The 15 × 103 cells were plated in triplicate/quadruplicate in 96-well, white, flat-bottom, cell culture-treated assay plates in three independent experiments. After 24 h, normal growth media was replaced with 100 μL of media supplemented with A1mcMMAF (10–100 μg/mL). Forty-eight hours after the first drug exposure, 20 μL of a viability/cytotoxicity substrate containing 10 μL of GF-AFC and 10 μL of bis-AAF-R110 were added to each well (ApoTox-Glo, Triplex Assay; Promega) to enable simultaneous measurement of each parameter with minimal degradation of proteases secreted at early time points. After 30 min at 37 °C, the fluorescence was measured using a Fluostar Optima plate reader (BMG Labtech, Ortenberg, Germany). To measure apoptosis, 100 μL of Caspase-Glo 3/7 reagent was added to each well and incubated at room temperature for 30 min (ApoTox-Glo, Triplex Assay; Promega). Luminescence was then measured using the Fluostar Optima plate reader.

The ApoTox-Glo triplex assay (Promega, G6320) is more complex and is centered on the proteolytic action of biomarkers present in the cell. It was used to evaluate cell viability, cell cytotoxicity, and caspase 3/7 activation (a marker of apoptosis) 24, 48 or 72 h post-irradiation. Briefly, 100 µL of cell suspension (containing 20, 000 cells per 100 µL) was introduced into an opaque-walled 96-well plate and 20 µL of mixed glycyl phenylalanyl-amino fluorocoumarin (GF-AFC) and bis-alanylalanyl-phenylalnyl-rhodamine 100 (bis-AAFR110) substrate (viability/cytotoxicity reagent) was added. This mixture was combined for 30 s by orbital shaking (350 rpm) followed by incubation at 37 °C for 1 h, then fluorescent signals were measured using the PerkinElmer Victor3™ multilabel plate reader at 400EX/505EM (filters for viability) and 485EX/520EM (filters for cytotoxicity). Caspase 3/7 activity was subsequently quantified by adding 100 µL Caspase-Glo® 3/7 reagent to all wells, followed by incubation for 30 min at room temperature and measurement of luminescence in RLU. Background fluorescence was eliminated by subtracting the fluorescence of media without cells.

The ApoTox-Glo triplex assay (Promega, Promega BioSciences, LLC, San Luis Obispo, CA, USA) was performed according to our previously defined procedure22 (link). Briefly, the BV2 microglial cell lines were seeded in 96-well plates (1 × 105 cells/well) in 200 μl of DMEM media. Cells received respective drug treatments, and viability/cytotoxicity reagents containing a GF-AFC substrate and bis-AAF-R110 substrate were added to all wells. Cells were agitated for 30 sec and incubated for 1 hr at 37 °C. Fluorescence spectra were measured at 400/505 nm for viability assays and 485/520 nm for cytotoxicity assays. Caspase3/7 activity was assessed by the addition of caspase-Glo 3/7 reagent (100 μl) to all wells, and luminescence was measured at 485/520 nm to determine caspase activation. The results were calculated as % cell viability, % cytotoxicity, and % caspase-3/7 activity.

Cytotoxicity and Apoptosis Measurement

Viability, cytotoxicity and apoptosis were measured using the ApoTox‐Glo Triplex Assay (Promega, UK) according to manufacturer's instructions. Cells were cultured at 20,000 cells/well in clear‐bottom 96‐well plates (Costar, Corning Life Sciences, NY, USA). Fluorescence and luminescence readings were made using a Tecan plate reader, and data were normalised to the medium‐only sample. To normalise well‐to‐well variability, cytotoxicity and caspase measurements were represented as normalised to viability measurements (dead/live cell ratio and apoptotic/live cell ratio). Cells subjected to 3 h of 1 μM staurosporine treatment were used as positive control.

Cells were cultured seeded in 1 µg/ml anti-human CD40 and 10 ng/ml IL-4 and IL-21 for 48 h. Medium was removed and 1.5 × 105 cells were seeded into 96-well plates in replicates with anti-CD40 and IL-4/IL-21 or controls. ApoTox-Glo Triplex Assay (Promega, Walldorf, Germany) was applied for analysis according to the manufacturer’s recommendation.

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.
