Sample protein concentrations were measured using the PierceTM BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), and an equal amount of protein (10 µg) of each sample was separated by SDS-PAGE by using NuPAGE Sample Reducing Agent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) on precast NuPAGE 4–12% Bis-Tris Protein Gels (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Thereafter the proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane and probed using anti-Calnexin (ab22595, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-Alix (ab117600, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) or Syntenin-1 (TA504796, OriGene, Rockville, MD, USA) antibodies as per manufacturer’s instructions. The secondary antibodies used were goat anti-mouse IRDye 800 CW (926-32210, LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA) or donkey anti-rabbit IRDye 800 CW (926-32213, LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA). Precision Plus Protein Dual Color Standards ladder was utilized to determine the size of protein bands (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). The final blots were imaged using the LI-COR Odyssey CLx infrared imaging system (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA).

Colonoids were lysed using RIPA buffer (Alfa Aesar J62524) and protein was quantified using the Bio-Rad DC Protein Assay (Bio-Rad 5000116). Lysed protein samples were loaded onto a NuPAGE 4%−12% Bis-Tris protein gel and run at 100V for two and a half hours. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane using the Trans-Blot Turbo PVDF Transfer Kit (Bio-Rad 1704275) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Membranes were probed using the primary antibodies (listed below) and visualized using Alexa Fluor IgG secondary antibodies (Rabbit Invitrogen A11012, Mouse Invitrogen A11005; 1:10,000) on a Syngene G:BOX. Protein levels were quantified using ImageJ software and normalized to levels of β-actin (Sigma-Aldrich A5441; 1:10 000). Bio-Rad Precision Plus Protein Dual Color Standards ladder was used for all experiments (Bio-Rad 1610374; 5 μL/lane). Primary antibodies used for this project were: E-cadherin (Cell Signaling Technology 14472; 1:1000), TJP1/ZO-1 (Novus Biologicals NBP1-85046; 1:1000), caspase-3 (Cell Signaling Technology 9662; 1:1000), claudin-3 (Abcam ab15102; 1:1000), occludin (Novus Biologicals NBP1-87402; 1:1000), and BFT (Sears Lab; 1:1000).

EV sample total protein concentrations were determined by BCA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Loughborough, UK), and 10 µg of protein separated by SDS-PAGE using NuPAGE Sample Reducing Agent and precast NuPAGE 4–12% Bis-Tris Protein Gels (both Thermo Fisher Scientific). Precision Plus Protein Dual Color Standards ladder was utilized to determine the size of protein bands (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Perth, UK). Proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane and probed with antibodies as appropriate (details of primary and secondary antibodies are provided in Table S2). Chemiluminescence was measured using the Odyssey Fc Imaging System (LI-COR Biosciences, Cambridge, USA).

The protein concentrations of the samples were determined using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit from Thermo Fisher Scientific. Standard SDS-PAGE was performed using both the sarkosyl-soluble and sarkosyl-insoluble fractions derived from cell and AD brain extractions. The samples were loadd on a 4–20% Mini-PROTEAN® TGX Precast Protein Gel from Bio-Rad. Precision Plus Protein Dual Color Standards ladder from Bio-Rad was used as a reference for molecular weights. For the western blot staining, the MC1 antibody hybridoma conditioned media was employed, which was kindly provided by the lab of Peter Davies. The immunoblots were imaged using a Licor Gel Imaging Station and subsequently analyzed with Fiji imaging software.

Biomass concentrations in frozen cell pellets were equalized by adding appropriate volumes of Lämmli buffer (0.0625 M Tris–HCl (VWR) pH = 6.8, 2% SDS (Merck), 10% glycerol (Biosolve Chimie SARL,), 0.1 M dithiothreitol (Sigma-Aldrich) and 0.001% bromophenol blue (Fisher Scientific)). Samples were kept on ice, heated for 5 min at 99 °C and centrifuged at 20,000 rcf for 5 min before loading. SDS-PAGES were hand-casted (4% stacking gel, 12% separating gel). Proteins were separated by electrophoresis and transferred to a 0.2 µm nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad). sfTq2ox was detected with primary antibody αGFP (1:2000, Fisher Scientific), FtsZ with a polyclonal antibody generated in rabbit against E. coli FtsZ35 (link). Both rabbit-antibodies were subsequently detected with the secondary Peroxidase AffiniPure Donkey Anti-Rabbit IgG (H + L) (Jackson ImmunoResearch). mNG was detected with anti-mNG (Chromotek) and secondary goat anti-mouse IgG (H + L) HRP (Invitrogen). The conjugated horse radish peroxidase (HRP) of the secondary antibody was subsequently visualised with the Pierce™ ECL Western blotting substrate (Thermo Scientific) in a Licor Odyssey machine (700 nm channel for the Precision Plus Protein Dual Color Standards ladder (Bio-Rad), chemiluminescence channel for HRP activity).

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.
