The RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime,
Shanghai, China) was used to extract proteins from the astrocytes
according to the instruction of the manufacturer, followed by protein
quantification using a BCA assay kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China).
For each sample, 30 μg of total protein was loaded and separated
by 12% SDS-PAGE, followed by being transferred to the polyvinylidene

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.
