Mitochondria Isolation from HEK293T-FcγRII Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mitochondria were isolated from HEK293T-FcγRII cells using Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells (Thermo Fisher) with a detergent-free homogenization method (option B in the manufacturer’s instructions). Instead of using a dounce homogenizer, cells were ruptured by 15 strokes of a 26-gauge needle. Equivalent amounts of postnuclear supernatant (PNS) and cytoplasmic and mitochondrial fractions were analyzed with immunoblotting.

Cardiac mitochondria were isolated using differential centrifugation as described previously [20 (link)]. In brief, heart from 3–4-month-old mouse was excised, washed in ice-cold Chappell-Perry buffer, homogenized with a polytron homogenizer and subjected to two-step differential centrifugation (500 g and 3000 g). Mitochondrial pellet from 3000 g centrifugation was washed and subjected to further experiments. Mitochondria from cultured cells were isolated using the Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells (ThermoFisher Scientific, 89874). To assess the integrity of mitochondrial respiration complexes, mitochondrial protein was solubilized with 1% DDM and separated in 4–16% NativePAGE™ Bis-Tris Gel (ThermoFisher Scientific, BN2005, BN1002BOX).

Mitochondria were isolated from myotubes as instructed (Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells, Thermo Scientific, 89874). Briefly, 2 × 107 cell pellet was resuspended with mitochondria isolation reagent A and vortexed at medium speed for 5 s and then incubated on ice for 2 min. After incubation, 10 µl of reagent B was added and vortexed at maximum speed for 5 s followed by an additional incubation on ice for5min. After adding 800 µl of reagent C, tubes were inverted and then centrifuged (700g for 10min at 4°C). In a new tube, the supernatant was centrifuged again (12,000g for 15min at 4°C). The mitochondrial pellet was spun (12,000g for 5 min) and cleaned again by adding 500 µl of reagent C before mitochondrial lysis using RIPA buffer.

Mitochondrial Enzyme Activities Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Enzymatic activities of complexes I, II, III and IV were measured in mitochondria from all groups of cells (untreated N2a, N2a cells treated with Mdivi-1, Drp1 RNA silenced in N2a cells, N2a cells transfected with full-length Drp1 and treated with Mdivi-1 and N2a cells transfected with full-length Drp1). We used Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells (ThermoFisher Scientific Cat# 89874, 1680 Campus Delivery, Fort Collins, Colorado, USA) to isolate intact mitochondria.

Mitochondrial Isolation and Membrane Fractionation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mitochondrial isolation was performed using the Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) following the suggested protocol. Membrane fractionation was performed using the Mem-PER™ Plus Membrane Protein Extraction Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the suggested protocol. Cells were treated with 5.03 μM TP4 in membrane fractionation experiments. For the co-immunoprecipitation (coIP) experiment, equal amounts of protein lysate (500 μg) form PCDHB13-tGFP- and control tGFP-overexpressing A549 cells were harvested for IP using anti-tGFP magnetic beads (OriGene Technologies), in accordance with the recommended protocol. Cell extract preparation and Western blot were performed as previously described [14 (link)]. Protein samples were loaded in duplicate gels and transferred to separate membranes for probing with different antibodies. The results were expressed as relative densitometric units (RDU; densitometric intensities of FOSB+FOSΔB divided by that of GAPDH). Complete and unedited Western blot images were shown in Figure S9.

mtDNA was purified by adapting a previously developed protocol (18 (link)). About 20 million cells were first lysed by douncing with a 2 ml tissue mortar/pestle set (Fisher Scientific K885300-0002). Intact mitochondria were then purified according to manufacturer’s instructions using the Mitochondria Isolation Kit for Culture Cells (Thermofisher 89874). The intact mitochondria were further treated with 400U DNase I (Sigma D5025) in 200 μl modified DNase I buffer (5 mM HEPES buffer pH 7.4, 210 mM mannitol, 70 mM sucrose, 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM CaCl2, 0.2% bovine serum albumin and 1× Complete ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-free protease inhibitor cocktail) for 30 min at 37°C to digest away any DNA outside of mitochondria. Mitochondria were then centrifuged at 12 000 g for 5 min at 4°C. The mitochondrial pellet was washed with a 1:1 mixture of reagent A plus reagent C from the kit, re-centrifuged at 12 000 g for 5 min at 4°C, decanted then frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80°C before DNA extraction.

ATP measurements were performed using the Enliten® ATP assay system (Promega). Briefly, triplicate cells were split into two aliquots. One aliquot was subjected to mitochondria isolation using a mitochondria isolation kit for culture cells (ThermoFisher Scientific). Both the intact cells and isolated mitochondria pellets were resuspended in saline, with 5% taken out for SDS-PAGE analysis, the remaining saline suspension was treated 1:1 with 5% TCA (trichloroacetic acid), vortexed, then neutralized with half the original volume of 1 M Tris pH 7.75. The sample was diluted 1:1 with 1 M Tris pH 7.75. 10 μL of the diluted sample was added to 90 μL of the ATP assay reaction mix and plated in duplicate on a white-bottomed 96-well plate. Luminescence was then measured. The 5% of the original saline sample was diluted with 5× SDS buffer and run on a 7.5% SDS-PAGE gel and probed for SDHA (abcam, ab14715). The luminescence measurement was then normalized to the amount of SDHA.

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.
