Western Blot Analysis of sEV Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The markers (CD63 and Alix) of the isolated sEVs were correspondingly detected by Western blotting as reported previously.62, 63 The sEVs were lysed using the Mammalian Cell Lysis kit (Sigma–Aldrich) and quantified using Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 23227). The samples were preheated at 60°C for 15 min. Proteins were electrophoresed in an SDS‐polyacrylamide gel followed by transferring to PVDF membranes. The membranes were blocked with 5% BSA in TBS‐Tween 20 and were then probed with antibodies specific for CD63 (1:1000, ab216130, Abcam), Alix antibody (1:1000, Proteintech), and calnexin (1:1000, Proteintech, negative biomarker for sEVs) overnight at 4°C. After three washes in TBS‐tween 20, membranes were incubated with the secondary antibody (Thermo Scientific) for 1 h and washed again. For visualization, blots were exposed to SuperSignal West Dura Extended Duration substrate and measured by the FluorChem R system (ProteinSimple).

Protein was isolated from harvested cells using mechanical disruption and the Mammalian Cell Lysis Kit (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) according to the manufacturer’s instruction. The proteins were separated on 1 mm NuPage Novex 10% Bis-Tris gels using the NuPage MOPS SDS Buffer Kit (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) followed by electrotransfer to 0.2 mm nitrocellulose membranes (Pall, Port Washington, WI, USA). Nonspecific binding sites were blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin in PBS for 1 hour at room temperature (RT). Membranes were then incubated with diluted primary antibody (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) at 4°C overnight. Following three washes with PBS containing 0.5% Tween-20, membranes were incubated with diluted secondary antibody (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK) at RT for two hours. The signal was visualized with an enhanced chemiluminescent reagent (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ). For the protein loading control, blots were stripped and stained for GAPDH using an anti-GAPDH antibody (1:2000, AbCam, Cambridge, MA).

Immunoprecipitation was performed as described previously [21 , 22 (link)]. BV2 cells were treated with cocaine (10 μM) for 1 h and then lysed using the Mammalian Cell Lysis kit (Sigma-Aldrich). For each sample, 600 μg of protein was used for immunoprecipitation. Cell lysates were incubated with TLR2 antibody overnight at 4 °C followed by incubation with 30 μl of protein A/G beads (Santa Cruz, 2003) for 1.5 h at 4 °C. The mixture was then centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, and the cell pellets were rinsed twice with the lysis buffer (1.0 % NP-40, 0.5 % sodium deoxycholate, 0.1 % SDS, 150 mM NaCl, 9.1 mM Na2HPO4, 1.7 mM NaH2PO4) containing proteinase and phosphatase inhibitors. Finally, 30 μl of 2 × western blot loading buffer was added and boiled for 5 min. Then, the protein complexes were detected using 4G10 antibody (Millipore, Cat# ab5320). Input protein (without antibody addition) served as a control to demonstrate that equal amount of total protein was used.

The treated/transfected astrocytes and brain tissues from rhesus macaques were washed once with PBS and lysed using the Mammalian Cell Lysis kit (Sigma-Aldrich, MCL1–1KT). Cell lysates were centrifuged at 12000 ×g for 10 min at 4°C, the protein content of the supernatant was quantified by a BCA assay using Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 23227) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Equal amounts of soluble proteins were suspended in 5× Laemmli buffer and electrophoresed in a 10% or 15% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel and transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Millipore, IPVH00010). After blocking of the membrane with 5% nonfat dry milk (in 1× TTBS buffer) for 1 h at room temperature, the membranes were incubated overnight with the primary antibodies at 4°C followed by incubation with secondary antibody the next day for 1 h at room temperature, and the immunoreactive protein signals were identified using Super Signal West Pico (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 34078) or Dura Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 34076). Image J (v1.4.3.67; NIH, Bethesda, MD) software was used for quantification [55 (link)]. Normalization was done with β-actin, an internal control and the fold change was obtained.

Glioblastoma CSCs consisting of U87 CD133+ NSCs and HSCs, were lysed using a Mammalian Cell Lysis kit (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck Millipore) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, cells were collected transferred to a conical test tube and centrifuged at 25°C for 5 min at 420 × g. The supernatant was decanted and the cells were washed twice by resuspending the cell pellets in PBS and centrifuging at 420 × g for 5 min at 25°C. After decanting the supernatant, cells were resuspended in cell lysis buffer (106-107 cells/ml) and incubated for 15 min on an orbital shaker. The cells were subsequently centrifuged at 12,000 × g for 10 min at 25°C to pellet the cellular debris. The protein-containing supernatant was removed and transferred to a fresh test tube. Samples that were used immediately were incubated on ice, while the remaining samples were stored at −20°C.

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.
