Cell cycle and cell apoptosis analysis was carried out by flow cytometry. Cells (5×105/well) were seeded in 6-well cell culture plates and incubated in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37°C. Twenty-four hours later, cells were harvested with 0.5% trypsin and centrifuged. For cell cycle analysis, cells were fixed in ice-cold 70% ethanol overnight at 4°C. After being washed thrice with cold PBS, cells were resuspended in 500 µl of PBS, and 10 µl RNAseA was added for 5 min. Subsequently, 10 µl PI was added into the cell resuspension solution, and incubated for 30 min at 4°C. The cells were finally washed twice with PBS before analysis. Apoptotic analysis was performed using the Hoechst 33342/PI Apoptosis assay kit (BestBio, Shanghai, China). The samples were washed twice with ice-cold PBS and resuspended in 500 µl staining buffer, and then incubated with 5 µl of Hoechst 33342 and 5 µl of PI in the dark for 20 min at 4°C. The cells were finally washed twice with PBS before analysis. Analysis was performed on MoFlo™XDP High-Performance Cell Sorter (Beckman Coulter) and the data were analyzed with the summit v5.2 Software (Beckman Coulter).

Cells (1 × 105 to 3 × 106) were inoculated in 6-well plates and cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator to the required cell density. Two hours before transfection, serum-free 1640 medium was used. The transfected cells were divided into groups according to the corresponding experiments. After 6 h, the mixed solution was sucked out and replaced with normal culture medium, and culture was continued for 48 h. Referring to the operating instructions of the EdU-647 cell proliferation test kit (Beyotime biotechnology, C0081S), the samples were processed before flow cytometry [28 (link),29 (link)]. Finally, the samples were tested by flow cytometry at a 488 nm excitation wavelength and 520 nm emission wavelength. Cells were analyzed with Moflo XDP High-Performance Cell Sorter (Beckman Coulter).

Single-cell suspensions of cervical cancer tissues or adjacent non-cancerous tissues were prepared. Enzymatic digestion was incubated at 37°C until full digestion had occurred, with oscillations every 10–15 min prior to passing the sample through a 70-μm cell strainer. The resulting cell suspension was centrifuged (Eppendorf 5417C; Eppendorf, Engelsdorf, Germany) at 500 × g for 10 min and resuspended in saline. The cells were fixed in 500 μl paraformaldehyde 4% in Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline (D-PBS) for 20 min at room temperature. Subsequent to washing in D-PBS, the cells were permeabilized with detergents (Triton X-100). The cells were washed twice with D-PBS, and the single-cell suspensions were stained and incubated at 4°C for 30 min with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated OCT-1 (Biorbyt, Cambridge, UK). Isotype controls were performed with an FITC-conjugated rabbit anti-human igG negative control (Biorbyt). All antibodies were used according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Cells were cultured in SC medium minus leucine (−Leu) and harvested at mid‐exponential phase, washed twice with ice‐cold 10 mmol l−1 phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 7.0) and resus
pended in PBS. Samples of 2 × 105 cells were monitored through the FITC (Fluorescein isothiocyanate) channel (excitation and emission wavelengths of GFP were 488 and 507 nm, respectively) (Zhang et al., 2015) via flow cytometer (MoFlo™ XDP High‐Performance Cell Sorter, Beckman Coulter, USA) and analysed with the Kaluza Analysis 2.1 software. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was the sum of fluorescence intensity for each single cell divided by the 2 × 105 analysed cells. Meanwhile, the cells with fluorescence intensity > 2000 a.u. were sorted out as high‐nucleic‐acid content yeast candidates.

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.
