The total protein contents of NLP siM and OFA siM transfected groups were extracted after 48, 72 and 96 hr. Protein extraction for control groups was carried out after 48 hr. To prepare cell lysate, the cell culture plate was placed on ice, cells were washed with 1 x PBS and mixed with P38 buffer (Tris-HCl (62.5 mM), SDS (2% W/V), glycerol (10% W/V), DTT (50 mM) in protease inhibitor pretreated nuclease-free water (half of the complete protease inhibitor cocktail tablet (Roche) dissolved in 25 ml of double distilled water). The protein concentration was determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Then cellular levels of MDR1/P-gp, in different experimental groups were analysed by western blotting as Stege et al described (15 (link)). MDR1/P-gp proteins were detected using a mouse monoclonal antibody (mAbs) C219 (Alexis, San Diego, CA, USA). We used mouse mAb against actin (mAb 1501 R; Chemicon, Temecula, CA) as a loading control and peroxidase-conjugated goat anti- mouse IgG (A-1949; Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) as a secondary antibody. Finally, protein bands were analyzed using UVtec software (UK). Experiments performed in triplicate.

The expression of Collagen 1 a1 (Col1a1), Vimentin and alpha smooth muscle Actin α-SMA was evaluated by western blot. Cells were lysed with lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.4], 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1% NP-40, protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma Aldrich) and phosphatase inhibitor (Roche)), gently vortexed for 20 min at 4 °C and centrifuged for 15 min at 13,200 rpm at 4 °C. Supernatants were quantified by Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Twenty micrograms of proteins from cell extracts were loaded and separated in 8% SDS-PAGE. After electrophoresis, the gels were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Millipore), therefore blocked (5% no fat milk in 0.1% Tween 20 TBS) and incubated with the primary Ab (1:1000 in TBST + 2% BSA; overnight at 4 °C or 2 h at room temperature): anti-α-SMA [E184] (ab32575, Abcam), anti-Vimentin (ab24525, Abcam), anti-Col1a1 (ab34710, Abcam) and anti-β-Actin (MAB1501R, Chemicon).

Mice were euthanized by cervical dislocation. The cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and cerebellum were extracted. Brain sections were homogenized and lysed in 2× Laemmli buffer, with 1% protease inhibitor, by sonicating 3 times for 3 seconds. Protein concentration was determined using the BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 23225). Twenty micrograms of proteins were separated on a precast 4–12% Criterion XT Bis-Tris gel (Bio-Rad) and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane using TurboBlot (Bio-Rad). The following antibodies were used: anti-UBE3A (anti-E6AP, MilliporeSigma, catalog E8655, 1:1000) and anti-actin (Chemicon, MAB1501R, 1:20,000). The next day, the membranes were probed with secondary goat anti-mouse antibody (LI-COR Biosciences, IRDye 800CW, 926-32210, 1:15,000). The membranes were scanned using Odyssey CLx (LI-COR Biosciences) and quantified using the Odyssey 3.0 software.

Mice were anaesthetized using isoflurane and sacrificed by decapitation. Brain samples were taken out quickly and stored in liquid nitrogen. Upon protein determination lysates were first prepared and brain samples were homogenized in lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl 6.8, 2.5% SDS, 2 mM EDTA). Protein concentration in the samples was determined and then lysate concentrations were adjusted to 1 mg/ml. Western blots were probed with primary antibodies against either CAMK2A (6G9, 1:40.000, Abcam), CAMK2B (CB-β1, 1:10.000, Invitrogen), Actin (MAB1501R, 1:20.000, Chemicon) or Ph-T286/T287 (autophosphorylated α CAMK2A and CAMK2B antibody; #06–881; 1:5000; Upstate Cell Signaling Solutions) and secondary antibodies (goat anti-mouse and/or goat anti-rabbit, both 1:3000, AffiniPure #115-007-003 and #111-007-003).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Postnatal hippocampal neurons were cultured from P0 rat pups as described (Pathak et al., 2015 (link)). Expression of PINK1-V5 and its localization to mitochondria were tested by infecting neurons at DIV4 with AAV-PINK1-V5 (WT or G309D). At DIV7, neurons were treated overnight with 10 µM carbonyl cyanide-4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP; Sigma), fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and immunostained and imaged for the mitochondrial marker Tom20 (rabbit, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, SC-11415, 1:1000) and the V5 epitope (mouse, Life Technologies, R960-25, 1:1000) as described (Pathak et al., 2015 (link)). Expression of full-length PINK1-WT/G309D-V5 in cell lysates was determined by infecting neurons at DIV5 with PINK1-WT-V5 or PINK1-G309D-V5 viruses. At DIV9, neurons were treated overnight with 10 µM FCCP (Sigma), harvested in SDS-PAGE loading buffer, and immunoblotted as described (Orr et al., 2015 (link)) for PINK1 (rabbit, Novus Biologicals, BC100–494, 1:500) and actin (mouse, EMD Millipore, MAB1501R, 1:1000).

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.
