After adding 200 μL of the lysate to the 6-well plate, it was allowed to stand for 20 minutes on ice, and the liquid was collected and centrifuged (13,000 rpm, 15 min); then, the supernatant was collected. The concentration of the protein was determined by the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) (Camilo Biological, Nanjing, China) method and quantified. The protein was separated using a 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel, then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) for 2 hours at 4°C. 5% skim milk was prepared with Tris-buffered saline with Tween-20 (TBST) to block the specific antigen for 2 hours. After washing with TBST for 1 minute, PVDF membranes were incubated with a specific primary antibody (SOD1, Abcam, Rabbit; 1 : 3000; SOD2, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 3000; GPX1, US 1 : 1000, CST; GPX3, US 1 : 1000, CST; Bcl-2, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 2000; Bax, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 500; Sirt1, Bioworld, mouse, 1 : 500, China; P53, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 2000; ROCK1, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 500; ROCK2, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 1000; MYPT-1, Abcam, Rabbit, 1 : 1000; GAPDH US 1 : 1000 CST) at 4°C overnight. The next day, TBST was washed for 30 minutes. Specific proteins were detected by secondary antibodies and observed by the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) system.

After treatments, cells were lysed and Western blot was conducted as previously described55 (link). Proteins were visualized using primary antibodies recognizing HIF1α (BD Biosciences, #610959, San Jose, CA), HIF2α (Novus Biological, #NB100–122, Littleton, CO), α-tubulin (Fitzgerald, #10R-842, North Acton, MA), MYPT1-P Thr696 (EMD Millipore, #ABS45, Temecula, CA), MYPT1, (Abcam, #ab32393, Cambridge, MA), Cleaved Caspase 3, VHL (Cell Signaling, #9661, #2738, Danvers, MA), ROCK1, ROCK2 (Thermo Scientific, #PA5–22262, #PA5–21131, Grand Island, NY); and Horseradish peroxidase conjugated Goat anti-Rabbit IgG and Goat anti-Mouse IgG secondary antibodies (Thermo Scientific, #31460, #31430). Blots were imaged using a Bio Rad ChemiDoc XRS+ (BioRad, Hercules, CA).

ROCK1 Phosphorylation of MYPT1 Substrate

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ROCK1 phosphorylates the myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 (MYPT1)27 (link), known as the myosin-binding subunit (MBS) of myosin light-chain phosphatase, a Thr853. Myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 (p-MYPT1) reflects the Rho-kinase activity28 (link) as a substrate protein. In brief, cell lysates and kidney cortical tissue extracts were analyzed using western blot analysis and rabbit polyclonal antibodies against p-MYPT1 (Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, USA) and MYPT1 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). The ratio of p-MYPT1 and MYPT1 exhibited ROCK1 activity.

Western Blotting for Protein Expression

Western blotting was performed as previously described (29 (link)). Total protein was extracted in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) at a ratio of 100:1. The protein concentration was measured by a BCA assay kit (Biosharp, AnHui, China), and the protein was loaded onto a 5 × sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) gel; a loading buffer (Biosharp, Anhui, China) at a volumetric ratio of 5:1 was used.
After denaturation and SDS–PAGE electrophoresis, the proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes, which were blocked with 5% non-fat dried milk (Sigma, Shanghai, China) and incubated with primary antibodies including anti-ROCK1, anti-RhoA, anti-ROCK2, anti-α-SMA, anti-eNOS, anti-iNOS anti-ET-1, anti-CD31 phospho-MYPT-1, MYPT-1 (Abcam, Shanghai, China), phospho-MLC, MLC (Cell Signaling Technology), and GAPDH (Proteintech, WuHan, China) overnight at −20°C. The PVDF membranes were washed with TBST and then with secondary antibodies. Finally, the membranes were washed again and incubated in chemiluminescent ECL substrate (Fisher). The images were analyzed by ImageJ software, and the results were normalized to those of GAPDH. Analysis was performed using ImageJ software.

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.
