All cell lines were authenticated by short tandem repeat profiling and routinely tested for mycoplasma contamination. Primary patient-derived samples were obtained from patients attending the University Hospital of Leicester, UK. Local ethical approval (Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and Rutland REC06/Q2501/122) and patients’ consent were obtained through the Haematological Tissue Bank of the Ernest and Helen Scott Haematological Research Institute, Leicester, UK. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from the blood of patients presenting in leukemic phase and the CellTiterGlo assay (Promega, Mannheim, Germany) was used to assess these cells’ viability.

BH3 Profiling was performed using the iBH3 plate-based method as previously published (56 (link)). In brief, cell lines were seeded at a density of 1 x 106 cells/mL 24 hours before profiling. Four million cells of each cell line were pelleted at 300 x g for 5 minutes and resuspended in 2mL MEB-P25 (150mM Mannitol, 10mM HEPES-KOH pH 7.5, 150mM KCl, 1mM EGTA, 1mM EDTA, 0.1% BSA, 5 mM Succinate, 0.25% Polaxamer 188[Fisher, MT61161RM]). Cells were permeabilized with digitonin (Sigma, D5628) exposed to BH3 peptides for 60 minutes at 25°C and mitochondrial Cytochrome C release was measured by flow cytometry using a FITC-conjugated antibody (BioLegend, 983502). BH3 peptides were synthesised by New England Peptide using published sequences (100 (link)). The Bcl-XL-selective inhibitor A-1331852 (Selleckchem, S7801), the Bcl-2-selective inihibtor ABT-199 (Selleckchem, S8048) and the MCL-inhibitor AZD5991 (Selleckchem, S8643) were used at a concentration of 10 μM. Results were only deemed valid where cell cytochrome C release in presence of DMSO control was <10% and cytochrome C release in presence of 50ug/mL(25uM) Alamethicin (Enzo, BML-A150-0005) was >90%.

For induction of tumor cell apoptosis, the BC cell line Cal51 was treated with 70nM paclitaxel (Sigma-Aldrich) plus 100nM of the BCLxL antagonist A1331852 (SelleckChem) for 24h, as previously described in (24 (link)). Meso13 cells were treated with 1.6 µg/ml cisplatin (Merck) and 80 µM pemetrexed (Sigma-Aldrich) for 72h, as previously described in (16 (link)). Apoptotic and control untreated cells were then harvested, washed and labelled with 1µg/ml of the pH sensitive dye pHrodo® (Incucyte pHrodo Red cell labelling Kit for phagocytosis, Sartorius, 4649) following the manufacturer’s protocol. In parallel, differentiated macrophages were seeded at 104 cells in 96-well plates in 200µl of complete medium and treated with 10µg/ml αChemR23 or hIgG1 antibodies for 24h at 37°C. Then, labelled apoptotic or untreated cancer cells were added to macrophages at a ratio of 1:5 for 24h and phagocytosis was measured by live cell imaging using Incucyte® technology (Sartorius). Phagocytosis was quantified using fluorescence intensity (“Total integrated intensity”) in integrated software.

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.
