Atrial Tissue Protein Analysis

Right atrial (RA) and left atrial (LA) tissue homogenates were probed with the following antibodies: gp91phox (BD Transduction); total and phosphorylated RyR2 at serine-2808 and serine-2814 (ThermoFisher Scientific); α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA; Cell Signalling); vimentin (Exbio); HRP-conjugated GAPDH (Sigma Aldrich); and total CaMKII (Cell Signalling) and an antiserum to oxidized CaMKII that was kindly provided by Dr ME Anderson, Johns Hopkins University, USA. Detection of primary antibodies was performed using peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit or anti-mouse antibodies (both Promega, USA). GAPDH was used as a loading control except for phosphorylated protein levels which were normalized by the respective total protein levels. All western blots were run under reducing conditions apart from those to detect oxidized CaMKII, which was performed under non-reducing conditions to preserve the redox modification. For the detection of RA and LA NOX2, atrial tissues were pooled from two different animals prior to homogenization.

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.
