After various treatments, the cells were washed with PBS and lysed with RIPA lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 150 mM NaCl, 0.02 % sodium azide, 0.1 % sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 1 % Nonidet P-40, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF)). Equal amounts of protein from the different treatment groups were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (10 % gel) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Biosciences). The membranes were blocked with 4 % skim milk in Tris-buffered saline Tween-20 (TBST) and then incubated with primary antibodies (goat anti-PTP1B (1:500 dilution, Santa Cruz Biotechnology), polyclonal rabbit anti-phospho- or total forms of Src (1:1000 dilution, Cell signaling), rabbit anti-IκB (1:1000 dilution, Santa Cruz), mouse anti-β-actin (1:2000 dilution, Sigma-Aldrich), mouse anti-α-tubulin (1:5000 dilution, Sigma-Aldrich), and goat anti-LCN2 (1:500 dilution, R&D systems)). After thorough washing with TBST, horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies were applied. The blots were developed using an enhanced chemiluminescence detection kit (SuperSignal™ West Femto, ThermoFisher).

Triple immunostaining was performed as follows. Free-floating brain tissue sections were incubated simultaneously with mouse anti-GFAP (1:500; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), rabbit anti-ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1, 1:150; Wako, Osaka, Japan), and goat anti-LCN2 (1:200; R&D Systems). To distinguish between the mouse primary antibody and endogenous mouse immunoglobulins in the mouse brain, we used the Mouse on Mouse (MOM) immunodetection kit (Vector Laboratories, CA, USA). Samples were then washed three times with 0.1 M PBS and incubated with Alexa Fluor 488-, 594-, and 790-conjugated donkey anti-mouse, anti-rabbit, or anti-goat secondary antibody (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for 1 h at room temperature. Fluorescence was visualized with a BX51-DSU microscope (Olympus) and digital images were captured.

To examine the expression and distribution of LCN2, 5-µm cryostat liver sections were incubated with one or two primary antibodies overnight: goat anti-LCN2 (1:100; R&D) and rat anti-Ly6G/6C (a marker of neutrophils; 1:100; BD Diagnostic Systems) or goat anti-LCN2 and rat anti-F4/80 (a marker of macrophages; 1:100; Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc.). The secondary antibodies were Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated donkey anti goat or rat IgG (1:200) or Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated donkey anti-goat or rat IgG (1:200) from the Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories (West Grove, PA, USA). As a negative control, the sections were exposed to nonimmune IgG (in replacement of primary antibodies) with the same secondary antibodies, and no specific staining was observed. After nuclear staining with DAPI, the slides were mounted with ProLong gold antifade reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The sections were observed and imaged by a Leica confocal microscope (Wetzlar, Germany).

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.
