Western Blot Analysis of SOD1 and SOD2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Proteins from untransfected and stably transfected cell extracts were subjected to SDS-PAGE (12%) and blotted onto PVDF membranes (Immobilion, Millipore). Blots were then incubated with rabbit polyclonal antibody for SOD1 or SOD2 (Prestige, Sigma) and mouse monoclonal antibody for β-tubulin (Sigma). The PVDF membranes were probed with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit or anti-mouse IgG (Sigma). Immunoreactive proteins were visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence advance (ECL, GE Healthcare). Densitometry was carried out using Image J Software and the constitutively expressed β-tubulin protein was used as loading control.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Monocytes and macrophages (3.5×106 cells) were lysed in Laemmli sample buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl, pH 6.8, 0.04% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 20% glycerol, 0.12% 2-mercaptoethanol). Proteins in the lysates were subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Proteins in the gel were then electrically transferred to a membrane (Immobilion; Millipore, Billerica, MA). Blots were blocked and probed with anti-CypA affinity rabbit polyclonal antibody (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) overnight at 4°C. Blots then were incubated with peroxidase-linked protein A (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK), and bound antibodies were visualized with a Chemilumi-One chemiluminescent kit (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan). Quantities of cell lysate were normalized by CypA level, then subjected to a new round of SDS-PAGE and membrane transfer. For the new blot, SAMHD1 protein in the membrane was detected with anti-SAMHD1 (611–625) rabbit antibody (Sigma) followed by peroxidase-linked protein A (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK) detection as described above.

Cells were lysed in CelLytic buffer (Sigma) supplemented with 1% protease inhibitor ‘cocktail’ (Pierce). Protein samples were subsequently separated by electrophoresis through NuPAGE (Invitrogen) 4–12% Bis-Tris gradient gels or 4–12% pre-cast XT-Criterion gradient gels (Biorad, Hercules, CA), and were then transferred to PVDF membranes (Immobilion; Millipore). Afterwards, blots were blocked in 5% milk in TBST and incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies (Supplementary Table 4). After incubation with primary antibodies, blots were washed with 0.1% TBST three times for 10 minutes each, followed by incubation with secondary antibodies (goat anti-mouse or goat anti-rabbit antibodies, ThermoFisher Scientific) conjugated with alkaline phosphatase (AP) in 5% milk in TBST at room temperature for an hour. Washing was repeated as above, and blots were visualized using Novex™ AP Chemiluminescent Substrate (CDP-Star™) (ThermoFisher Scientific). Blots were developed either on films or on Biorad Chemodoc MP Imaging system with Image Lab 5.1 software.

Total proteins were extracted from the cell lines using RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). Tissue lysates were centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 5 min at 4°C, and the supernatants were collected for further analysis. The protein concentration was determined using BCA protein Assay Kit (Beyotime). Fifty μg of total protein were mixed with loading buffer, denatured at 95°C for 5 min, resolved on a 10% SDS polyacrylamide gels and electro-transferred to PVDF membranes (Bio-RAD, CA). After being blocked with 5% milk and 1% bovine serum albumin solution, the membrane was incubated at 4°C overnight with the following primary antibodies: anti-Cleaved-caspase3, anti-BCL-2, anti-Bax, anti-p-STAT5a, anti-STAT5a, anti-p-AKT, anti-AKT, anti-p-ERK1/2, anti-ERK1/2, and anti-GAPDH (Acbam, diluted 1:1000). On the following day, the membrane was washed 3 times with TBST and then incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Acbam, diluted 1:5,000) for 2 h at room temperature. The protein bands were developed with a chemiluminescence detection system (Immobilion, Millipore), and the relative band intensity was analyzed using ImageJ software.

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.
