Day 2
4. MSC (Mesenchymal stem cells) Mitochondria Isolation

	<li>Adjust the microtube centrifuge temperature to 4 &#176;C.</li>
	<li>Prepare two 1.5 ml tubes &#34;A&#34; and &#34;C&#34; containing the reagents for the mitochondria extraction (200 &#181;l reagent A and 400 &#181;l reagent C, both containing the EDTA-free protease inhibitors). Prepare 2 other tubes, labeled &#34;MSC&#34; and &#34;Mito&#34;. Keep all tubes on ice. Also prepare tubes for the mitochondria serial dilutions.</li>

	<li>Centrifuge the tube containing the MSCs at 900 x g for 5 min, at 4 &#176;C.</li>
	<li>Remove all residual medium from the tube.</li>
	<li>Add 200 &#181;l of Mitochondria Isolation Reagent A (containing the EDTA-free protease inhibitors). Vortex at medium speed for 5 sec and leave tubes on ice for exactly 2 min.</li>
	<li>Add 2.5 &#181;l of Mitochondria Isolation Reagent B. Vortex at maximum speed for 10 sec, and then leave tubes on ice. Repeat every 30 sec for 5 min.</li>
	<li>Add 200 &#181;l of Mitochondria Isolation Reagent C (containing the EDTA-free protease inhibitors). Mix by tilting the tube (roughly 30 times, do not vortex). Centrifuge the tube at 700 x g for 10 min at 4 &#176;C.</li>

	<li>Dilute the mitochondria preparation (in GSC proliferation medium) to consistently add 20 &#181;l of mitochondrial suspension to the GSCs.</li>
	<li>Add the volume of isolated mitochondria into the wells of the 96-well plate containing the GSCs , at the desired concentration (0.1 to 10 &#181;g). Add the mitochondria slowly, close to the bottom of the well, covering the entire surface at least once.</li>
	<li>Centrifuge the 96-well plate containing the mitochondria recipient GSCs with the MSC mitochondria and the control plate at 1,500 x g for 15 min at 4 &#176;C.</li>
	<li>Place the culture plates in the 37 &#176;C cell incubator immediately after centrifugation. 
	Note: The mitochondria transfer protocol relies on the centrifugation of the mitochondria suspension on the cultured cells at the adequate centrifugation force, with a number of centrifugations that can be adjusted depending on the system of mitochondria donor/recipient cells.</li>

centrifugation-assisted mitochondrial transfer to glioblastoma stem cells

Start with a tube containing deep-red fluorescently labeled donor mitochondria.
Add a cold proliferation medium to disperse the mitochondria.
Dispense the mitochondrial solution near the bottom of the well containing modified glioblastoma stem cells or GSCs.
These modified brain cancer cells are labeled with a blue fluorescent dye and contain red-fluorescently labeled endogenous mitochondria.
The suspension covers the entire surface of the well, uniformly distributing the mitochondria.
Centrifuge the culture plate to bring the mitochondria closer to the cells for their interaction.
Now, incubate the culture plate.
The cell membrane forms large vesicles that engulf extracellular material, including the donor mitochondria.
The cells then internalize these vesicles, releasing the donor mitochondria into their cytoplasm, potentially altering GSC metabolism and functions.
Observe the cells under a confocal microscope.
After image analysis, the presence of blue cells containing green donor mitochondria along with red endogenous mitochondria confirms successful mitochondrial transfer.

Preparation of Mitochondria from Ovarian Cancer Tissues and Control Ovarian Tissues for Quantitative Proteomics Analysis

Ovarian cancer is a common gynecologic cancer with high mortality but unclear molecular mechanism. Most ovarian cancers are diagnosed in the advanced stage, which seriously hampers therapy. Mitochondrial changes are a hallmark of human ovarian cancers, and mitochondria are the centers of energy metabolism, cell signaling, and oxidative stress. In-depth insights into the changes of the mitochondrial proteome in ovarian cancers compared to control ovarian tissue will benefit in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms of ovarian cancer, and the discovery of effective and reliable biomarkers and therapeutic targets. An effective mitochondrial preparation method coupled with an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) quantitative proteomics are presented here to analyze human ovarian cancer and control mitochondrial proteomes, including differential-speed centrifugation, density gradient centrifugation, quality assessment of mitochondrial samples, protein digestion with trypsin, iTRAQ labeling, strong cation exchange fractionation (SCX), liquid chromatography (LC), tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), database analysis, and quantitative analysis of mitochondrial proteins. Many proteins have been successfully identified to maximize the coverage of the human ovarian cancer mitochondrial proteome and to achieve the differentially expressed mitochondrial protein profile in human ovarian cancers.

This article presents a protocol of differential-speed centrifugation in combination with density gradient centrifugation to separate mitochondria from human ovarian cancer tissues and control ovarian tissues for quantitative proteomics analysis, resulting in a high-quality mitochondrial sample and high-throughput and high-reproducibility quantitative proteomics analysis of a human ovarian cancer mitochondrial proteome.

Isolation of mRNAs Associated with Yeast Mitochondria to Study Mechanisms of Localized Translation

Most of mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nucleus and need to be imported into the organelle. Import may occur while the protein is synthesized near the mitochondria. Support for this possibility is derived from recent studies, in which many mRNAs encoding mitochondrial proteins were shown to be localized to the mitochondria vicinity. Together with earlier demonstrations of ribosomes&#8217; association with the outer membrane, these results suggest a localized translation process. Such localized translation may improve import efficiency, provide unique regulation sites and minimize cases of ectopic expression. Diverse methods have been used to characterize the factors and elements that mediate localized translation. Standard among these is subcellular fractionation by differential centrifugation. This protocol has the advantage of isolation of mRNAs, ribosomes and proteins in a single procedure. These can then be characterized by various molecular and biochemical methods. Furthermore, transcriptomics and proteomics methods can be applied to the resulting material, thereby allow genome-wide insights. The utilization of yeast as a model organism for such studies has the advantages of speed, costs and simplicity. Furthermore, the advanced genetic tools and available deletion strains facilitate verification of candidate factors.

Many mRNAs encoding mitochondrial proteins are associated with the mitochondria outer membrane. We describe a subcellular fractionation procedure aimed at isolation of yeast mitochondria with its associated mRNAs and ribosomes. This protocol can be applied to cells grown under diverse conditions&#160;in order to reveal mechanisms of mRNA localization and localized translation near the mitochondria.
