FIGURE 7:

Mitochondria traffic into the distal tips of 3D invadopodia in an AMPK-dependent manner. (A) SKOV-3, (B, C), SKOV-3ip, and (D) B16F10 cells expressing mTurquoise-LifeAct and mito-DsRed (yellow) were embedded in 3D collagen I gels overnight and then imaged over the indicated times. Scale bars, 10 μm (A, B, D), 20 μm (C). (E) Time course of mitochondrial dynamics in 3D collagen-embedded SKOV-3 cells expressing PA-AIP or PA-AIPscr before (Ctrl) and after photoactivation (+PA) by exposure to 445-nm blue light, as described for Figure 6 (bar, 5 μm). Multicolored images are temporal color-coded stack projections of mitochondrial movement over the indicated time points. (F) Quantification of mitochondrial velocities in the invading leading edges of SKOV-3 cells expressing PA-AIP or PA-AIPscr, embedded in 3D collagen gels, before and after photoactivation by 445-nm light (boxes, 25th–75th quartiles; whiskers, minimum and maximum; bars, mean ± SD; 30 measurements from three experiments; *p < 0.001).
