Pancreatic ER fractions as well as total tissue lysates were examined by Western blot as follows: ER fractions (10–20 μg) were separated on Invitrogen Tris-glycine sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis 4%–20% gradient gels, transferred to nitrocellulose membranes using Bio-Rad (Hercules, CA) TransBlot Turbo rapid transfer system (15 minutes at a constant current of 1.25 A per minigel), and blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin in Tris-buffered saline buffer with 0.075% Tween 20. Subsequent incubations and washes were performed in Tris-buffered saline with 0.075% Tween 20. Primary antibodies used against lipase, carboxyl ester lipase (Cel) (sc-34878), signal recognition particle 72 were from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies (Santa Cruz, CA). Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 antibody was from Cellular Signaling Technologies (Beverly, MA). ActivX Desthiobiotin-FP Serine Hydrolase Probe and streptavidin–horseradish peroxidase were from Thermo Fisher Scientific. ER fractions (50 μg) were incubated with probe (2 μg/mL) in 10 mmol/L Tris-HCl, pH 7.4 for 20 minutes at room temperature, then Triton X-100 (Bio-Rad) was added to 1% and the clarified mixture was incubated for a further 20 minutes at room temperature. Samples then were prepared by addition of gel loading buffer and further processed for Western blot as described earlier.

Cells were harvested using standard techniques (cell lysis buffer containing protease inhibitors). Using a Lowry protein assay (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) cell protein concentration was determined and ~30 µg total protein was loaded onto 10% or 4–15% gradient gels (Criterion Gel System; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes using a Bio-Rad Trans-Blot Turbo rapid transfer system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Membranes were blocked with either Odyssey Blocking buffer (Li-Cor Biosciences, Lincoln, NE) or 5% milk in Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween (TBST) for 1 h at room temperature. Membranes were incubated overnight in 1 µg/mL of primary antibody of interest at 4°C. Primary antibodies included: VDR (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX), phosphorylated and total extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK 1/2), phosphorylated and total c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), phosphorylated and total p38, phosphorylated and total smad 2, p50 (Santa Cruz), p65 (Santa Cruz), and GAPDH. Following three washes with TBST, infrared dye-conjugated secondary antibody (LiCor Biosciences) was added. Membranes were imaged on a Li-Cor OdysseyXL system and densitometry was quantified with Image Studio software. Protein blots were normalized to GAPDH unless otherwise specified.

Cells were harvested using standard techniques (cell lysis buffer containing protease inhibitors). Protein was separated by SDS PAGE using a 4–15% Tris-HCl gel and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes using a Bio-Rad Trans-Blot Turbo rapid transfer system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Primary antibodies used include BDNF, Epac1, Epac2 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA), and β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Membranes were imaged on a Li-Cor OdysseyXL system and densitometry was quantified with Image Studio software. Protein blots were normalized to β-actin.

The supernatants were removed, and the cells were washed with PBS three times. Then, the cells were lysed by radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) supplemented with 5× SDS-PAGE sample loading buffer and heated at 95 °C for 10 min. Then, the proteins were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes by a Trans-Blot Turbo rapid transfer system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The membranes were blocked in Tris-buffered saline (TBS) supplemented with 5% milk for 2 h at room temperature and then incubated with a primary antibody at 4 °C overnight. The membranes were then washed in TBS supplemented with 0.1% Tween 20 and incubated with the HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. The membranes were washed and imaged.

For western blot analysis, cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) and denatured by adding 4× Laemmle SDS-PAGE buffer (containing DL-dithiothreitol), followed by heating for 15 min at 100 °C. The proteins were then separated on SDS-PAGE gels and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes using a Trans-Blot Turbo rapid transfer system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The membranes were blocked in 5% defatted milk (dissolved in Tris-buffered saline (TBS)) for 1 h at 37 °C and then incubated with a primary antibody for 1 h at room temperature or overnight at 4 °C. The membranes were then washed three times (5 min per time) using a wash buffer (TBS containing 0.1% Tween 20) and incubated with an IRDye® 800CW secondary antibody for 1 h at 37 °C. The membranes were washed three times in wash buffer and imaged using an Odyssey Imaging System (LI-COR, USA) to visualize the protein bands. α-Tubulin was used as the loading control.

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.
