After slowly cooling, tissues were washed 3x with PBS and incubated with primary antibody (10 ⁇ g/ml), for one hour at room temperature. After washing again, tissues were incubated with envision anti-mouse and DAB stained as above (both Dako). Tissue sections were dehydrated with ethanol series as before and fixed in xylene. Cells and sections were imaged and photographed by light microscopy (Leica).
- Glue activity assay In vitro Glue activity assay. For Gluctag activity over time, 50,000 cells were plated in a 24 well plate and incubated overnight. 10 ⁇ of conditioned medium were harvested from cells and Glue activity was measured by adding 50 ⁇ (5 ⁇ g/ml) coelenterazine (Nanolight Technologies) in PBS and 0.1% Triton X-100). Before addition to the sample, the substrate was incubated at room
- Gluctag activity in medium was determined as described above. Gluctag immunobinding assay. White goat-anti-mouse-coated 96-well plates
- lidocaine 5 mg/ml in PBS
- X 0.5 mm
- Y 2 mm
- Z -2 mm from Bregma
- a small drill was used to drill a hole into the skull.
- a total of 2 x 10 5 cells in 3 ⁇ of DMEM were injected vertically.
- tumor size was monitored using a calliper (for subcutaneous) and bioluminescence in vivo Flue imaging, by injecting D-luciferin (100 mg/kg) intraperitoneally. Imaging was performed with an IVIS CCD camera and analyzed with Living Image software (Cahper Life Sciences).

- the CSCW-Gluc-IRES-CFP lentiviral vector was used to demonstrate the multiplex method using Gaussia luciferase.
- This lentiviral vector co- expresses the Glue bioluminescent reporter and the cerulean fluorescent protein (CFP) control.
- the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) allows co- expression of both proteins using the same cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter.
- CMV cytomegalovirus
- Glucmodified gene (633 bp) in thermal cycler by 1: denature the plasmid DNA for 2 minutes at 95°C. Then 2: denature for 30 seconds at 95°C, 3: anneal primers for 30 seconds at 62°C and 4: elongate DNA for 1 minute at 72°C and cycle sequence 2, 3, 4 for 35 times. Allow 5: final elongation of DNA for 2 minutes at 72°C. 2.
- Glucmodified gene and CSCW lentiviral backbone restriction mixtures from (2.) and load both the samples into a separate gel well. Also load a separate well with a DNA molecular weight marker to identify the product and confirm product sizes. Run the gel in 1 x TAE buffer at 100 volts until the Glucparental gene (718 bp) has separated properly from the CSCW lentiviral backbone (9408 bp).
- oligonucleotide 100 ⁇
- 20 ⁇ of the antisense oligonucleotide 100 ⁇
- HEK293T and U87 cells are cultured in DMEM complete culture medium at 37°C and 5% C02.
- the cells are diluted 1/10 when the culture vessel is ⁇ 90% confluent.
- Detach the cells by adding lx Trypsin + EDTA, enough to just cover the surface of the culture vessel.
- DMEM complete culture medium and culture the cells in 37°C and 5% C02.
- Temgesic (Buprenorfinehydrochloride, 0.1 mg/kg) in PBS analgesia and anesthetize the mouse using an isoflurane anaesthesia and fix the mouse in a small animal stereotaxic frame.
- a high fidelity proof reading DNA polymerase is used for the amplification of the Glue reporter gene. This minimizes optimization and the risk of copy errors due to incorrect basep airing.
- high fidelity restriction enzymes for restriction of the DNA vectors are used. This increases restriction efficiency and user simplicity since most high fidelity enzymes are optimised in the same restriction reaction buffer. Also, most high fidelity restriction enzymes are optimised to have less star activity, increasing ligation efficiency in later steps of the protocol.
- ethidium bromide such as SYBR safe DNA gel stain (Life Technologies). Besides being less hazardous, these stains can also be used to visualize DNA with non-UV- light, decreasing damage of the DNA due to UV exposure.
- white microplates are used to prevent crossover detection of photons between wells.
- the white goat anti- mouse IgG coated microplates (Thermo Scientific) are pre-coated to improve assay stability but it is also possible to manually coat microplates (e.g. ELISA microplates).
- the antibodies we used are all mouse monoclonal IgG antibodies.
- the coated microplates used (see note 5) are optimised to use with mouse IgG antibodies. Using monoclonal antibodies over polyclonal antibodies improves assay stability.
- the capillary collection and sample container (Sarstedt) we used combines a capillary blood collector with an EDTA coated sample container. This enables fast and easy sample collection and storage. If you collect mouse blood using other methods, make sure you add EDTA to the blood sample to prevent clotting.
- virus titers are obtained using other methods of transfection of the plasmids and vectors. Using Lipofectamine 2000 (Life Technologies) or Fugene (Promega) can be beneficial for virus production titres.
- the most stable method of measuring would be to measure Glue signal directly after coelenterazine substrate addition.
- a plate reader with a substrate injector would be optimal but it is also an option to use a multichannel pipette. Measuring a 96-well microplate for 0.1 second per well would take about 10 seconds, so the time difference as a result of measuring the first well and the last well would be well within 10% deviation as a result of the Glue signal degradation.
