The proteins were extracted from cells using radio-immunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). The total protein concentrations were detected with bicinchoninic acid protein assay kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). The same amount of proteins (20 µg) was packed into each electrophoresis tank, then separated by 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA). Subsequently, the membranes were blocked with 10% skim milk at approximately 25°C. Then, the membranes were washed and incubated with the primary antibodies at 4°C for about 24 hour. Primary antibodies including rabbit anti-CHOP (ab194533, 1:400, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), rabbit anti-Grp78 (ab21685, 1: 500, Abcam), rabbit anti-eIF2α (ab169528, 1: 400, Abcam), rabbit anti-cleaved caspase-3 (ab32042, 1: 400, Abcam), rabbit anti- Janus kinase (JAK)2 (ab108596, 1: 300, Abcam), and rabbit anti-STAT3 (ab68153, 1: 500, Abcam) were used for incubated with goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab205718, 1:1000, Abcam) for 1 hour at room temperature. Finally, they were put into an enhanced chemiluminescence system (Bestbio, Shanghai, China) to develop the signals and scan the protein bands with Image J software. GAPDH was used as an endogenous control.

Briefly, the bone tissue was transferred into a mortar filled with liquid nitrogen and ground into powder. Then the powdered bone tissue was collected into a 1.5 mL EP tube and added with protein lysate, which was lysed at 0°C for 30 min. Then the samples were centrifuged at 4°C for 15 min at 12,000 rpm. The supernatant containing total protein was extracted and stored at −80°C. The total protein was dissolved with trypsin and quantified using a BCA Kit (Beyotime, Haimen, China). The protein samples were then applied to a 10% polyacrylamide gel for separation, and proteins were subsequently subjected onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Thermo Fisher, CA, USA), followed by incubation with primary antibodies purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA) including anti-human BMP2 (ab14933, 1:1000), anti-human ATF4 (ab184909, 1:5000), anti-human TMEM119 (ab210405, 1:1000), anti-rat BMP2 (ab214821, 1:1000), anti-rat ATF4 (ab186284, 1:500), anti-rat EIF2AK3 (ab229912, 1:1000), anti-rat EIF2A (ab169528, 1:1000) and anti-β-actin (ab8226, 1:2000) antibodies.

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.
