Glucose uptake of the live MPM cells was measured using 2-NBDG as previously described28 (link). Cells are plated in four-well chambered slide for overnight in complete medium. Next day, upon 60% confluency, cells were treated with PFK158 (10 µM, 0–60 min) followed by the incubation with 2-NBDG (150 µg/ml) [Cayman Chemicals, Michigan, USA] for 30 min in the glucose-free medium. Subsequently, cells were washed, mounted, and analyzed in Zeiss LSM510 fluorescence microscope. The fluorescent intensities were calculated using Image J software.

HIFs (1 × 104 cells/well) were seeded onto chamber slides (#30,108, SPL Life Sciences, South Korea) and exposed to TGF-β1 (5 ng/ml) co-incubated with or without TRG/RSG for 24 h, after which the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA). After permeabilization with 0.1% Triton-×100 in 1 × PBS and blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA), the cells were incubated with mouse monoclonal anti-α-SMA antibody (1:500, A2547, Sigma-Aldrich) at 4 °C overnight followed by treatment with goat Alexa488-conjugated anti-mouse IgG antibody (A11029, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL) at room temperature for 2 h. For the staining of actin filaments (F-actin), the cells were incubated with rhodamine-phalloidin (1:200, R415, Invitrogen). After washing, the nuclei were counterstained by Hoechst 33,342 (B2261, Sigma-Aldrich) according to manufacturer’s instructions. The stained sections were immediately covered and examined under a Zeiss LSM510 fluorescence microscope or Zeiss LSM880 confocal laser scanning microscope.

HGFs were cultured for 2 h on G/Z and Y-TZP specimen surfaces before and after aging. After fixation, cell nuclei were stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI) (Yeasen, Shanghai, Shanghai District, China). Images were obtained with an inverted LSM 510 fluorescence microscope (Carl Zeiss, Jena, Tuttlingen, Germany). The adhered cells were analyzed in randomly selected areas in five sections (450 μm × 450 μm) at a magnification of × 200. The cell adhesion rates were determined through the number of adhered cells divided by the total number of seeded cells.

Mice treated with SL. pNASGFP or PBS (control) were sacrificed on the indicated days after bacterial injection. Tumor tissues were embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and stored at −80 °C. Frozen tumor sections (5 μm thick) were made with a cryomicrotome (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and mounted onto glass slides. The slides were blocked with 5 % BSA at room temperature for 1 h, and then incubated overnight at 4 °C with mouse anti-iNOS monoclonal antibody (1:100, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA). After three washes with PBS containing 0.5% Tween-20 (PBS-T), the slides were incubated with Alexa 555-conjugated anti-Rat Ig antibody (1:200, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) in the dark for 1 h. After washing with PBS-T, the slides were mounted in ProLong antifade mounting solution with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole dye (DAPI, Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) and sealed with nail polish. The fluorescence signals of sfGFP (green), iNOS (red), and DAPI (blue) were detected using an LSM510 fluorescence microscope (Zeiss, Jena, Germany), and processed using LSM image 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.
