Western Blot Analysis of Epo and EpoR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Estimation of the Epo and EpoR protein expression was performed by western blot analysis. Total lysis of the cells and spinal cords was conducted using the Radio-Immunoprecipitation Assay buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), and protein concentrations were determined using the bicinchoninic acid protein assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Equal amounts (20 µg) of the proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE gel, which were subsequently electroblotted onto nitrocellulose membranes. The membranes were blocked with 5% skim milk and were probed overnight at 4°C with the primary antibodies anti-Epo (1:800; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.) and anti-EpoR (1:800; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.). The membrane was then incubated with secondary horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibody (1:2,000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.) at room temperature for 2 h. The membranes were then prepared using an electrochemiluminescence western blotting kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The optical density value of each band was quantified using ImageJ and was normalized to the corresponding β-actin level. Values were expressed as the fold change relative to the control value.

Twenty-four micrograms of protein was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) and subsequently blotted onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane. The transferred membranes were blocked in 4% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and then incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Anti-EPO and Anti-EPOR were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, and the anti-neuron-specific enolase (anti-NSE) antibody was purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA). Following incubation with the primary antibody, the membranes were rinsed and incubated with the HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit secondary antibody and developed using a standard enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) system, and the signal was captured by an Amersham Imager 600 (GE Healthcare, Madison, WI, USA). All of the procedures were performed in triplicate.

Spleens were isolated and snap-frozen from all groups at different time points of radiation and were stored at −80°C. Spleens were homogenized and lysed in ice cold RIPA buffer (Sc24948A Santa Cruz Biotechnology) in the presence of protease inhibitors. The homogenates were centrifuged at 12000 g for 10 min at 4°C, and the total protein concentrations were determined using a BCA protein assay. After adjusting the concentrations, Laemmli sample buffer was added to 1X final concentration. Samples were denatured by boiling at 100°C for 5 minutes and were run on 4-12% SDS-PAGE gels at 80 V, then transferred to PVDF membranes by semi-dry transfer. Membranes were blocked with 4% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and immunoblots were developed using anti-EPO (Sc7956, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, diluted 1:1000) and HIF-2 alpha (NB100-122 Novus Biologicals, diluted 1:500). Beta-actin (Sc47778, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) was used as an internal control. The intensities of specific bands corresponding to the proteins of interest were measured by using ImageJ software.

For EPO, EpoR, JAK2, and STAT3 immunostaining, slices (n = 6 for each group) were pretreated with Tris-Na-Blocking (TNB) blocking buffer (PerkinElmer, USA) containing 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.15 M NaCl, and 0.5% blocking reagent before incubation with a primary antibody. Free-floating sections were immunolabeled with the following rabbit polyclonal antibodies from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (USA) overnight at 4°C: anti-EPO (Epo; 1 : 50); anti-EPOR (1 : 50); anti-JAK2 (1 : 100); and anti-STAT3 (1 : 100).

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.
