Equal amounts of protein were heated to 70°C for 10 mins with NuPAGE® LDS Sample Buffer (4X) (Life Technologies) and run on NuPAGE® Novex® 4-12% Bis-Tris gels (Life Technologies) and transferred to PVDF membranes (Life Technologies). Membranes were blocked for one hour at room temperature (RT) with 5% dried skimmed milk (Marvel) in PBS with 0.1% Tween-20. Membranes were then incubated with primary antibody at a dilution of 1:200 for CCND2 (ab3085, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and 1:10,000 for β-actin (ab8226, Abcam) overnight in blocking solution at 4°C with slight agitation. The membranes were washed with 0.1% Tween-20 in PBS and then incubated with secondary antibody for 1 hour at RT. The secondary antibody (polyclonal goat anti-mouse immunoglobulins/HRP, P0447, Dako, Ely UK) was diluted 1:10,000 in blocking solution. Membranes were then washed in PBS with 0.1% Tween-20, developed with SuperSignal West Femto Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Scientific) and visualized using a Geldoc XR system (Biorad, Hemel Hempstead, UK). Experiments were performed in triplicate and .tiff images were analyzed using ImageJ24 (link). Bands were quantified and intensities determined relative to the corresponding ‘0’ time point. CCND2 intensity was normalized with β-actin.

Protein Expression in P4 Hearts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hearts of P4 pups were homogenized and protein isolated using the RIPA lysis buffer system (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Protein concentrations were quantified using the BCA protein assay (ThermoScientific) and all samples were loaded with equal protein onto 10% polyacrylamide gel with 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Proteins were then separated by electrophoresis and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes. Non-specific binding sites were blocked with Tris-buffered saline solution (TBS) containing 5% dry milk. The membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against cyclin D2 (ab3085, Abcam; 1:1000), and p27 (ab7961, Abcam; 1:1000). After washing, membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies. Proteins were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents and Western blots were exposed to Hyperfilm. To assure equal loading and minimize variability among gels, samples were normalized to GAPDH.

Cardiac Protein Abundance in Anoxia

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HIF-1α, ETA-receptor (ETAR), and ETB-receptor (ETBR) protein abundance in the P4 heart was measured from control and anoxia groups. The protein abundance of cyclin D2 and p27 was measured in P4 hearts from control and anoxia groups as well as in the presence and absence of PD156707. Tissues were homogenized and protein isolated using the RIPA lysis buffer system (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Protein concentrations were quantified using the BCA protein assay (ThermoScientific) and all samples were loaded with equal protein onto 7.5% (HIF-1α) or 10% (ETAR, and ETBR, cyclin D2, and p27) polyacrylamide gel with 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Proteins were then separated by electrophoresis and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes. Non-specific binding sites were blocked with Tris-buffered saline solution (TBS) containing 5% dry milk. The membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against HIF-1α (sc10790, Santa Cruz Biotechnology; 1:500), ETAR (sc33536, Santa Cruz Biotechnology; 1:500), ETBR (sc33538, Santa Cruz Biotechnology; 1:500), cyclin D2 (ab3085, Abcam; 1:1000), and p27 (ab7961, Abcam; 1:1000). After washing, membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies. Proteins were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents and western blots were exposed to Hyper film. Kodak image software was used to quantify all results.

Renal Protein Expression Analysis

Proteins were extracted from the whole kidney and homogenized in protein lysis buffer. Equal amount of protein (60 μg) was subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The blots were blocked at room temperature (RT) for 1h with 5% nonfat dry milk in Tris-buffered saline (TBS) and probed with the following antibodies: rabbit anti-NHE3 (Catalog No.: AB3085, Abcam, Cambridge, MA), anti-NKCC2 (Catalog No.: SPC-401, Stressmarq Biosciences Inc., Canada), anti-NCC (Catalog No.: SPC-402, Stressmarq Biosciences Inc., Canada), anti-ENaCα (Catalog No.: SPC-403, Stressmarq Biosciences Inc., Canada) and anti-ENaCγ (Catalog No.: SPC-405, Stressmarq Biosciences Inc., Canada) at a dilution of 1: 1,000 at 4°C overnight. After incubated with secondary antibodies (Catalog No.: sc-2004, goat anti-rabbit IgG, Santa Cruz) at RT for 1h, membranes were visualized using Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate (Thermo Scientific). Quantification was performed using Image-Pro Plus 6.0 software.

Quantification of Cardiac Proliferation Markers

VSD heart tissue sections (8μm) were used for Ki67 and cyclin D2 staining. The initial slide was selected using a random number generator and every seventh slide after was chosen for microscopy by systematic random selection. The slides were stained overnight with mouse monoclonal antibodies against cardiac troponin T (Abcam, ab8295, 1:200) and an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated rabbit anti-Ki67 antibodies (Abcam, ab154201; 1:200) or rabbit antibody against cardiac sarcomeric alpha actinin (Abcam, ab90776, 1:200) and mouse antibody against cyclin D2(Abcam, ab3085,1:200). After three washes, the sections were incubated with Alexa Fluor® 555-conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibodies (Abcam, ab150107; 1:200) or Alexa Fluor® 555-conjugated anti-rabbit secondary antibody (CST, 4409, 1:500) and an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody (Abcam, ab150073, 1:500) for 30 min. Three researchers who were blinded to sample identities performed the quantification of cellular Ki67 and cyclin D2 events using either manual counting or digital thresholding (image segmentation and the creation of a binary image from a gray scale) methods. Analysis of the converted binary images was performed using ImageJ (National Institutes of Health).

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.
