Approximately 3.0 mL of ht‐UtLM and CR‐LM cell cultures (about 75 000 cells) were inoculated into chamber slides (ThermoFisher Scientific, Lab‐Tek Flaskette Chamber Slide system, Cat# 177453) and grown to 80% confluency in Cd‐free culture medium. The slides were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 10 minutes, rinsed with 1× automation buffer (Biocare Medical Cat# TWB945M), permeabilized in 0.2% Triton X‐100, and washed in 1× automation buffer. Rabbit polyclonal anti‐Ki67 (Biocare Medical Cat#CRM325) antibody was applied to the slides at a dilution of 1:100 for 30 minutes. The slides were then incubated with anti‐Rabbit IgG HRP Polymer (BioCare Medical #MP‐7401) for 30 minutes. The slides were then treated with 3,3‐diaminobenzidine to develop chromogenic reaction. Slides were counterstained with hematoxylin and scanned with Leica Aperio AT2 Digital Whole Slide Scanning system. Three slides for each treatment group were prepared and quantified.
