Metformin enhances anti-mycobacterial responses by educating CD8+ T-cell immunometabolic circuits. Nat Commun. 2020 Oct 16;11(1):5225. doi: 10.1038/s41467-020-19095-z. Full Text
"The activity of caspase-1 was determined using fluorescent inhibitor of caspase-1 (FAM-Flica Caspase-1 Assay kit, ImmunoChemistry Technologies). Staining procedure was performed according to manufactures protocol. In brief after live/dead and surface antibody staining of lung and spleen single cells, FLICA reagent FAM-YVAD-FMK was provided to single cells and binding to activated caspase-1 was allowed for 1 h at 37 °C in the dark. Stained cells were washed with apoptosis wash buffer, followed by fixation. The green fluorescent was..."

"Tumor slices were removed from their wells and cultured in 500 µL slice culture media containing epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)-Alexa 647 and SR-FLICA reagents (online supplemental table 1) for 3 hours on a rocker in a humidified 37°C incubation chamber. Hoechst 33342 (ImmunoChemistry Technologies) was added 15 min prior to imaging. After incubation, slices were transferred to µ-Slide 8 Well clear bottom imaging slides (Ibidi) and imaged using a Leica SP8x confocal microscope with a 10×0.4 NA dry objective. Three to four 20 uM z-stack series were obtained for each slice and used to generate maximum..."

"The body weight of the mice was monitored twice weekly. To assess intratumour caspase cleavage, FLIVOTM in vivo apoptosis tracers (Immunochemistry Technologies LLC, MN, United States) were used. The SR FLIVOTM red dye was prepared according to the manufacturer’s protocol and 100 μl was injected into the tail vein of mice after appropriate treatments were completed. After 1 h, whole tumors were excised, digested and analyzed using flow cytometry on the BD FACSAria I."
