Protein was extracted from punches of the PVN as described and the western blotting analysis was performed as described (Li et al., 2014 (link); Zhang et al., 2015 (link)). The PVN tissues were lysed in a RIPA buffer with protease inhibitor and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail. A modified BCA protein assay was used for protein quantitative. Thirty-microgram amounts of protein were separated by SDS-PAGE on 8 or 10% (wt/vol) gels and transferred on to PVDF membrane (Immobilon-P, Millipore). And then, membranes were blocked with 3% BSA in TBST buffer for 60 min at room temperature and incubated with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The primary antibodies for TLR4 (sc-293072, 1:100 dilution), MyD88 (sc-74532, 1:100 dilution), IL-1β (sc-52012, 1:100 dilution), and β-actin (sc-8432, 1:2000 dilution)were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, and TNF-α (ab6671, 1:100 dilution) was purchased from Abcam.

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.
