The samples were pulverized using a Bessman Tissue Pulverizer kit, and half of pulverized tissue was homogenized in 1000 μL/150 mg (cortex) or 150 μL (hippocampus) Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (TPER; Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA) containing protease (Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA) and phosphatase inhibitors (Sigma‐Aldrich) before centrifugation at 100,000 × g for 1 h at 4°C to generate TPER‐soluble fractions. For formic‐acid fractions, pellets from the TPER‐soluble fraction were homogenized in 500 μL (cortex) or 75 μL (hippocampus) 70% formic acid followed by centrifugation at 100,000 × g for 1 h at 4°C. Protein concentration was calculated via Bradford Protein Assay. Human Aβ in soluble and insoluble fractions was quantified using the V‐PLEX Aβ Peptide Panel 1 (6E10) (K15200G‐1; Meso Scale Discovery, Rockville, MD, USA) and the neurofilament light chain (NfL) in plasma and cortex was quantified using the R‐Plex Human Neurofilament L Assay (K1517XR‐2; Meso Scale Discovery), all according to the manufacturer's instructions.

To isolate protein for the ELISA, flash-frozen brain hemispheres were microdissected into cortical, hippocampal, and thalamic regions and grounded to a powder. Hippocampal tissue was then homogenized in Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (TPER (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY)) with protease and phosphatase inhibitors present. Samples were centrifuged at 100,000 g for 1 h at 4 °C to generate TPER-soluble fractions. To generate formic acid fractions, protein pellets from the TPER-soluble fraction were then homogenized in 70% formic acid and centrifuged at 100,000 g for 1 h at 4 °C, the formic acid fraction is then neutralized.

To isolate protein for the Elisa, flash-frozen brain hemispheres were microdissected into cortical, hippocampal, and thalamic regions and grounded to a powder. Tissue was then homogenized in Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (TPER (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY)) with protease and phosphatase inhibitors present. Samples were then centrifuged at 100,000 g for 1 hour at 4 °C to generate TPER-soluble fractions. To generate formic acid fractions, protein pellets from the TPER-soluble fraction were then homogenized in 70% formic acid and centrifuged at 100,000 g for 1 hour at 4 °C, the formic acid fraction is then neutralized. Isolated protein samples were transferred to a blocked MSD Mouse (4G8) Aβ triplex ELISA plate (Aβ1–38, Aβ1–40, Aβ1–42) and incubated for two hours at room temperature with an orbital shaker. The plate was then washed, and measurements were obtained using a SECTOR Imager 2400, per the manufacturer’s instructions (Meso Scale Discovery, Gaithersburg, MD).

Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to extract protein from crushed skin samples. For 20 min, the proteins were centrifuged at 12,000× g. The supernatant was then collected, and the protein contents were determined using the Erba total protein assay kit. Commercially available Invitrogen/Thermo Fisher Scientific, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (sandwich ELISA) kits (Thermo Fisher Scientific India Pvt. Ltd., Powai, India) were used for IL-22 (IL-22 Mouse ABTS ELISA Development Kit), IL-6 (IL-6 Mouse ELISA Kit), IL-17 (IL-17A Mouse ELISA Development Kit ABTS), TNF-α (TNF alpha Mouse ELISA Kit, Elabscience) IL-1β (IL-1β Mouse ELISA Development Kit ABTS) and MCP-1/CCL2 (mouse MCP-1 ELISA kit, FineTest). All tests were performed as per the manufacturer’s instructions manual [15 (link)].

Frozen rat esophagus tissue was homogenized in Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA, USA) using TissueLyser II (Qiagen) at 30 Hz for 5 min. Extracted protein was then quantified using the DC Protein Assay (Bio-Rad). Western blot analysis was performed as previously described [123 (link)]. Images were captured using the Bio-Rad ChemiDoc Imaging System and quantified by means of chemiluminescent immunodetection using Bio-Rad Image Lab Software version 6.1.0 with expression levels normalized to the loading control GAPDH. Immunoblotting was performed using commercially available antibodies from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA) and Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA): ABST (ab203205, 1:500), ATF-4 (CST #11815, 1:1000), CD44 (ab189524, 1:500), GAPDH (CST #2118, 1:25,000), HSP60 (CST #12165, 1:5000), IRE1α (CST #3294, 1:1000), and phospho-AMPK (CST #2535, 1:1000). Patient EAC samples with matched normal and BE tissues were collected at the University Hospital at the University of Michigan. Informed consent was obtained from patients prior to sample collection.

Quantification of Sp1, Sp3, and SOD2 in HIV-Infected Mouse Lungs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For detection of Sp1, Sp3 and SOD2 in the lungs of HIV infected NSG-BLT mice, we extracted protein from lung tissue homogenates using Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent (Thermo Fisher) supplemented with 1 mM DTT and 1X Protease/Phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (HALT, Thermo Fisher). For immunoblot analysis, we resolved lung proteins by Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis, transferred to Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF, BioRad) and detected with antibodies from commercial sources (Supplemental Materials Table 3). We used chemiluminescence with Supersignal West Femto Maximum Sensitivity substrate (Thermo Fisher) to detect the proteins on a Kodak Image Station 440 CF and Kodak 1D imaging software to quantify the signals. Background was subtracted from the densitometric net intensity values of the target protein and the loading control (β-actin), which was used to normalize the signal of the target protein.

A section of the left lobe of the liver (approximately 1.1 g), half of the spleen, one kidney, and one lung were collected and placed in 600 μL of the tissue-protein extraction reagent (Thermo Fisher) immediately after removal from the rat and kept on ice. Organs were homogenized using ceramic beads (Mobio) in a TissueLyser (QIAGEN). Tissue homogenates were incubated on ice for 30 min and then centrifuged to remove tissue debris. Total protein in the lysate was determined by the bicinchoninic acid assay kit (Thermo Fisher) according to the manufacturer's directions using bovine serum albumin as the standard. HBP concentrations in rat organ lysates were normalized to total protein levels.

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.
