Macrophages were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and 1% glutaraldehyde for 10 min. Followed by rinsing and blocking with 2% BSA, macrophages were stained with primary antibodies for M1 markers CD68 (Abcam ab955) and CD86 (Abcam, ab53004) and M2 markers CD163 (Abcam, ab87099), CD206 (Abcam, ab8918), and phosphorylated STAT6 (Abcam, ab28829). Secondary antibody staining was done with Alexa Fluor 488, goat anti-mouse IgG (Abcam, ab150113) and Cy5, and goat anti-rabbit IgG (Abcam, ab6563). PROTOCOL Hema 3 staining systems (Fisher Scientific) were used to stain macrophage morphology according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

The expression levels of STAT1, STAT4, STAT6 and the corresponding phosphorylated proteins in lung digests were analyzed by Western blot analysis. Cell lysates (40 μg) were separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Roche, USA). After incubation in a blocking buffer containing 5% skim milk in TBST (12.5 mM Tris–HCl pH 7.5, 68.5 mM NaCl, and 0.1% Tween 20) for 1 h, the blots were incubated overnight with primary antibodies including rabbit anti-STAT1 (D1K9Y, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), rabbit anti-phosphorylated STAT1 (Tyr701, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), rabbit anti-STAT4 (C46B10, Cell Signaling Technology, USA), rabbit anti-phosphorylated STAT4 (ab28815, Abcam, UK), rabbit anti-STAT6 (ab32520, Abcam, UK), and rabbit anti-phosphorylated STAT6 (ab28829, Abcam, UK).

Fifty microgram of total protein was separated through SDS-PAGE at 100 V for 2 h in the 12% polyacrylamide gel. It was then electrically transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane. After being blocked with 5% skim milk for 1 h at room temperature, the membrane was rinsed 3 times with TBST for 10 min each time. Antibodies specific to STAT6 (ab32520; Abcam), p-STAT6 (ab28829; Abcam) (concentration 1:1000) were added to incubate the membrane overnight at 4 °C. After the incubation, the membrane was rinsed with TBST; the membrane then was incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled anti-rabbit secondary antibody (concentration 1:3000) for 1 h at room temperature.

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.
