NucPE1

Excitation of NucPE1-loaded cells at 514 nm is carried out with an Ar laser and emission is collected using a META detector between 522–554 nm. Excitation of Hoechst 33342 is carried out using a MaiTai two-photon laser at 780-nm pulses and emission is collected between 436–501 nm. All images in an experiment are collected simultaneously using identical microscope settings. Image analysis is performed in Image J. The background fluorescence is measured in a data set by selecting an ROI outside of the cells. This background number is then used to set the threshold of the image and thereby select for NucPE1 signal. The mean fluorescence intensity of this signal is then measured and utilized as the fluorescent signal for that particular image. The same threshold settings are utilized for all images in an experiment^[1]. The measurement of nuclear H₂O₂ is achieved using NucPE1. The cells are incubated for 45 min at 10 μM NucPE1 in the dark. The incubation is followed by ishing and analysis by flow cytometry as explained above. Mitochondrial ROS are measured using MitoSOX probe. The cells are incubated with 5 μM MitoSOX for 15 min in the dark. The incubation is followed by ishing and analysis by flow cytometry^[2]. Live imaging of the NucPE1 probe is carried out using excitation at 488 nm with an argon laser, and emission is collected using a META detector at about 520 nm. The Hoechst dye is incubated together with NucPE1. When multiple staining of NucPE1 and PO1 is performed, the multitracking mode of scanning is applied for acquisition of the images^[2].
