A total protein extraction kit (KeyGen Biotech, Nanjing, China) was used to extract total proteins. The procedures were followed according to the kit manual. Cell protein lysates were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) and transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Merck Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) using a standard wet transfer apparatus. Then, the membranes were blocked in 5% non-fat milk in Tris-buffered saline with 0.05% Tween 20 (TBST) at room temperature for 2 hr, incubated overnight with the primary anti-HSPA12B (1:1,000 dilution, ab116082; Abcam), anti-Bcl2 (1:1,000, ab32124; Abcam), anti-Bax (1:1,000, ab77566; Abcam), anti-cleaved Caspase-3 (1:1,000, ab2302; Abcam), or anti-GAPDH antibody (1:1,000 dilution, AF0006; Beyotime); anti-GAPDH was used as an internal control. The membrane was washed with TBST three times for 5 min per wash. Then, the PVDF membrane was incubated in blocking buffer containing the diluted secondary antibody at room temperature for 2 hr.

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.
