Preadipocytes were washed with PBS, lysed using RIPA buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) on ice, and centrifuged at 10,000 ×g at 4°C. The whole protein concentration for each sample was measured using the BCA Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). All protein samples and SDS-PAGE Sample Loading Buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) were mixed at a ratio of 4 to 1 and boiled for 5 min. Next, all protein samples were diluted to the same concentration. Protein bands were resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes. The membranes were then blocked with 5% Blocking Buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) for 1 h. Next, primary antibodies directed against SLC25A1, DLST, or actin (Cell Signaling Technology, CST, USA) were incubated on the membranes at 4°C overnight. The membranes were then treated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology, CST, USA) at room temperature for 2 h. Signals were detected using the enhanced chemiluminescence system reagents (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, USA). All experiments were repeated in triplicate.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
