Western Blot Analysis of mTOR Pathway

Western blot analysis was performed as previously described 31 (link). Briefly, MDSCs were lysed in Cell Lytic MT lysis buffer (Sigma) with Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Invitrogen) and phosphatase inhibitor 2 and 3 (Sigma) for 15 min on a shaker. After centrifugation for 20 min at 12 000×g (4°C), the supernatants were saved and protein concentrations of the samples were determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific). Equal amounts of protein (30 μg) were loaded onto SDS-polyacrylamide gels and blotted onto PVDF membranes (BioRad). Western blot analysis was performed using antibodies against mTOR, phospho-mTOR, p70S6K, phospho-p70S6K, S6, and phospho-S6 (rabbit monoclonal antibodies, 1: 1 000, Cell Signaling). Antibody against β-actin (rabbit monoclonal anti-β-actin, 1: 2 000, Cell Signaling) was used as a loading control. For detection, the membrane was incubated with anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (1: 2 000, Cell Signaling). Bands were visualized using SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent substrate (ThermoScientific Pierce).

Quantifying 35 K-Fc in Plasma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
35 K-Fc was detected in plasma by immunoprecipitation with Protein A/G agarose beads (Sigma, UK). Plasma samples were diluted 1:2 with Cell-lytic MT lysis buffer (Sigma, UK) and incubated with Protein A/G beads overnight at 4 °C with rotational mixing. The beads were washed 5 times with the lysis buffer prior to solubilisation of the bound proteins by LDS containing SDS-PAGE loading buffer (Invitrogen, UK). The resulting protein fraction was run on a western blot on a Nu-Page gel (Invitrogen) and transferred onto PVDF membrane (Amersham). The proteins were detected by blotting with anti-35 K antibodies (R&D Systems) and anti-human Fc (Jackson Labs, US) antibodies.

Western Blot Analysis of Sciatic Nerve Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sciatic nerve segments were lysed and homogenised in Cell Lytic MT lysis buffer with protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma-Aldrich). Protein samples (20 μg) were treated with reducing agent and sample buffer (Invitrogen) before 10 min incubation at 90 °C. Once cooled samples were run on SDS-PAGE gels (Invitrogen, NuPAGE 4–15% Bis-Tris gel) and transferred to nitrocellulose using an iblot (Invitrogen). The Western blot was performed using standard techniques, visualised and captured using the Azure C500 (Azure Biosystems) and densitometry analysis was performed using Fiji. Whole protein was used as a loading control with the amido black stain (Sigma) where densitometry analysis for each entire lane was used to normalise in Fiji, after being captured using the AzureC500 (Azure Biosystems)67 (link).

Western Blot Analysis of Protein Targets

Western blot analysis was performed by SDS/PAGE as described previously [19 ]. Tissues and cells were lysed with Cell LyticMT lysis buffer (Sigma) which contained a protease and phosphatase inhibitor mix (Roche Molecular Biochemicals, Indianapolis, IN, USA). The lysis process lasted for 20 min on ice. The protein content of the samples was determined by BCA assay (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) after centrifugation for 15 min at 12,000 g (4 °C). Equal amounts of protein (30 μg) were loaded onto SDS/PAGE and blotted onto nitrocellulose membranes (Whatman, Clifton, NJ, USA). Immunobloting was performed with antibodies directed against each target molecule: Akt (1:1000; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA); phosphorylated- Akt ser473 (1:500; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA); eNOS (1:1000; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), phosphorylated-eNOS ser1177 (1:500; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), HMGB1 (1:1000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), VEGF (1:1000, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), β-actin (1:10000; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), GAPDH (1:1000, Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), α-Tubulin (1:1000; Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA). Proteins were detected by ECL chemiluminescence after incubation with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA). NIH Image J software was used to quantify the bands.

Western blot analysis was performed as previously described (22 (link)). Briefly, ECs were lysed in Cell Lytic MT lysis buffer (Sigma-Aldrich) with Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Invitrogen) for 15 minutes on a shaker. After centrifugation for 10 minutes at 12,000×g (4°C), the supernatants were saved and protein concentrations of the samples were determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Equal amounts of protein (30 μg) were loaded onto SDS-polyacrylamide gels and blotted onto PVDF membranes (BioRad, Hercules, CA, USA). Western blots analysis used antibodies against mTOR downstream S6, and p-S6 (rabbit monoclonal antibodies, 1:1,000, Cell Signaling, Beverly, MA, USA), PECAM-1 (rabbit polyclonal anti-PECAM-1, 1:1,000, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) and intercellular adhesion molecule-2 (ICAM-2) (rabbit polyclonal anti-ICAM-2, 1:200, Santa Cruz, Dallas, Texas, USA). Antibody against β-actin (rabbit monoclonal anti-β-actin, 1:2,000, Cell Signaling) was used as a loading control. For detection, the membrane was incubated with anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (1:2,000, Cell Signaling).

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.
