Cell lysates collected in RIPA buffer (supplemented with 1 mM PMSF, 1× protease inhibitor) were separated by SDS–PAGE, transferred to a PVDF membrane (Immobilon-P, Merck Millipore Ltd), and incubated with primary antibodies (1:1000) at 4 °C overnight. After subsequent staining with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:10000 for anti-rabbit and 1:3000 for anti-mouse antibodies; 4 °C; overnight), the signal was developed using the ECL Star kit (Euroclone SpA, according to the instruction of the manufacturer using the BioRad ChemidocTM imaging system (Image LabTM touch software, BioRad). β2-actin was used as the loading control. Western blot experiments were performed with anti-ATG5, anti-PU.1, anti-Beclin1, anti-IRF1 (D5F5U; 9G7; D40C5; D5E4, Cell Signaling Technology), anti-LC3I/LCRII (MBL-PM036, MBL International), anti-CRLS1 (PA5–25338, Invitrogen), anti-LPCAT1, anti-PGS1 (PA5–26318; PA5–43247, Invitrogen) and anti-β2 actin (SC-47778, Santa Cruz) antibodies.

Protein extracts from cultured cells were obtained by homogenization in RIPA buffer (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), then cleared by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 20 min. For immunodetection, 50 µg total protein from tumor tissue or cultured cells were mixed with Laemmli sample buffer, boiled, separated in 12 or 15% SDS-PAGE, and transferred in a PVDF membrane (Amersham-GE Healthcare). Membranes were incubated overnight using a 1:1,000 (v/v) dilution of the anti-ULK1 (Cell Signaling), 1:3,000 of the anti-Beclin-1 (Cell Signaling), 1:3,000 of the anti-LC3 (Cell Signaling), 1:3,000 of the anti-ATG4b (Santa Cruz), and 1:3,000 of the anti-HIF-1alpha (GeneTex); for detection, 1:2,500 (v/v) dilutions of HRP anti-rabbit or anti-mouse conjugate antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) were used. Finally, using the Super Signal West Femto chemiluminescent substrate (Thermo Scientific), the membranes were scanned in the C-Digit blot scanner (Li-Cor) and the images were analyzed for densitometry in the associated Image Studio software (LiCor). Membranes were stripped and re-probed for detection of actin (anti-actin, Sc-47778) as a loading control. A representative image from three independent experiments is shown.

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.
