CHOP (L63F7) is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes the C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP). CHOP is a transcription factor that is induced in response to various cellular stresses, including endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The antibody can be used for the detection of CHOP in various applications, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence.

Protein was extracted from islets or MIN6 cells with radioimmunoassay precipitation buffer (ThermoFisher) and quantified using bicinchoninic acid assay (ThermoFisher). 15–30 μg protein was resolved on a pre-cast 10% or 12% NuPAGE Bis-Tris gel (ThermoFisher), and transferred to a PVDF membrane as previously described [26 (link),30 (link)]. These were blocked for 1 h in 5% skim-milk, and probed at 4 °C overnight with antibodies purchased from: Sigma–Aldrich, Creb3l2 (HPA015068), beta actin (A5441); tubulin, (T6074), SEC23a, (ABC424); ThermoFisher, O-linked N-Acetylglucosamine (MAI-072); Santa Cruz, Pan 14-3-3 (sc-1657); and Cell Signalling Technology, CHOP (L63F7) (CST2895), phospho-EIF2a (Ser51) (CST 9721), phospho-mTOR (Ser2481) (CST 2974), phospho-PERK (Thr980) (CST 3179), phospho-ACC (ser79) (CST 3661), and cleaved caspase-3 (CST 9662). After chemiluminescent detection, quantification was carried out using ImageJ (NIH, Bethesda, MA, USA). All quantitative data was corrected for loading, as determined in the same gels using antibodies against beta actin, Pan 14-3-3, or tubulin.

Phosphoprotein Analysis in Liver Lysates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver lysates from mice were analyzed by SDS PAGE followed by immunoprobing with antibodies against phosphoSmad2 (Ser465/467-1:1000), phosphoStat3 (Y705-1:1000), phosphoNF-κB (S536-1:500) and CHOP (L63F7-1:1000) (Cell Signaling).

Protein lysates were prepared using RIPA buffer containing 1 mM PMSF, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 1 mM NaF, and 30 μL/mL aprotinin. The proteins (20–30 μg) were resolved in SDS-PAGE, electro-transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Hybond-ECL, GE Healthcare) and blocked with 5% BSA. Primary antibodies (1:1000 dilution) included NRF2 (D1Z9C), BiP/GRP78 (C50B12) and CHOP (L63F7) from Cell Signaling; beta-actin (ab8227) from Abcam and ATF3 (C19) from Santa Cruz. After secondary antibody incubation (1:3000, 2 h), the proteins were detected using Lumiglo substrate (Cell Signaling Technology, CA).

The heart tissues were embedded in OCT compound and cut approximately 5 µm thick sections. For immunofluorescence, slides were permeated with 0.5% Triton X‐100 for 10 minutes and blocked with goat serum at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, they were incubated with an antibody targeting anti‐p‐TAK1 (1:100, Cell Signaling Technology). The slides were washed and followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1 hour with an AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti‐Rabbit IgG (H+L) (cat# ab150077, Abcam) at 2 µg/mL and Phalloidin‐iFluor 594 reagent (1:100, cat# ab176757, Abcam). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI. Cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 minutes) and then blocked in 1% BSA in 0.1%PBS‐Tween for 1 hour. The cells were then incubated with CHOP (L63F7) (1:100, cat# 2895, Cell Signaling Technology) overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1 hour with an AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti‐Mouse secondary (cat# ab150117, Abcam) at 2 µg/mL. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI. The results were calculated blindly by counting the positive staining cells in 10 high‐power field of vision (HPF)/sections.

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.
