Protein samples (either 1 µg of recombinant proteins or 30 µg of cell lysates per lane) were separated by electrophoresis using 12% concentrating SDS polyacrylamide gels. The samples were prepared by adding Pierce Lane Marker Reducing Sample Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 39000, Rockford, IL, USA) and boiling for 10 min. Prestained Protein Ladder (10 to 180 kDa, Thermo Fisher Scientific, 26616) was used as size standard. After the electrophoresis (Minigel-Twin 846-010-100 and Multigel 846-010-200, Biometra, Göttingen, Germany), gels were stained with PageBlue™ Protein Staining Solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 24620, Vilnius, Lithuania).

EV sample was concentrated using Concentrator plus 5305 Vacuum Centrifuge (Eppendorf AG, Germany), and protein concentration was measured with Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific). Concentrated sEV preparations and lysate of HCT116 cells were lysed in Pierce Lane Marker Reducing Sample Buffer (Thermo Scientific), heated for 5 min at 95 °C, and subjected to electrophoresis using 10% SDS-PAGE. Proteins were transferred to an Immobilon-P PVDF Membrane (Merck Millipore) and the excess protein binding sites on the membrane were saturated with 5% bovine serum albumin blocking buffer (1 × TBS, 0.1% Tween-20) for 1 h. The membrane was incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibody. The following antibodies were used: anti-CD81 (1:250, mouse, catalogue number sc166029), anti-CD63 (1:300, mouse, sc5275) from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, anti-Alix (1:20000, rabbit, ab186429) from Abcam, anti-TSG101 (1:200, mouse, 612696) from BD Biosciences, and anti-Calnexin (1:1000, rabbit, 2679) from Cell Signaling. After incubation, the membrane was washed three times with 5% TBS-Tween and then, incubated with peroxidase-labelled secondary antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) for one hour.

Analyzing Secreted Proteins by Western Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An equal number of cells were seeded per sample in order to ensure equal sample loading for all supernatants analysed by Western blot. Thus, 750 000 cells per well were seeded when using 6-well plates, or they were seeded to 75–80% confluence in cell-culture flasks. Proteins from cell-free culture supernatants were concentrated using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (Koontz, 2014 (link)). One hundred percent TCA was added to supernatants for a final concentration of 20%. Samples were vortexed and incubated on ice for 30 min. After incubation, samples were centrifuged at 800 × g and supernatants were discarded. The pellets were washed twice with 100% cold acetone and allowed to air-dry. Pellets were resuspended with Pierce Lane Marker Reducing Sample Buffer (Thermo Scientific) and boiled at 95°C for 5 min. Samples were loaded and run on SDS-PAGE gels and transferred onto PVDF membranes. Membranes were blocked with 5% BSA for 1 h at RT, and then incubated with anti-TMS1 (Abcam), caspase-1 (Nathan), IL-1β (Abcam), anti-NLRP3 (Cell Signaling) or HMGB1 (Nathan) primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. After primary incubation, blots were washed and incubated with secondary goat anti-rabbit HRP (Millipore) for another hour. Finally, membranes were washed and exposed to Luminata Forte (Millipore) substrate. Images were acquired using ChemiDoc XRS+ system and analysed using NIH-ImageJ.

Polysomal fractions (1 mL) or pellet/supernatant fractions from 30% sucrose cushioning (1/5th of total amount, adjusted to 260 µL volume) were processed for methanol/chloroform protein extraction. Briefly, 600 µL of methanol and 150 µL of chloroform were added to each sample and samples were vortexed. Then, 450 µL of deionized water were added to each sample and samples were vortexed again. Samples were centrifuged at 14,000 × g for 1 min at room temperature, and the resulting aqueous phase was removed without disrupting the underlying white ring (protein interface). Subsequently, 450 µL of methanol were added to each sample, samples were vortexed, and then centrifuged at 14,000 × g for 2 min at room temperature. After centrifugation, supernatants were removed and pellets air-dried. Finally, pellets were resuspended in deionized water supplemented with Pierce Lane Marker Reducing Sample Buffer (Thermo Scientific #39000) to a final volume of 15 µL and either stored at −80°C or heated at 95°C and directly used for SDS-PAGE.

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.
