After treatment with Aspergillus protease and washing with PBS, BEAS2B cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (LPS Solution, Daejeon, Korea). The cell lysates (25 μg/lane) were separated by electrophoresis and transferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The membranes were blocked with blocking solution for 50 min at 23°C. After blocking, the membranes were incubated with rabbit anti-JNK, anti-phospho- (p-) JNK, anti-ERK1/2, anti-p-ERK1/2, anti-c-FOS, anti-c-JUN, anti-UCP-2, and anti-β-actin antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology; 1 : 1000 dilution) with gentle agitation overnight at 4°C. After incubation with the primary antibodies, the membranes were washed three times with TBST and incubated with biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology) for 2 h at room temperature. The membranes were washed three times with the TBST, developed using Clarity Western ECL Blotting Substrate (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA), and visualized using an ImageQuant LAS 4000 mini (GE Healthcare Life Science, Chicago, IL).

HRECs were lysed in cell lysis buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) containing 1-mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and a protease/phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA). Total protein concentrations were measured using a bicinchoninic acid assay (Beyotime Biotechnology). Protein samples (30–50 µg) were used for western blot using 4% to 20% sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gels and transferred to a 0.22-µm polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Roche). After being blocked in nonfat milk, the membranes were incubated in the primary antibody at 4°C overnight and in the secondary antibody (The Jackson Laboratory, West Grove, PA, USA) at room temperature for 1 hour. The ECL Plus HRP substrate (EMD Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA) and Amersham Imager 600 (General Electric, Boston, MA, USA) were used to visualize the immunoreactive bands. The primary antibodies were as follows: anti-UCP2 (#89326), anti-SIRT3 (#2627), anti-SOD2 (#13141), anti-P21 (#2947), and anti-Actin (#5125), all of which were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danver, MA, USA), and Anti-beta Tubulin antibody (#ab6046), which was purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, UK).

Western blot was performed as previously described. The following primary antibodies were used: anti-LC3 (M186-3, MBL International, Woburn, MA, US), anti-UCP2 (89326, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), anti-β-ACTIN (A5316, Sigma Aldrich), anti-ATG7 (8558, Cell Signaling), anti-PARKIN (4211, Cell Signaling), anti-VINCULIN (v4139, Sigma Aldrich). Secondary antibodies were anti-rabbit (AP132P, Millipore, Burlington, MA, US) and anti-mouse (401215, Millipore,). Proteins were detected by ECL Prime (Amersham Biosciences, CA) and acquired by a Chemidoc (Image Lab 6.0.1, Biorad, Milan, Italy). The intensity of bands was quantified by using Image J software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD).

HepG2 cells were lysed using Cellytic MT (Sigma-Aldrich, China) and the supernatant was collected after centrifugation at 12,000 rpm. The supernatant was boiled in loading buffer (Solarbio, China) at 95 °C for 5 min. Samples were examined in SDS-PAGE. After blotting on PVDF membranes (Millipore, China), the non-specific antigen was blocked with 5% non-fat milk powder and then primary antibody anti-UCP2 (89326S, Cell Signaling Technology, America) was added overnight at 4 °C. The protein was detected using a fluorescent secondary antibody and visualized using Odyssey® system (LI-COR, USA).

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.
