(a) Cell cycle resolved scatter plots of DNA content and area of the nucleus of cells shown in Fig. 4a. Hyperploid cells (> 4 N DNA content, marked by the dashed vertical line) are coloured in red. (b) Representative images of 53BP1-PCNA U-2 OS cells either untreated or treated with 175 nM of Pevonedistat for 24 h and allowed to recover for 42 h. Scale bar, 10 µm. (c) DNA fibre analysis of U-2 OS cells either untreated or treated with 175 nM of Pevonedistat for 24 h and then allowed to recover for 42 h. Statistical analysis by two-tailed unpaired t-test. (d) High-content microscopy derived cell cycle profiles of HCT 116 cells treated with 250 nM of Pevonedistat for 24 h. The percentage of hyperploid cells (> 4 N DNA content, marked by the dashed vertical line) is indicated. (e) High-content microscopy derived cell cycle profiles of RPE-1 cells treated with 175 nM of Pevonedistat for 24 h and then released into fresh medium for 42 h. The percentage of hyperploid cells (> 4 N DNA content, marked by the dashed vertical line) is indicated. (f) Representative single cell lineages depicting endoreplication after Pevonedistat exposure. (g) Representative single cell lineages depicting re-replication after Pevonedistat exposure. (h) Bar chart depicting the frequency of endo- and re-replication in 53BP1-PCNA U-2 OS cells treated either in G1 or S phase with 175 nM of Pevonedistat for 24 h and then released for 42 h. Mean ± SD are depicted. (i) Single cell lineage depicting endoreplication from live imaging of 53BP1-PCNA RPE-1 cells that were treated with Pevonedistat for 48 h. PCNA patterns and 53BP1 foci are shown. Scale bar, 10 µm. (j) Single cell lineage depicting re-replication from live imaging of 53BP1-PCNA RPE-1 cells that were treated with Pevonedistat for 48 h. PCNA patterns and 53BP1 foci are shown. Scale bar, 10 µm. (k) High-content microscopy derived cell cycle profiles of U-2 OS cells depleted of Geminin for 72 h. The percentage of hyperploid cells (> 4 N DNA content, marked by the dashed vertical line) is indicated. (l) Scatter plot of total DAPI intensity of normal G2 cells and Geminin depleted cells that underwent either endo- or re-replication. (m) Scatter plot of mean nuclear intensity of γH2AX of normal G2 cells and Geminin depleted cells that underwent either endo- or re-replication. (n) As in (m) for p53. (o) As in (m) for p21. (p) As in (m) for pRb. Statistical analysis was performed with two-tailed unpaired t-test between endo- and re-replication. Horizontal solid lines represent the mean and horizontal dashed lines represent standard deviation.
