Beclin1 is a protein that plays a key role in the regulation of autophagy, a cellular process that involves the degradation and recycling of damaged or unnecessary cellular components. The core function of Beclin1 is to serve as a critical component of the autophagy initiation complex, which is responsible for the formation of autophagosomes, the vesicles that encapsulate the cellular components to be degraded. Beclin1 is involved in the recruitment and activation of other proteins necessary for the autophagic process, making it a fundamental part of the cellular machinery responsible for maintaining homeostasis and responding to various environmental and cellular stresses.

R packages including pheatmap, clusterProfiler, and igraph were used in this work. The antibodies used in Western blotting are as follows: actin (GB12001; 1:3000; Servicebio, China), LC3 (14600-1-AP; 1:1,000; Proteintech, United States), and Beclin 1(GB112053; 1:1,000; Servicebio, China). The AlphaView tool was used to analyze the optical density values of the target band.

Western Blot Analysis of Renal Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total protein lysates were extracted from mouse renal cortex tissue or cells using RIPA lysis buffer (Solarbio Co., LTD.,Beijing,China). Protein samples were separated by 10-12% sodium dodecyl sulphatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to polyvinylidene uoride. After being blocked with 5% skim milk in phosphate-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween 20 for 1 h, the membranes were incubated with a primary antibody at 4°C overnight and then with a secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. High sig ECL Western blotting substrate development kit was used to develop the imprint. The relative gray intensity of each target protein expression band was quantitatively analyzed by Image J, and GAPDH was set as an internal reference. The ratio of each target protein to GAPDH was the relative expression level of the target protein. All measurements were repeated at least three times. Primary antibodies against SYSTM1/P62, Beclin-1, GSK3β, LC3B, Desmin, and WT-1 were purchased from Servicebio Biotechnology (Wuhan,China), GSK3β (phospho Ser9) was gained from Cell Signaling Technology (Shanghai,China), Nephrin and NPHS2 were purchased from Abcam (Shanghai, China), Sirt1 and phospho Sirt1 (Ser 27) were obtained from Bioss Biotechnology (Beijing, China) , and GAPDH was acquired from Good Here (Hangzhou, China).

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.
