Organisms have thus evolved complex mechanisms to deal with the myriad exogenous and endogenous sources of replication impediments to which the cell is subject. These mechanisms are of particular relevance to cancer biology, given that such \"replication stress\" frequently foreshadows genome instability during cancer pathogenesis, and that many traditional chemotherapies and a number of precision medicines function by interfering with the progress of DNA replication. Visualization of the progress and dynamics of DNA replication in living cells was historically a major challenge, neatly surmounted by the development of DNA fiber assays that utilize the fluorescent detection of halogenated nucleotides to track replication forks at single-molecule resolution. This methodology has been widely applied to study the dynamics of unperturbed DNA replication, as well as the cellular responses to various replication stress scenarios. In recent years, subtle modifications to DNA fiber assays have facilitated assessment of the stability of nascent DNA at stalled replication forks, as well as the detection of single-stranded DNA gaps and their subsequent filling by error-prone polymerases. Here, we present and discuss several iterations of the fiber assay and suggest methodologies for the analysis of the data obtained.","PeriodicalId":18437,"journal":{"name":"Methods in cell biology","volume":"182 ","pages":"285-298"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139741338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cytostatic effects induced by CDK4/6 inhibitors can be transient or lead to a permanent state of cell cycle arrest, commonly defined as cellular senescence. Induction of senescence is often associated to metabolic modifications and to the acquisition of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) by cancer cells, which in turn can promote or limit antitumor immunity (and thus the efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors) depending on SASP components. Thus, although accumulating evidence suggests that anti-cancer effects of CDK4/6 inhibitors also depend on the promotion of antitumor immune responses, assessing cell cycle arrest and progression in cells treated with palbociclib remains a key approach for investigating the efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors. Here, we describe a method to assess cell cycle distribution simultaneously with active DNA replication by flow cytometry in cultured hormone receptor-positive breast cancer MCF7 cells.","PeriodicalId":18437,"journal":{"name":"Methods in cell biology","volume":"181 ","pages":"197-212"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139672171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite important advances in the surgical treatment of aortic aneurysms, there is currently no pharmacological intervention that prevents their development, reduces their expansion, or avoids their rupture. In addition to classic risk factors such age or gender, several heritable connective tissue disorders have been associated with AA developing, highlighting the role of extracellular matrix (ECM) genes alterations in the developing of AA. In this sense, we have recently demonstrated that global deletion of the cellular communicating network factor 2 (CCN2), previously known as connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) due to its role in the extracellular matrix formation, predisposes to early and lethal AAs development after Angiotensin II (Ang II) infusion in mice. Here, we detail the protocol to induce and detect AAs generation in inducible global CCN2 knockout mice after Ang II infusion which allow the characterization of CCN role in AA development and may help to the development of pharmacological target for AA treatment.","PeriodicalId":18437,"journal":{"name":"Methods in cell biology","volume":"188 ","pages":"61-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141331337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is estimated that a minimum of 20% SLE patients develop lupus nephritis, a condition that can be fatal when the pathology progresses to end-stage renal disease. Studies in animal models showed that incidence of immune cell infiltrates in the kidney was linked to pathological injury and correlated with severe lupus nephritis. Thus, preventing immune cell infiltration into the kidney is a potential approach to impede the progression to an end-stage disease. A requirement to investigate the role of kidney-infiltrating leukocytes is the development of reproducible and efficient protocols for purification and characterization of immune cells in kidney samples. This chapter describes a detailed methodology that discriminates tissue-resident leukocytes from blood-circulating cells that are found in kidney. Our protocol was designed to maximize cell viability and to reduce variability among samples, with a combination of intravascular staining and magnetic bead separation for leukocyte enrichment. Experiments included as example were performed with FcγRIIb[KO] mice, a well-characterized murine model of SLE. We identified T cells and macrophages as the primary leukocyte subsets infiltrating into the kidney during severe nephritis, and we extensively characterized them phenotypically by flow cytometry.","PeriodicalId":18437,"journal":{"name":"Methods in cell biology","volume":"188 ","pages":"131-152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141331347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
