Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HEK293T cells were grown in culture medium (DMEM, 10 % fetal bovine serum, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U penicillin/0.1 mg/ml streptomycin) and transfected with pRK5 vector encoding BPIFB4, or with an empty plasmid, using Lipofectamine 2000 (Life Technologies) according to the manufacturer’s protocol, in triplicates. 24 h after transfection, the medium is been changed and finally collect 48 h after the change. Protein content of medium is been concentrated using Amicon Ultra columns (Merck Millipore) and analyzed by Western blot. Protein were separated on 10 % SDS-PAGE at 100 V for 1 h or on 4–12 % SDS-PAGE at 100 V for 2 h and then transferred to a nitrocellulose or PVDF membrane. The membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies of anti-BPIFB4 (Abcam, rabbit pAb, 1:200) and anti-kallikrein 1 (Abcam, mouse pAb, 1:1000). After a triple wash, membranes were incubated for 1 or 2 h with the secondary antibody (Amersham Life Science, horseradish peroxidase-linked anti-rabbit IgG or anti-mouse IgG, 1:3000). The membranes were then washed four times and specific protein bands were detected with ECL Prime chemiluminescent agents (Amersham Life Science).

Proteins from whole cell lysates were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) with NuPAGE Novex Bis-Tris precast 4 to 12% gradient gels (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The primary antibodies anti-actin (Mouse mAB; Sigma Life Science and Biochemicals), anti-TIMP1 (Rabbit pAB; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA), anti-CoL1A1 (Rabbit pAB;Thermo Fisher, Rockford, IL, USA), phosphorylated and unphosphorylated NFκB (RelA) (Rabbit pAB; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA), phosphorylated NRF2 (Rabbit mAB; abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), unphosphorylated NRF2 (Rabbit pAB; abcam), and phosphorylated and unphosphorylated SMAD3 (Rabbit mAB; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) were incubated overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody, anti-mouse IgG (Donkey mAB; amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ, USA), and anti-rabbit IgG (Sheep mAB; amersham Biosciences) were incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature.

Cultured primary neurons were fixed in cold acetone/methanol for 10 minutes. After permeabilization and blocking with 0.1% Triton X100 in PBS containing 1% BSA for 1 hour, the neurons were then incubated with primary antibody against CAPON (rabbit pAb, 1:200; Abcam) and tyrosine hydroxylase (mouse mAb, 1:200; Sigma) in 1% BSA overnight at 4°C. Signals were visualized with antirabbit antibody conjugated to Alexa-488 (1:1000; Molecular Probes) and antimouse antibody conjugated to Alexa-594 (1:1000; Molecular Probes). Nuclear staining was performed with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, 1:1000; Sigma). Imaging was performed on a Nikon Ti-U fluorescent microscope.

Organs were fixed in 1% formaldehyde–10 mM sodium periodate–75 mM l-lysine (24 h; 4°C), equilibrated in 30% sucrose (18 h; 4°C), and then frozen in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) matrix compound. Nine-micrometer sections were cut and then air dried (1 h; 23°C), blocked with 0.3% Triton X-100–5% normal goat serum (1 h; 23°C), and incubated (18 h; 4°C) with antibodies to enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) (rabbit pAb; Abcam), macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO) (ED31; Serotec), IgM (biotin-conjugated goat pAb; Southern Biotech), IgD (11-26c; Southern Biotech), B220 (RA3-6B2; Abcam), and CD169 (3D6.112; Serotec).
GC B cell staining was with fluorescein-conjugated peanut agglutinin (PNA) (BD Biosciences). Sections were washed 3 times in PBS, incubated (1 h; 23°C) with Alexa 633-conjugated goat anti-rat IgG pAb, streptavidin-conjugated Alexa 568, and Alexa 488- or 568-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG pAb (Invitrogen), washed 3 times in PBS, and mounted in Prolong Gold plus DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) (Invitrogen). Fluorescence was visualized with a Leica TCS SP5 confocal microscope and analyzed with ImageJ.

Western Blot Analysis of Cellular and Viral Proteins

HAP1 cells were trypsinized and collected by centrifugation at 350 rcf for 10 min. The pellet was resuspended in Laemmli sample buffer containing 100 mM DTT, boiled for 5 min at 95°C and subjected to electrophoresis in 10% acrylamide (Bio-Rad) gels. Viruses were purified and concentrated over a 20% sucrose cushion (in TN buffer) at 110,000 rcf. Pelleted virus was resuspended in TN buffer overnight on ice. After addition of Laemmli sample buffer (1× final concentration, 100 mM DTT), samples were boiled for 5 min at 95°C and subjected to electrophoresis in 7% acrylamide (Bio-Rad) gels. Upon transfer to a nitrocellulose membrane (Millipore), the presence of cellular and viral proteins was probed with antibodies against GM130 (rabbit pAb, Abcam), FLAG (HRP-labeled mouse anti-FLAG mAb, Sigma) or the S2 subunit of MHV A59 [105] (link) (mouse anti-S2 mAb) diluted 1∶1000. When necessary, the blots were subsequently incubated with HRP-labeled rabbit anti-mouse or swine anti-rabbit antibodies (both diluted 1∶5000; DAKO). Binding of HRP-labeled antibodies was visualized using Amersham ECL Western blotting substrate (GE Healthcare Life Sciences) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Six micron sections of frozen inguinal lymph nodes were thaw mounted onto glass slides and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 min. After blocking with hydrogen peroxide, sections were stained for IL-2 and CD4 RNA using multiplexed fluorescent in situ hybridization (ACDbio). Following in situ hybridization, sections were incubated overnight with antibodies to FoxP3 (clone 236A/E7, Invitrogen) and either CD20 (Rabbit pAb, Abcam) or Ki67 (Rat clone OT1567, Abcam) on adjacent sections. Appropriate fluorescent secondary antibodies (Invitrogen) were added and all sections were counterstained with DAPI. Whole sections were imaged on an Aperio slide scanning system (Leica) at 40X.

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.
