Total protein was extracted with RIPA buffer (Beyotime, China). Then the concentrations in the samples were determined with BCA (Beyotime, China) methods. Next, the protein samples were separated with 10% SDS-PAGE gel (Beyotime, China). After that, the proteins were transferred to the PVDF membrane (Millipore, United States). Then, the membranes were blocked with a 5% skim milk powder solution (BD Bioscience, Regilait, France). After that, the membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies at 4°C. The primary antibodies used in this study were TNF-α (ABCAm, ab34674), IL-1β (ABCAm, ab200478), IL-18 (ABCAm, ab71495), NRF-2 (ABCAm, ab137550), HO-1 (ABCAm, ab137749) and GAPDH (ABCAm, ab181602). On Day 2, the membranes were washed with PBST three times. The membranes were then incubated with the second antibody for 2 hours. Finally, bands were developed with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Millipore, United States).

Protein was isolated from cultured cells using lysis buffer that contained protease/phosphatase inhibitors. The quantification was determiend by the BCA Protein Assay kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA). Subsequently, after 5 min of denaturation at 95°C, samples in each group were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide (SDS-PAGE) gel. The PVDF membranes (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) were used for the tank blot system. Next, the membrane was incubated with 5% skimmed milk containing 0.05% Tween-20 (TBST) at room temperature for 2 h. The primary antibodies were incubated at 4°C overnight: anti-Nrf2 (1:1,000, ab62352; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-NQO-1 (1:800, ab34173), anti-HO-1 (1:1,000, ab137749), anti-BNP (1:500, ab19645), anti-β-MHC (1:500, ab23990), anti-GAPDH (ab9385, 1:5,000). The horseradish-peroxidase-coupled secondary IgG antibodies were incubated at room temperature for 1 h. ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Amersham; GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) was adopted to develop chemiluminescence signals using the ChemiDoc XRS Imaging System (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.). Finally, the expression level was calculated by the densitometric analysis (Quantity One; Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.).

Western blot analysis was performed to analyze the influence of betaine treatment on the MAPK pathway, ROS-related enzymes and osteoclastogenesis-related markers. We used M-PER mammalian protein extraction reagent (Pierce, Rockford, IL, United States) to extract total protein from BMMCs. Twenty micrograms of protein sample per lane was loaded onto (11%) SDS-PAGE gels. When the protein sample reached the bottom of the gel, the power was cut off, electrophoresis was stopped, and the protein bands were transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Bio-Rad, 1620177). The primary antibodies included anti-P38 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab170099), anti-P-P38 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab195049), anti-ERK (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab17942), anti-P-ERK (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab201025), anti-JNK (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab179461), anti-P-JNK (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab124956), anti-TRAF6 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab137452), anti-Nox1 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab121009), anti-HO1 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab137749), anti-catalase (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab217793), anti-TRAP (Abcam, 1:5,000, ab52750), anti-MMP9 (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab228402), and anti-Cathepsin K (Abcam, 1:1,000, ab187647), followed by the secondary antibody (Biosharp, 1:5,000, BL003A).

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.
