After 120 min of reperfusion, hearts were rapidly harvested, placed in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80°C until analysis. Each sample was homogenized for 3 min with RIPA containing PMSF (Beyotime Biotechnology Ltd., Shanghai, China) using a homogenizer (T10 basic ULTRA-TURRAX, Germany), and the supernatant was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 30 min at 4°C. Briefly, 20 μg of frozen samples were separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred to a PVDF (Millipore Corp., Bedford, MA) membrane. The membranes were blocked with 5% nonfat milk in a universal antibody dilutent (New Cell& Molecular Biotech Co. Ltd., Suzhou, China) for 2 h at room temperature and incubated with primary antibodies against HMGB1 (1:1,000; Abcam, Massachusetts, USA) or glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) (1:1,000; abm, Richmond, Canada) at 4°C overnight. The membranes were incubated for 2 h with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:1,000, Beyotime Biotechnology Ltd., Shanghai, China). Specific protein bands were visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) kit and then processed using Image J for quantification.

COS-7 cells in 35 mm culture dishes were transfected with the wild-type and mutant SP6 vectors. After 30 hours post-transfection, the cells were harvested with RIPA buffer with protease inhibitors. Primary antibodies for flag (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) and GAPDH (abm, Richmond, BC, Canada) were used at a titer of 1:10,000 and incubated at 4 °C overnight. The secondary antibody of goat anti-mouse (Thermo, Waltham, MA, USA), conjugated with HRP, was used at a titer of 1:10000. Total RNA was isolated with the RNeasy mini Kit (Qiagen, Germantown, MD, USA), and cDNA was synthesized. RT-PCR was performed using the SP6 primers (530 bp, sense: 5′-GGTAACCTGCGAGGACCTG-3′, antisense: 5′-GCTTCTTCTTGCCCCCATC-3′) and the GAPDH primers (309 bp, sense: 5′-CCAAGGTCATCCATGACAAC-3′, antisense: 5′-GCTTCACTACCTTCTTGATG-3′).

A detailed description of protein extraction and Western blotting procedures can be found in our previous report [5 (link)].
In brief, muscle samples were loaded and separated on a 10% polyacrylamide gel, followed by transfer to a nitrocellulose membrane (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Sanford, ME, USA, #sc-3724), after which membranes were incubated in a blocking buffer (TBS-T: 4% non-fat milk powder; Tris-buffered saline, pH 7.4; and 0.1% Tween 20). The membranes were then incubated with primary and secondary antibodies and washed in TBS-T. The primary antibodies used were GAPDH (1:10,000, Applied Biological Materials Inc., Richmond, BC, Canada, # G041), Lamin B1 (1:500, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA, # ab16048), MEF2-D (1:1000, EMD Millipore, Temecula, CA, USA, # AB2263), acetyl-Histone H3 (1:1000, EMD Millipore, Temecula, CA, USA, # 06-599), total Histone H3 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA, # 9715), HDAC4 (1:500, Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA, #2072), HAT P300 (1:500, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA, # ab231010).
Secondary HRP-conjugated antibodies (1:30,000) to rabbit or mouse immunoglobulins were from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, CA, USA. Protein bands were detected and quantified using Clarity Western ECL Substrate (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA, #170-5061) and C-DiGit Blot Scanner (LI-COR Biotechnology, Lincoln, NE, USA).

Western blotting was performed as described previously (Lu et al., 2017 (link)). In brief, fresh liver tissues were homogenized in RIPA and PMSF. 5 × SDS-PAGE loading buffer was added, followed by protein degeneration via boiling for 5 min. The loaded protein were separated by 10 or 12% SDS-PAGE, and transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (NC). The membranes were incubated for 1 h in non-fat dry milk in TBST. CYP1A1 (1:500 diluted, Sangon Biotech. Shanghai, China), CYP1A2 (1:400 diluted, Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China), CYP3A4 (1:200 diluted, Sangon biotech. Shanghai, China), CYP2A6 (1:200 diluted, ImmunoWay Biotechnology Company, Suzhou, China), Nrf2 (1:500 diluted, Wanleibio Co., Ltd., Harbin, China), GSTA3, (1:200 diluted, Life Span Biosciences, Inc., Shanghai, China), GSTM2 (1:800 diluted, BBI Life Sciences, Canada), and β-actin (1:1000 diluted, Applied Biological Materials Inc., Canada) or GAPDH (1:100 diluted, Applied Biological Materials Inc., Canada) protein was detected using specific primary antibodies incubated overnight at 4°C. Secondary anti-mouse or anti-rabbit horseradish peroxidase conjugated IgG was used for 1 h, and immune-complexes were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) detection. Signals were visualized on a computer using Image J software (National Institute of Health, United States).

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.
