Hdac4

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom

HDAC4 is a histone deacetylase enzyme that regulates gene expression by removing acetyl groups from histones, leading to a more compact chromatin structure and reduced transcription. It plays a role in various cellular processes, including muscle development and bone formation.

Briefly, after washing with PBS twice and fixing with 4% formaldehyde, brain sections or cell culture slides were incubated with the primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C, and then incubated with Alexa 594 or Cy5-conjugated secondary antibodies (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and DAPI for 1 h in the dark room at room temperature followed by 10 min PBS washing for 3 times. All slides were mounted with ProLong Antifade Mounting Medium (catalog #P36970, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and covered with cover slides before visualization under a confocal fluorescence microscopy. The following primary antibodies were used: monoclonal antibody against microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2, 1:500, Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA); NeuN (1:250; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA); HDAC4 (1:400; Abcam, Cambridge, UK); monoclonal antibody against glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP, 1:250; Abcam, Cambridge, UK); polyclonal antibody against β-amyloid antibody (Aβ, 1:400; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA). For detection of PKH26-labeled MSC-exosomes in the brain, the brain slices were imaged under a 40×, 63× and 100× objective after DAPI counterstaining using a confocal microscope with laser sources of 594 nm.

All experiments’ animal procedures were approved by the Animal Care Committee of Southern Medical University. For tumor metastatic studies in vivo, DU145 cells (1 × 107 cells per mouse) transfected with NC or sh-has_circ_0003258 were injected through lateral tail vein of BALB/c nude male mice (n = 5 for each group). Lung tissues were collected and examined for metastasis. After 40 days, the tumors in vivo were evaluated by fluorescence imaging using the IVIS (PerkinElmer, USA). The presence of cancer cells was confirmed by H&E (hematoxylin and eosin) staining. At the same time, immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was conducted using antibodies against ARHGAP5 (Abcam, USA, 1:100) and HDAC4 (Abcam, USA, 1:100).

For Western blot analysis, brain tissues and cells were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer with phosphorylase inhibitor and protease inhibitor for 15 minutes on ice. After centrifugation at 14000 rpm for 15 minutes, the supernatant was collected and the protein content of the samples was determined by the Bradford method. Equal amounts of protein were loaded onto 10% SDS-PAGE gels and blotted onto PVDF membranes. Membranes were blocked with 4% nonfat milk and incubated with primary antibodies against HDAC4 (1 : 1000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), HDAC4 phosphorylated at Ser-632 (1 : 200; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany), HIF-α (1 : 200; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), and VEGFa (1 : 200; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany) overnight. β-Actin (1 : 4000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) was used as a loading control. After washing three times with Tris-buffered saline, the membranes were incubated with HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit or anti-mouse secondary antibodies (1 : 2000) for 2 hours at room temperature. Specific binding was detected with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents. The blots were analyzed with ImageJ analysis software, and P-HDAC4 was normalized to total HDAC4 for comparisons.

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.
