The protein extraction process in this study can be referred to the existing study of Yi et al. (2018) (link). Protein weighing 20–30 µg were electrophoresed on SDS polyacrylamide gels. We then transferred the proteins to membranes, which were blocked with skimmed milk (5%) for 2 h at room temperature. Incubation of primary antibodies with the proteins was stored overnight at 4°C as follows: anti-P2X7 (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), anti-TRPV1 (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), anti-IL-18 (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), anti-TNF-α (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), anti-IL-6 (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), anti-IL-1β (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States), or anti-GAPDH (Affinity Biosciences, OH, United States).
The membranes were rinsed with TBST for 10 min for triplicates and incubated for 2 h with the secondary antibodies (Boster Biological Technology Co. Ltd.). ECL chemiluminescence detection and development with a gel imaging system were performed finally. Results analysis for this section was realized via ImageJ.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The kidney tissues were homogenized and the supernatant was collected after centrifugation at 12,000 ×g at 4°C for 20 min [23 (link)]. We separated the lysates on 10% polyacrylamide gels before immunoblotting using anti-Nlrp3 (AdipoGen company, San Diego, CA), anti-ASC (AdipoGen company, San Diego, CA), anti-CHOP (Cell Signaling Technology, USA), anti-caspase-12 (Cell Signaling Technology, USA), anti-IL-1β (Affinity Biosciences, USA), and anti-IL-18 (Affinity Biosciences, USA) antibodies at a dilution of 1 : 500. The expression levels of CHOP, caspase-12, ASC, Nlrp3, IL-1β, and IL-18 were analyzed using an ECL advance system (Amersham, Little Chalfont, UK). The relative protein expression levels were determined by normalization to β-actin. Serum IL-1β and IL-18 were measured with ELISA kits (RayBiotech, Norcross, GA) according to the manufacturer's instruction.

We lysed and Western blotted rat renal tissue as described previously [17 (link)]. We separated lysates on 10% polyacrylamide gels, before immunoblotting using anti- NLRP3 (adipoGen company, San Diego, CA), anti-ASC (adipoGen company, San Diego, CA) antibody, anti-IL-1β (Affinity Biosciences, USA) and anti-IL-18 (Affinity Biosciences, USA) antibody at a dilution of 1:500. We used a semi-quantitative analysis using densitometry, and used β-actin to standardize the amount of protein loaded on the blots.

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.
