KMS-11 cells (seeded 6 × 105 viable cells in each well, 6 replicates for each group) were treated with 5μM ABT-199, 5μM AT-101, or DMSO vehicle control in RPMI medium with 10% FBS for 24 h in a manner previously described by us.4 The Seahorse XF Cell Mito Stress Test Kit (Agilent 103015-100) was used to measuring cell mitochondrial function using the Agilent Seahorse XF96 analyzer following the manufacturer’s instructions (https://www.agilent.com/cs/library/usermanuals/public/XF_Cell_Mito_Stress_Test_Kit_User_Guide.pdf) accessed on 4 April 2022). The assay uses the built-in injection ports on XF sensor cartridges to add modulators of respiration into cell well during the assay to reveal the key parameters of mitochondrial function. The modulators included in this assay kit are Oligomycin, Carbonyl cyanide-4 (trifluoromethoxy) phenylhydrazone (FCCP), Rotenone, and Antimycin. This figure illustrates the injection sequence of these modulators and the parameters that are obtained with this assay.
