Figure 1. Phase contrast imaging of
WKD live cells in DMEM (t=0 s) stressed at t=2 s by
complementing media to obtain final concentration of HO90 mM (
A;
animation1), BAK10
−2%
(
B:
animation 2),
and HO90 mM+BAK10
−2% (
C;
animation3). First line:
HO90 mM at t=0 s, t=5 s, and t=60 s; HO90 mM stress induced a
cell-volume decrease for 3 s after stress observed at t=5 s
before returning to almost normal size ( t=31 s), then a very
discreet cytoplasmic retraction was observed. Second line: BAK10
−2%
at t=0 s, t=60 s, and t=96s ; BAK induced a progressive
cytoplasm shrinkage observed from t=3 s to t=60 s (circles) and
followed by intense cell blebbing (arrows, from t=60 s) before
cell death. Last line: HO90 mM+BAK10
−2% at t=0 s, t=7
s, and t=31 s. Cells exhibited profound alteration just after
stress, such as disruption of plasma membrane and nuclear
fragmentation leading to irreversible cell death already visible
at t=7 s.
