Here, we describe three complementary microscopy-based approaches to quantify morphological changes of chromatin organization in cultured adherent cells: the analysis of the coefficient of variation of DNA, the measurement of DNA-free nuclear areas, and the quantification of chromatin-associated proteins at the nuclear edge. These approaches rely on confocal imaging and stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy and allow a fast and robust quantification of chromatin compaction. These approaches circumvent inter-variability between imaging conditions and apply to every type of adherent cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to.
