Ten to 20 µg of protein per lane was separated by standard SDS–PAGE and transferred onto PVDF membranes. After blocking in blocking solution (BS; 100 mM Tris/HCl (pH 8.0), 450 mM NaCl, 5% dry milk, and 0.05% Tween-20), the membranes were incubated with antibodies against Total OXPHOS Human WB Antibody Cocktail (1:5000 in BS, Abcam), TOM40 (1:5000), p53 (1:5000 in BS, both from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA), and phospho-Ser139 Histone H2AX (γH2AX) (1:5000 in BS, Millipore/Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany). Equal loading of whole cell lysates was verified by the detection of HSP90 (1:5000 in BS, Santa Cruz). Peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse IgG (H + L) and anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) secondary antibodies (1:10,000; Abcam) were used and detection of specific signals was done with SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate (Pierce/Thermo Scientific). Densitometric quantification was done with ImageJ (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). Full immunoblot images are depicted in supplementary Fig. S4.

Extracts for western blot were homogenized in RIPA buffer. In brief, proteins were separated by electrophoresis and then transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes, which were processed with primary antibodies. Next, we incubated these membranes in the appropriate diluted secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. The follow primary antibodies were used: p62 (1:1000; Abcam, catalog no. ab56416), LC3 (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, catalog no. 2775s), translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 40 homolog (TOM40; 1:1000; Abcam, catalog no. ab51884), COXIV (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, catalog no. 11967), manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD; 1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, catalog no. 13141), β-actin (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, catalog no. 3700), and NeuN (1:1000; Abcam, catalog no. ab104224).

Immunoblotting Analysis of Cardiac Protein Markers

LV samples from DCM and control hearts were homogenized in a Laemmli buffer (253mM Tris/HCL pH 6.8, 8% SDS, 40% glycerin, 200mM DTT, 0.4% bromophenol blue). Proteins were quantified using the BCA Assay (Thermo Scientific Pierce Protein Biology, Schwerte, Germany). Equal amounts of total proteins were separated on SDS-polyacrylamide gels and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. The membranes were immunoblotted overnight with the following primary antibodies: AMPK (1:2000, Cell Signaling, USA), p-AMPK (1:2000, Thr172, Cell Signaling, USA), PGC-1α (1:1000 Abcam, UK), TOM40 (1:1000, Abcam, UK), TIM 23 (1:5000, BD, USA), Sirt3 (1:1000, Cell Signaling, USA), SOD2 (1:1000, Santa Cruz, USA), catalase (1:1000, Cell Signaling, USA), NFκBp65 (1:200, Santa Cruz, USA) and FOXO1 (1:1000, Cell Signaling, USA). Equal sample loading was confirmed by analysis of actin (1:1000, Santa Cruz, USA), HSP60 (1:1000, Cell Signaling, USA) or Ponceau S staining. Immunoreactive proteins were detected using ECL Plus (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK) and quantified with ImageLab (version 5.2.1 build 11, Bio-Rad Laboratories (USA)).

Total cells were lysed with 2% SDS solution plus protease and phosphatase inhibitors (Thermo Scientific). Protein concentrations were tested by BCA kit and equivalent proteins were loaded into SDS-PAGE. Following western blots were performed according to standard procedures. The primary antibodies were list as follow: MTCH2 (Proteintech, Cat#16888-1-AP), Beta actin (Boster Biological Technology, Cat#BM0627), PDHE1-A (Abcam, Cat#ab110334), GFAP (Millipore, Cat#G3893), Tom20 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Cat#sc-136211), Tom40 (Abcam, Cat#ab185543), MMP-9 (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#3852), N-cadherin (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#4061), Vimentin (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#5741), 4-HNE (Abcam, Cat#ab48506), BcL-2 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Cat#sc-7382), Bax (Millipore, Cat#06-499), phospho-AKT (Thr308) (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#2965), phospho-AKT (Ser473) (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#4060), AKT (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#9272), phospho-S6 (Ser240/244) (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#2215), S6 (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#2217), phospho-4EBP1 (Thr37/46) (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#9459), total OXPHOs rodent antibody cocktail (Abcam, Cat#110413), phospho-Cofilin1 (Ser3) (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#3313), Cofilin1 (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#5175), PARP (Abclonal, Cat#A0942) and cleaved caspase 3 (Cell Signaling Technology, Cat#9661).

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.
