To examine the expression level of γH2AX in the nucleus, cells attached to the coverslip were treated with H2O2 in the presence or absence of mangiferin, fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde, and then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton-X-100 as previously described (Park et al., 2023 (link)). The cells were probed with anti-γH2AX antibody (Ser139, Thermo Fisher Scientific) and then reacted with Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated antibody (Cell Signaling Technology). After counterstaining the nuclei using 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, Sigma-Aldrich), fluorescence images were acquired under a fluorescence microscope.
