and blocked with 5% BSA for 30 min at room temperature. Next, the cells were stained with anti-HSP10, anti-ClpP, or anti-LONP1 antibodies (1:500; Bioss, Beijing, China) with 1% BSA overnight at 4 °C. The next day, the cells were washed three times with PBS for 5 min, incubated with the corresponding fluorescent-labeled secondary antibody (FITC, 1:200 Boster, Wuhan) for 1 h in the dark, washed three times with PBS for 5 min, and counterstained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) for 5 min. Images were captured using a confocal microscope (Zeiss, Germany). FITC was analyzed with excitation at 495 nm and emission at 591 nm. DAPI was analyzed with excitation at 353 nm and emission at 465 nm.

Human hepatoma HepG2 cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium (DMEM) containing 10% fetal bovine serum at 37 °C in an incubator with 5% CO2 and 95% air. The OTA standard was dissolved in DMSO. HepG2 cells were treated with different concentrations of OTA, and the IC50 value was determined. The optimal concentration was selected for subsequent experiments, and the control group was exposed to DMSO only. The cells were treated with OTA, degradation products, and zymotic fluid to detect various cell parameters. Cell viability was assessed with the CCK-8 kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). The cell viability (CV) was calculated as follows:
AS was the experimental group, AC was the control group, and AB was the blank group.
Cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) activity and mitochondrial membrane potential were assessed with the ROS Assay kit and the Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China).

MMP detection was performed by Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos kit (Beyotime, C1049B). After treatment with PS-MPs for 24 h, the cells were incubated with Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos (50 nM) for 20 min at 37°C. The cells were then washed thrice with PBS before the detection of red fluorescence intensity by CLSM (Olympus FV3000) and quantified by ImageJ software.
ATP Content Assay Kit (Solarbio, BC0300) was used for ATP content assay. Briefly, the cell were lysed and centrifuged at 12,000 r/min at 4°C for 5 min, and supernatant were then collected. The ATP content was determined according the manufacture’s instruction. The samples were measured by a microplate reader (Thermo Scientific, Multiskan FC).
The detection of mtROS was performed by MitoSOX™ Green reagent (Thermo Fisher, M36008). TM4 cells were seeded in 6-well plate and exposed to PS-MPs for 24 h. Followed by washing with PBS, the cells were incubated with 10 µM MitoSOX™ for 20 min at 37°C. The fluorescent images were visualized by CLSM (Olympus FV3000) and quantitative analysis by ImageJ software.

Mitophagy is accompanied by the attenuation of mitochondrial membrane potential. The effect of CA on the mitochondrial membrane potential of bladder cancer cells was detected by Mito-Tracker Red CMXRos kit (Beyotime, China, C1049B) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Xenograft in nude mice 10 six-week-old BALB/C-nude mice were injected subcutaneous with 10 7 bladder cancer SW780 cells.
When the tumor grew to 100mm 3 , the mice were randomly divided into two groups with 5 mice in each group. The CA-treatment group was intraperitoneally injected once every 2 days at a dose of 8 mg/kg (CA was rst dissolved in DMSO and then dissolved in corn oil), while the control group was given DMSO and corn oil at the same volume at the same IP injection frequency. After administration, the tumor volume was measured every 2 days and the mice were weighed every 3 days. After 10 doses injection, the mice were sacri ced, and the subcutaneous tumors were taken, photographed and weighed, then xed with 10% formalin, dehydrated and made into para n blocks for subsequent studies.

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.
