Immunofluorescence staining was carried out as our previous research (Wu et al., 2016 (link)). In brief, cardiac tissue sections were processed for deparaffinization, rehydration, and antigen retrieval with sodium citrate. Then, primary HMGB1 (ab79823, Abcam) antibody was applied at 4°C overnight after blocking with 10% sheep serum; goat anti−rabbit (LI−COR) was used as the secondary antibody incubated for 60 min at 37°C. The cell coverslips were fixed with 4% formaldehyde and permeabilized in 0.2% Triton X-100, then blocking with 10% sheep serum. Antibody against α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA; ab5694, Abcam), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA; sc-7907, Santa Cruz, CA, United States), or HMGB1 (ab79823, Abcam) were incubated at 4°C overnight; the remaining steps were the same as tissue staining.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The extraction of total proteins for cells was carried out with RIPA, and concentrated protein supernatants were measured using a Pierce BCA protein assay kit. Proteins were separated via 4–15% Mini-PROTEAN® TGX Stain-Free Precast Gel (Bio-Rad, Marnes-la-Coquette, France). The transfer was performed on a nitrocellulose membrane (Bio-Rad) and saturated for over 90 min with 5% milk in tris-buffered saline (TBS) 1X at room temperature. Then, the membrane was incubated overnight at 4 °C with the first antibody against NFAT5 (1:600, sc-398171, Santacruz) or HMGB1 (1:10,000, ab79823, Abcam) diluted in 5% milk in TBS 1X 0.1% tween-20. The membrane was washed with TBS 1X 0.1% tween-20 and then incubated for 90 min at RT with peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody anti-mouse or anti-rabbit, respectively (1/10,000). After washing, the revelation was completed using an ECL clarity kit (Clarity Western ECL Substrate, BIO-RAD, Marnes-la-Coquette, France) for Western blot and integrated on the ChemiDoc imaging system (Bio-Rad). The relative intensities of the protein bands were analyzed using Image Lab 6.1 software (BIO-RAD, Marnes-la-Coquette, France). Total protein normalization (Bio-Rad), a method allowing normalization using the total protein loaded, was used to normalize the Western blot results.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of HMGB1

The paraffin-embedded tissues were cleansed of paraffin and rehydrated using graded alcohols. Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked with 3% H2O2 at 10 minutes and was washed using PBS. Antigen retrieval was performed by boiling the slides in 10 mM citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 5 minutes. Anti-high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) (ab79823; Abcam) was used as the primary antibody and incubated at 4°C overnight. Negative controls were prepared using PBS in place of the primary antibodies. After that, the slides were incubated with an anti-rabbit horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody at room temperature for 2 hours. Sections were developed with 3, 3′-diaminobenzidine solution (DAKO, Brüsseler, Germany) at room temperature for 1 minute. The slides were finally observed under an optical microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) at a magnification of × 400.

The integrated optical density of the protein bands was determined using Image Lab 4.0 image acquisition and analysis system software. Simultaneous detection of GAPDH protein bands was used as the internal reference.

Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed on 5-µm sections from 4% paraformaldehyde-xed para n-embedded endometrial tissue samples. The slides were incubated with 5% bovine serum albumin (Amresco, Solon, OH, USA) (25°C, 30 min), and then incubated with anti-HMGB1 (dilution 1:400, ab79823, Abcam) and normal rabbit IgG antibodies overnight at 4°C.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
4-6-week-old female BALB/c mice were purchased from Beijing HFK Bioscience Co. Ltd. The mice were housed in a specific pathogen-free (SPF) environment at Laboratory Animal Care Center of Tongji Hospital, and allowed to recover and were monitored closely for one week before any treatment. Then 4T1 breast cancer cells (1×105) were subcutaneously injected into the right posterior limb. For treatment, mice were randomized into two groups (n=5 per group), vehicle and Dinaciclib, since tumor volumes reaches 50 mm3. Mice were treated 3 times per week with Dinaciclib 30mg/kg administered via i.p injection. The tumor size was monitored every 3 days. Tumor length and width were measured using electronic calipers. The tumor volume was calculated as follows: volume = 0.5 × length × width2. At sacrifice, portions of tumors were stored in liquid nitrogen for follow-up western blot test or were fixed in 4% Polyformaldehyde for routine histopathologic processing. And the following antibodies were used: anti- HMGB1 (1:400; catalog: ab79823; Abcam), anti-CD8 (1:2,000; catalog: ab209775; Abcam), and anti-Granzyme B (1:3,000; catalog: ab255598; Abcam). All animal procedures were performed in accordance with the approved Guide for the Care and Treatment of Laboratory Animals of Tongji Hospital and approved by the Ethics Committees of Tongji Hospital.

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.
