Nuclear Protein Extraction and Western Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nuclear extracts of mouse PF cortex were prepared in 0.25 M sucrose buffer (sucrose 0.25 M, Tris 50 mM, EDTA 1 mM, imidazole 3 mM, pH 7.0 + proteases inhibitor cocktail). Samples were centrifuged 10 min at 250 g and nuclear fraction was resuspended in Laemmli buffer. All samples were sonicated before protein assay (BCA Pierce, Thermoscientific) and Western blotting was performed on 20 µg of protein lysates. Membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with the primary antibodies; anti-HDAC2 1∶1500 (Abcam), anti-H3 1∶10000 (Millipore), anti-tubulin 1∶4000 (Sigma), anti-CREB and phospho-CREB 1∶1000 (Millipore). Washes with PBS-Tween (0.005%) were followed by incubation with secondary antibody (1∶10 000 anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG) (GE Healthcare) coupled to horseradish peroxidase and revealed by ECL. For quantification, the membranes were stripped and reincubated with an anti-tubulin or an anti-H3 antibody. Immunoreactive bands were quantified with an electrophoresis Gel Doc 2000 imaging system coupled to a Quantity one software (Bio-Rad).

CREB and SIRT1 Protein Expression in VTA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were sacrificed throughout the LD cycle (n=6 per group or genotype per ZT) and brains were rapidly extracted and VTA was micropunched, followed by homogenization and sonication. Protein lysate (10µg) were boiled then separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to Immunobilon-FL transfer membrane (Millipore), as described previously. The following primary antibodies were used: β-actin (1:2000; Sigma A2228), GAPDH (1:1000; Fitzgerald 10R-G109a), CREB (1:1000; Millipore MAB5432), phospho-CREB (1:1000; Millipore 06-519), and SIRT1 (1:1000; Millipore 07-131) (Supplementary Methods). Optical densities were quantified by NIH ImageJ software and normalized to the reference protein. Samples with values ±1.5 standard deviations from group means were excluded.

Cell or human brain tissue lysates were prepared with protein extraction solution (Pro-Prep; Intron, SungNam, Korea) in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines. Proteins were subjected to SDS-PAGE and subsequently transferred to PVDF membrane (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) and blocked with 5% skim milk in TTBS buffer. Blots were incubated for 16 h at 4 °C with primary antibodies to DARPP-32 (1:1000; Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), phospho-DARPP-34 (1:1000; Cell Signaling), CREB (1:1000; Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany), phospho-CREB (1:1000; Millipore), c-fos (1:100; Santa Cruz), anti-HA (1:5000; Roche, Branchburg, NJ, USA), anti-spectrin (1:1000; Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, New York, USA), anti-PP1 (1:200; Santa Cruz) and β-actin (1:1000; Sigma). The blots were washed in TTBS buffer, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at 23 °C and visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Thermo, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA).

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.
