Western Blot Analysis of Autophagy and Apoptosis

Western blot assay was performed following the standard protocol. In brief, after total protein was isolated and quantified, the proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfonate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE; Solarbio, Beijing, China) and then transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (PVDF; Pall Corporation, New York, NYC, USA). Next, the membranes were blocked in slim milk for 2 h and then incubated with primary antibodies against ATG3 (ab108251; 1:2000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ (ab128025; 1:200; Abcam), P62 (ab56416; 1:500; Abcam), B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2; ab196495; 1:1000; Abcam), cleaved caspase-3 (ab49822; 1:500; Abcam), cleaved caspase-9 (ab2324; 1:2000; Abcam), BCL2-Associated X (Bax; ab182733; 1:2000; Abcam) or GAPDH (ab181602; 1:5000; Abcam) at 4°C overnight followed by incubation with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (D110150; 1:5000; Sangon, Shanghai, China) for 2 h. The protein bands were analyzed using an enhanced chemiluminescence reagent (Beyotime).

Exosome Characterization in B-ALL

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Western blot was performed to identify exosomes and verify the predicted proteins associated with B-ALL progression. Whole exosomes in each sample were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer and quantified using a bicinchoninic acid protein assay kit (23,227; Thermo Fisher Scientific). Thereafter, 20 μg of protein was separated by 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA). The membranes were blocked with 5% skim milk and incubated with primary antibodies supplied by Abcam (Cambridge, UK) against TSG101 (ab125011), CD81 (ab109201), calnexin (ab133615), ATG3 (ab108251), and ADAM17 (ab28233) overnight at 4 °C. The membranes were then incubated for 1 h with a secondary antibody at room temperature. A commercial chemiluminescence kit was used to visualize the immunoreactive blots, which were photographed using a Tanon 5200 camera (Tanon, Shanghai, China).

Tissue Fixation and Histological Analysis

Tissues were fixed in 10% NBF for 24 h before being dehydrated, embedded in paraffin wax, and sectioned (4 μm) using standard procedures as previously described (Zhu et al., 2016) . Sections were dewaxed in xylene and stained with Von Kossa and alizarin red (Sigma) to visualize phosphate and calcium deposition, respectively.
For immunofluorescence analysis, sections were demasked with 10 mM sodium citrate buffer. Endogenous peroxidase and nonspecific antibody binding were blocked before overnight incubation with primary antibodies LC3 (1:300; PM036; MBL International), Runx2 (1:200; Sc-390351; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), or ATG3
(1:300; ab108251; Abcam) at 4°C. The sections were then incubated for 1 h in the dark with Alexa Fluor@488 anti-rabbit antibody (Life Technologies; A11034) and Alexa Fluor@647 goat anti mouse antibody (Life Technologies; A21236). Sections were washed in PBS and stained with Hoescht (1:10,000; Sigma) and then mounted onto slides with Prolong ® Gold Anti-Fade Reagent (Life Technologies).
Fluorescence signal was detected under a Zeiss LSM 710 inverted confocal microscope. Control sections were incubated with nonimmune goat IgG (2 μg IgG/ml) in place of the primary antibody.

Western Blot Analysis of Osteogenic Markers

Cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer supplemented with Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and total protein concentration determined (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Immunoblotting was performed as previously described (Zhu et al., 2016) .
Nitrocellulose membranes were probed overnight at 4°C with primary antibodies (1:1000 dilution in LICOR blocking buffer or 5% milk in TBST) LC3 (PM036; MBL International), Atg3 (ab108251; Abcam), Runx2 (ab236639; Abcam), AMPKα (D5A2; Cell Signaling Technology), Phospho-AMPKα (Thr172) (40H9; Cell Signaling Technology), osterix (AF7580; Affinity Biosciences), Osteocalcin (ab93876; Abcam), bone sialoprotein (DF7738; Affinity Biosciences). Blots were subsequently incubated in goat anti-rabbit IRDye 680RD (926-68071; Thermo Fisher Scientific) or HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (P0449; Dako) for 1 h. Blots were then imaged using an Odyssey CLx Infrared Imaging System (Li-COR) or developed by the GeneGenome system (Syngene).
Membranes were then washed reprobed for β-actin expression (1:1000; 4970; Cell Signaling Technology). For Atg3 studies, β-actin expression was determined on a parallel membrane due to molecular weights.

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.
