For caspase-1 analysis, BMDMs were lysed together with the supernatant using 50 μl caspase lysis buffer (1× protease inhibitors, 1× phosphatase inhibitors, 10% NP-40, and 25 mM DTT). Then 125 μl 4× SDS loading buffer was added for boiling the samples. For analysis of all other proteins, the supernatants of stimulated cells were discarded, and then cells were washed once with PBS, after which RIPA lysis buffer was added to lyse the cells.
Electrophoresis was conducted to separate proteins in 10%−12% polyacrylamide gels. Then proteins were transferred onto PVDF membranes and blocked with 5% skim milk for 1 h at room temperature. All the primary antibodies were incubated overnight at 4°C, while secondary antibodies with HRP were incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Images were developed via a GE Amersham Imager 600. And final images were analyzed via Fiji for MacOS X (version 2.0.0-rc-67/1.52c).
The antibodies used were: anti-caspase-1 (AdipoGen, AG-20B-0042, 1:2000), anti-GSDMD (abcam, ab209845, 1:1000), anti-pERK (Cell Signaling Technology [CST], #9101, 1:1000), anti-pIκB (CST, #2859, 1:1000), anti-ERK (CST, #9102, 1:1000), anti-IκB (CST, #9242, 1:1000), anti-β-actin (Proteintech, 66009–1-IG, 1:5000), anti-GAPDH (CST, #5174, 1:1000) and HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, anti-rabbit [111–035-047], 1:5000; anti-mouse [315–035-047], 1:5000).

Lung Histopathology and Mucin Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The upper lobe of left lung without lavage was immediately fixed with 10% formaldehyde for 48 h, embedded in paraffin, sliced into 4 μm thick sections, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin solution (H&E) or Alcian blue periodic acid Schiff (AB/PAS) for histopathologic examination and goblet cell metaplasia of bronchial epithelium.
For analyzing the effects of GFDHP on mucus secretion, the Mucin5ac (Muc5ac) protein expression levels in the airway epithelium were performed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis [18 (link)]. Change in the MAPK pathway in the airway was investigated on the basis of detecting Muc5ac regulatory proteins including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/p-ERK/specificity protein1(SP1) through IHC. After antigen was repaired and endogenous peroxidase was inactivated and blocked, the sections were incubated overnight at 4°C with anti-Muc5ac (Abcam, USA, dilution 1 : 200), anti-ERK (dilution 1 : 200), anti-p-ERK (dilution 1 : 500), and anti-SP1 (dilution 1 : 200) antibodies (Proteintech, China) successively. The sections were then incubated with horseradish peroxidase- (HRP-) conjugated second antibodies and developed with 3, 3-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride. The degree of brown stains reflected the expression levels of the target proteins.

In a radio-immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer, the proteins were extracted from GC cells. Ten percents of polyacrylamide sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gels (SDS-PAGE) were used to separate equivalent amounts of proteins. The proteins were then blotted onto membranes of polyvinylidene fluoride (Amersham, UK). After membranes were blocked at RT (37°C) in bovine serum albumin (5%) for 1 h, primary antibodies were used to culture the membranes overnight. After being cultured, they were placed in secondary antibodies conjugated with human resource planning (Perbio Science, Belgium), and incubated at RT (37°C) for 1 h. The system of enhanced chemiluminescence immunodetection (Immobilon, USA) was used to visualize immunoreactive proteins. The antibodies for Western blotting were as follows: anti-KIF22 (13403-1-AP; Proteintech Group, USA), anti-Phospho-MEK1/2 (CST: #9154; Proteintech Group), anti-MEK (CST: #8727; Cell Signaling Technology, USA), anti-Phospho-ERK1/2 (CST: #4370; Proteintech Group), anti-ERK (16443-1-AP; Proteintech Group), anti-Cyclin A2 (18202-1-AP; Proteintech Group), anti-Cyclin B1 (55004-1-AP; Proteintech Group), anti-Cyclin D1 (26939-1-AP; Proteintech Group), anti-P21 (10355-1-AP; Proteintech Group), and β-actin (20536-1-AP; Proteintech Group).

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.
