    (a) Fluorescence confocal images of <t>HeLa,</t> <t>4T1,</t> MCF-7, and NIH 3T3 cells after incubation with Pro-BDP-3 (5.0 μM) for 2 h with or without further incubation with RuL2 or RuL3 (2.5 μM) for a further 4 h (red fluorescence; λ ex = 633 nm, λ em = 650–900 nm). The cells being incubated with BDP-COOH (5.0 μM) for 2 h were used as the positive control. The cell nuclei were stained with Hoechst (1.0 μM) for 15 min (blue fluorescence; λ ex = 405 nm, λ em = 420–500 nm). Scale bar = 20 μm. (b) Corresponding mean red fluorescence intensities quantified by ImageJ. Data are reported as the mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM) for three independent experiments (∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001). (c) Fluorescence confocal images of HeLa, 4T1, MCF-7, and NIH 3T3 cells after the aforementioned treatments and further incubation with H 2 DCFDA (10 μM) for 30 min, followed by light irradiation (λ > 610 nm, 25.8 mW/cm 2 ) for 8 min to give a total fluence of 12 J/cm 2 (green fluorescence; λ ex = 488 nm, λ em = 493–550 nm). Scale bar = 20 μm. (d) Corresponding mean green fluorescence intensities of DCF quantified by ImageJ. Data are reported as the mean ± SEM for three independent experiments (∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001). (e) Dark and photo (λ > 610 nm, 25.8 mW/cm 2 , 12 J/cm 2 ) cytotoxicity of BDP-COOH , Pro-BDP-3 , RuL2 , Pro-BDP-3 + RuL2 , RuL3 , and Pro-BDP-3 + RuL3 against HeLa, 4T1, MCF-7, and NIH 3T3 cells. The cells were incubated with BDP-COOH , Pro-BDP-3 , RuL2 , or RuL3 for 2 h. For Pro-BDP-3 + RuL2 and Pro-BDP-3 + RuL3 , the cells were first incubated with Pro-BDP-3 for 2 h and then with RuL2 or RuL3 (0.5 equiv.) for a further 4 h. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments, each performed in quadruplicate. (f) Photocytotoxicity of these agents at 5.0 μM and the combination treatments at 5.0 μM of Pro-BDP-3 against the four cell lines. The rightmost figure compiles the results for Pro-BDP-3 + RuL3 (∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001). Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments, each performed in quadruplicate. (g) Live/dead cell viability assay using calcein-AM and PI. The cells were treated as described above, followed by incubation with calcein-AM (1 μM) and PI (2 μM) in binding buffer (2 mL) at 37 °C for 30 min. The live cells were indicated by the green fluorescence of calcein-AM (λ ex = 488 nm, λ em = 493–550 nm), while the dead cells were indicated by the red fluorescence of PI (λ ex = 561 nm, λ em = 600–800 nm). Scale bar = 50 μm. (For interpretation of the references to color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.)

(D) Bound protein was separated on SDS-PAGE gel and bound Zta was then analysed by Western blotting staining. A representative image is shown. (E) The non-linear fit of Zta binding to Tat (densitometry analysis of western blotting band intensity of bound Zta) against Zta concentration in solution with one site-specific binding model. Zta binding at a concentration of 0.2 µM was set as 1 (fraction bound). (F , G) Tat and Zta interaction analysed by YFP reconstitution. (F) The modular composition of the fusion proteins used in this study (above). A representative image of HeLa cells after transfection with YFP1-Tat and YFP2-Zta plasmids, nuclei were counterstained with DAPI, scale bar 10 μm (below). (G) The percentage of YFP-positive cells in HeLa, RPMI8866 or Jurkat cells transfected with YFP1-Tat + YFP2-Zta or YFP1-ERGIC-53 and YFP2-MCFD2 (positive control) as analysed by flow cytometry. (H-J) The analysis of Tat and Zta interaction by FRET with the acceptor photobleaching method. (H) Representative images of RPMI8866 cells, transfected with different combinations of CFP, YFP, Tat-CFP and YFP-Zta. Scale bar 10 μm. (I-J) FRET efficiencies for each combination in RPMI8866 (I) and HeLa (J) cells. Data are presented as mean ± SEM

    Article Snippet: Human cervical carcinoma cell line HeLa (American Type Culture Collection), Human Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B lymphoblastoid cell line RPMI8866 (ECACC General Cell Collection), freshly EBV-transformed B lymphoblastoid cell line from healthy donor AS (BLAS, established by EBV (B95-8) immortalization of mature B cells and characterized by Genethon (Evry, France)), human immortalized T cell line Jurkat (American Type Culture Collection) and their derivatives were used in the study.
