Cultured HPMVECs were homogenized with the cell lysis buffer system (Santa Cruz) on dry ice. The protein was extracted using protein extraction reagents (Beyotime) per the manufacturer’s instructions. After centrifugation of homogenates, the concentration of protein was measured with BCA method by using a BCA assay kit (Invitrogen). Protein samples were separated by SDS-PAGE and then transferred to the PVDF membranes electronically. The membranes were then incubated with the blocking buffer (Santa Cruz) to eliminate the non-specific binding sites. Then, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against ROCK2 (Cell Signaling Tech, 1: 2000), eNOS, (Cell Signaling Tech, 1: 2000) p-eNOS (Cell Signaling Tech, 1: 2000), Bcl2 (Santa Cruz, 1: 2000), active caspase3 (Abcam, 1: 2000), NF-κB (Abcam, 1: 1000), IL-6 (Abcam, 1: 2000), TNF-α (Abcam, 1: 1000), GAPDH (Abcam, 1: 5000), and Histone-H3 (Abcam, 1: 2000) at 4°C for 12 h.

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.
