For microscopy experiments, the samples were fixed in 4% Formaldehyde (Merck) in PBS and mounted onto glass slides (Thermo Scientific) using Prolong Gold mounting medium with DAPI (Invitrogen). Z stacks of 5 images per cell were collected on a Leica SP5 confocal microscope equipped with HyD detectors, using a 63× magnification lens in combination with 2.5–4× digital zoom and represented as maximum z projections. Image processing and fluorescence intensity analysis was performed using ImageJ64 software, and colocalization was expressed in the form of Mander’s overlap coefficients calculated using JACoP. Pixel plot analyses were generated using Leica LASAF software.

CD8+ T cells transduced with MIGR1-G0S2-V5 were cytospun onto glass slides (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts, U.S.A.) and immediately fixed with 1% (vol/vol) paraformaldehyde. Fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% (vol/vol) Triton X-100. Slides were stained with mouse anti-V5 and a mouse-specific secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa Fluor 555 (LifeTechnologies, Grand Island, New York, U.S.A.). Mitochondrial localization was detected with rabbit anti-COX IV (Abcam, Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S.A.) and a rabbit-specific secondary antibody conjugated to Alexa Fluor 488 (LifeTechnologies, Grand Island, New York, U.S.A.). The slides were mounted with a mounting solution containing 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (LifeTechnologies, Grand Island, New York, U.S.A.) to stain the nuclei and analyzed on an Eclipse 90i microscope using the NIS Elements imaging software (Nikon Instruments Inc., Melville, New York, U.S.A.).

For γH2AX immunofluorescence staining, 5x104 cells were seeded on glass slides (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and incubated overnight before adding treatments (Doxorubicin, carboplatin, olaparib). Forty-eight hr later, cells were fixed with formalin 10% (Sigma) for 10 min at room temperature, washed with PBS 1 X and then permeabilized with 0.25% Triton-X100 (Sigma) in PBS 1 X for 15 min. Slides were incubated 1 hr with DAKO blocking solution (Agilent) and incubated overnight at 4 C with anti-phospo-H2AX (1:2000). Cells were then washed three times with PBS 1X-Tween 0.05% followed by incubation with the secondary antibody (1:800; donkey anti-mouse IgG Alexa Fluor 488; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The glass slides were stained with DAPI, washed, and mounted with Fluoromount aqueous mounting medium (Sigma). Stained sections were scanned (Leica) by the molecular pathology core of the CRCHUM and photographs were analyzed using Visomorph viewer software for automatic counting of γH2AX foci.

Microfluidic Device Fabrication for Parallel Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The microfluidic devices were manufactured using standard microfabrication techniques. In brief, a single-layer photoresist design (SU-8; MicroChem, Newton, MA), with a 50-μm-thick layer was patterned on one silicon wafer via a photolithography masks and standard processing, according to the manufacturer’s protocols. The resulting patterned wafer was then used as a mold to produce polydimethylsiloxane (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) devices, which were subsequently, irreversibly bonded to glass slides (1 in. × 3 in.; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The microfluidic design included four channels, each with their own inlet and outlet ports, and one common central imaging area (Supplementary Fig. 1,A and B, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/CCX/A66). This configuration allowed for the simultaneous imaging and analysis of multiple conditions (Supplementary Fig. 1C, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/CCX/A66). The chips were pretreated with a corona plasma gun (Elveflow, Paris, France) prior to sample loading to eliminate the need for fluid pumps.

Histological Analysis of Mouse Skeletal Muscle

TA muscles were dissected from mice, fixed in 4 % paraformaldehyde overnight followed by 70 % ethanol overnight, and then embedded in paraffin following standard protocols. Tissues were cut with a microtome in a cross-sectional orientation through the entire length of the muscle. Cross sections of 5 mm thickness were then mounted onto glass slides (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) and stained with Masson’s trichrome or Picrosirius red following standard protocols. The cross-sectional area was used as a measure of myofiber size, which was produced by semi-automated measurements on stitched whole-section images (Nikon).

Cells (105) were incubated with 200 nM MitoTracker Deep Red dye (Thermo-Fischer Scientific) for 30 min, and transferred to 0.01% poly-L-lysine (Sigma-Aldrich) coated glass slides (Thermo-Fisher Scientific). Next, cells were fixed 15 min in 4% formaldehyde then cold 100% methanol and mounted in ProLongTM Gold antifade medium with DAPI (Invitrogen). Images were acquired using a Zeiss LSM 800 microscope with Airyscan.

Placentas were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 24–36 h following a standard protocol, then dehydrated and embedded in paraffin. Tissue sections (5-μm thickness) were mounted on glass slides (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Rabbit anti-E-cadherin, anti-vimentin, and anti-β-cadherin polyclonal antibodies (1:100; Cell Signaling Technology) were used as primary antibodies, and anti-rabbit IgG (1:200; Sigma-Aldrich) used as a secondary antibody. Sections were mounted onto slides using Gel Mount Aqueous Mounting Medium (Sigma-Aldrich) and examined with an Olympus BX51 microscope.

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.
