Cells were collected in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 120 mM NaCl, 0.5% Triton X-100) supplemented with the Pierce Protease and Phosphatase Inhibitor tablets (Thermo Scientific) and sonicated. DynabeadsTM M-280 Sheep Anti-Mouse IgG (Life Technologies) were washed in 3% BSA/PBS. GFP or p62 antibodies were coupled to Dynabeads (1 µg antibody/50 µl beads), by incubating with rotation overnight at 4 °C. Cell lysates were precleared with 5 μL Dynabeads for 1 hour at 4 °C and then incubated with antibody-Dynabeads with rotation overnight at 4 °C. The immunoprecipitates were washed in 3% BSA/PBS and then in PBS, and further transferred to a clean tube. The proteins were eluted by boiling in 1x laemmli buffer at 90 °C for 10 min.

This was performed with available commercial kits using the enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) technique. In fact, murine RAW 264.7 cells were seeded at a density of 2 × 105 cells per well into 12-well plates, and they were allowed to attach overnight. These cells were pre-treated with DMSO 0.5% (negative control), quercetin at 25 µM (positive control), and AJHLE at different concentrations (12.5, 25, and 50 µg/mL) for 2 h, followed by the addition of LPS (200 ng/mL) for 24 h under standard cell-culture conditions. Thereafter, treated cells were washed twice with pre-cooled phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (Cytiva Hyclone, Logan, UT, USA) and dissociated using trypsin-EDTA (Cytiva Hyclone, Logan, UT, USA). The cell lysates were obtained in PBS containing EDTA-free Pierce Protease and Phosphatase-inhibitor Tablets (ThermoFisher Scientific, Lenexa, KS, USA) by repeating freeze–thaw cycles in liquid nitrogen and a water bath (37 °C). After centrifugation at 10,000 rpm at 4 °C, the cell supernatants were collected and used for the quantification of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), interleukins (IL-1β and IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) concentrations using Elabscience® Mouse COX-2, IL-1β, IL-10, and TNF-α ELISA kits (Elabscience Biotechnology Inc., Houston, TX, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

For western blotting, cells were lysed in PBS containing 2% Triton X-100 and Pierce protease and phosphatase inhibitor tablets (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The protein concentration was determined with a BCA assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and equal amounts were resolved on NuPAGE 4–12% precast gels (Invitrogen). Proteins were transferred from gels onto PVDF membrane (Immobilon-FL, pore size 0.45 μm, Millipore, catalogue number IPFL00010) for immunoblotting. Transfer was performed in transfer buffer (25 mM Tris, 192 mM glycine and 10% methanol) at 100 V for 70 min. Membranes were blocked in 5% milk in PBS containing 0.1% Tween 20 (PBS-T) prior to incubation with the appropriate primary antibodies and fluorescently labelled secondary antibodies. Detection and quantification were carried out using an Odyssey infrared scanning system (LI-COR Biosciences).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vehicle-treated Ndufs4+/+ and Ndufs4−/− mice, or ruboxistaurin- or rapamycin-treated Ndufs4+/+ and Ndufs4−/− mice were treated daily from P10 until P27–31 or P47–51. Mice were then fasted overnight (for 12 h), treated with vehicle or small molecule, and re-fed. Unanesthetized mice were then euthanized by cervical dislocation 3–4.5 hours later. Brains were immediately isolated and flash frozen in liquid N2 for Western blot. Brains were ground using a cryogenic homogenizer. Approximately 50 mg of homogenized brain tissue was lysed with 1 mL RIPA buffer containing Pierce™ protease and phosphatase inhibitor tablets (Thermo Fisher) for 30 minutes. Samples were then centrifuged to remove insoluble cell debris, quantified by BCA, diluted to 2 mg/mL, and used for Western blot.

Cultured GIST cell lines were rinsed in PBS (Lonza) and scraped on ice into a RIPA lysis buffer (Pierce Biotechnology, Rockford, IL, USA) containing a Pierce Protease and Phosphatase Inhibitor Tablet (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.), followed by sonication. The protein concentrations were measured using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.). Ten microgram of protein was separated using gel electrophoresis and blotted onto an Immobilon‐P Transfer Membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The primary antibodies were a monoclonal rabbit anti‐ITGA4 antibody (dilution 1:1000; clone D2E1; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), a polyclonal rabbit anti‐c‐KIT antibody (dilution 1:10,000; A4502; Agilent Technologies Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), a polyclonal rabbit anti‐Phospho‐c‐KIT (Tyr703) antibody (dilution 1:10,000; 3391; Cell Signaling Technology), a polyclonal rabbit β‐Actin (dilution 1:10,000; Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, TX, USA) and a peroxidase‐conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti‐Rabbit antibody was used as the secondary antibody (dilution 1:10,000; Jackson Immuno Research, West Grove, PA, USA). Blot immunostains were treated with a SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.), exposed to an X‐ray film, and the films were developed with a Kodak Medical X‐ray Processor 102 (Eastman Kodak; Rochester, NY, USA).

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.
