The whole hearts were cut into small pieces, then lysed on ice with cell lysis buffer supplemented with protease inhibitor and PMSF for 30 min. Then, samples were centrifuged at 12,000 g at 4 °C for 15 min. The concentration of total protein was determined using BCA protein detection kit (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA); 50 μg total protein was separated on 10% SDS-PAGE gel, and then transferred to 0.45 μm PVDF membrane (Amersham Hybond, GE Healthcare, München, Germany). The PVDF membrane was blocked with TBST (Tris buffered saline, 0.2% Tween) buffer and 5% milk at room temperature for 2 h, and then incubated at 4 °C overnight with primary antibodies: rabbit anti-TGF-β1 (1:1,000), rabbit anti-Smad2/3 (1:1,000), rabbit anti-p53 (1:1,000), rabbit anti-Bax (1:1,000), rabbit anti-Bcl-2 (1:1,000), rabbit anti-β-actin (1:5,000). After been washed with TBST buffer, the membrane was incubated with goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. Subsequently, the membrane was washed with TBST buffer and tested with ECL Kit (ThermoFisher, USA). Protein expression of β-actin was used as an internal control. Image J software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA) was used for gray-scale quantitative analysis.

We utilized cell lysis buffer (Beyotime), containing 1% PMSF (Amresco), to cleave proteins for 30 minutes on ice. Then, we centrifuged the lysed cells at 12 000 g for 10 minutes at 4°C to extract the supernatant for protein quantification. We utilized the BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) to quantify protein concentration. The obtained supernatant was then boiled for 10 minutes by adding 5X SDS. Protein (50 μg) was added to the prepared 12% SDS‐PAGE gels for electrophoretic separation and transferred to 0.45 µm PVDF membranes (Amersham Hybond, GE Healthcare). We then utilized 1% albumin from bovine serum (Amresco) to block the PVDF membranes for 2 hours. Then, the membranes were incubated overnight with diluted xCT (1:1000, ab37185; Abcam) and β‐actin (1:1000, ab179467; Abcam) antibodies on a shaker at 4°C. We washed the membranes with TBS‐T (0.1% Tween‐20) at room temperature three times for 10 minutes. The goat anti‐rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (1:2000, ab7090; Abcam) for 1 hour was utilized to incubate the membranes. After washed, the membranes were exposed to enhanced chemiluminescence substrate detection solution (Lulong Biotech) subsequently.

Expression of GFP was analyzed in automiG induced cells by western blotting using mouse anti-GFP (Roche®) and anti-Mbf1 antibodies (66 (link)) as loading and transfer control. Seventy two hours after the dsRNA transfection and automiG vector induction, the culture medium was removed and 80 μl of Sample Buffer Laemmli 2X (Sigma®) was added in each well. The samples were boiled (95°C) and 18 μl were loaded onto a 4–20% Mini-PROTEAN®TGX™ 12 well-gel (Bio-Rad). After transfer onto a PVDF (Amersham Hybond, GE Healthcare) or nitrocellulose membrane, membranes were blocked in 5% milk, dissolved in 1× TBS-T (20 mM Tris-Base, 150 mM NaCl, Tween-20 (Polyoxyethylene sorbitane monolaureate) to 0.05%) and incubated overnight with anti-GFP (1:2000) or anti-Mbf1 (1:10.000) antibodies diluted in the blocking solution. After three times 15 min washes, appropriate secondary antibody (1:10 000) coupled to alkaline phosphatase (Promega) was added and incubated for one hour at room temperature. Detection was performed using BCIP (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate) and NBT (nitro-blue-tetrazolium, (ThermoFischer) reagents diluted in AP buffer (100 mM Tris–HCl pH 9.5, 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2).

Following 24 h of treatment with A009 extract (1:250, batch 4 or 3) or HyT alone at the same concentration present in A009 dilutions, the cells were lysed in RIPA buffer, supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktails (Roche Diagnostics GmbH). Proteins (50 μg) were separated on the NupageNovex on 4–12% Bis-Tris Gel (Life Technologies) and transferred to a PVDF membrane Amersham Hybond (GE Healthcare Biosciences). Membranes were incubated overnight at 4 °C with anti-p-STAT3 (Tyr705) (Cell Signaling Technology) and with peroxidase-linked anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibodies (GE Healthcare Life science) for 1 h at room temperature. Specific protein bands were detected with Pierce ECL Western Blotting Substrate (ThermoFisher Scientific).

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.
