cells on glass cover slips. The cells were treated with various concentrations
of TB (0.5, 5, and 50 μM) and incubated overnight at 37 °C.
Similarly, another set of cells treated with various concentrations
of TB were irradiated with red light for 10 min and incubated at 37
°C. The cells were fixed with absolute methanol for 20 min at
−20 °C. After fixation, cells were permeabilized by 0.2%
Triton X-100. After 3 subsequent washes of PBS, the cells were incubated
with 5% horse serum for 1 h. The cells were incubated with the anti-tubulin
(Thermo PA1-41331) and K9JA (Dako A0024) antibody. After overnight
incubation, the cells were incubated with Alexa Fluor 488 (A11034)-
and Alexa Fluor 555 (A32727)-tagged secondary antibodies. The nucleus
was stained with DAPI. The cells were scanned by a Zeiss Axio observer
7.0, apotome 2.0 inverted microscope using 63× magnifications
in oil immersion and at 40% light intensity.
