Subcellular Fractionation and Redox Response

Subcellular fractionation technique was performed as we’ve previously described101 (link). Two million (2.0 × 106) serum-containing and serum-deprived PC3 and DU145 cells were stimulated with 250 μM H2O2 or TNFα (0.1 ng/mL) for 30 min. Alternatively, select samples were pre-treated with 5 mM NAC for 1 h prior to 250 μM H2O2 for 1 h. Cells were harvested for subcellular fractionation according to the manufacture’s protocol (NE-PER Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Extraction Kit, ThermoFisher). Briefly, cells were lysed in a series of buffers, centrifuged to obtain a non-nuclear fraction and an intact nuclear pellet, and further lysed to isolate the nuclear fraction. Forty micrograms (40 μg) of total cell lysate were resolved by SDS-PAGE to detect RelA/p65 (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology). Topoisomerase I (1:1,000, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and β-actin (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology) were used as loading controls.

After transfer of the proteins from polyacrylamide gels onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes and blocking, membranes were incubated with antibodies directed against myc-tag (1:500), phospho-eNOS (S1177, 1:500) and Caspase-3 (1:3000 for full-length protein; 1:250 for the cleaved protein), all from Cell Signaling Technology, Frankfurt, Germany), GAPDH (1:70,000), eNOS (1:500) both from Abcam, Cambridge, UK, Topoisomerase I (1:200, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany), Tubulin (1:10,000; Sigma-Aldrich, Deisenhofen, Germany). Antibodies were incubated overnight at 4 °C. On the following day, membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies coupled to horseradish peroxidase, and detection was performed using ECL substrate (GE Healthcare, Solingen, Germany) and X-ray films.

Chromatin Modification Analysis by Western Blot

Cells were lysed in Triton X buffer containing Tris-HCl (100 mM), NaCl (750 mM), NaPPi (50 mM), NaF (100 mM) Triton X-100 (10%), phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF, 1 mM), orthovanadate (OV, 2 mM), okadaic acid (OA, 10 nM) and protease inhibitor mix (PIM). The lysate was centrifuged (17,000 g, 10 min, 4 °C) and the supernatant was collected. Protein concentration was determined using Bradford assay. Samples were boiled in LämmLi buffer under reducing conditions, separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane by Western blotting. Fluorescence-based detection of secondary antibodies was performed using the Odyssey CLx imaging system (Licor, Bad Homburg, Germany). Primary antibodies: eNOS (#334600, Invitrogen), H3K27ac (#pAb-174-050, Diagenode), H3K27me2 (#C15410046-50, Diagenode) H3K27m3, H1 (#05–457, Millipore), H3 (#C15200011, Diagenode), mJmjD3 (#AP1022b, Abgent), hJmjD3 (#AP1022a, Abgent), UTX (#33510, Cell Signaling), EZH2 (#3147, Cell Signaling), topoisomerase I (#sc-5342, Santa Cruz) and β-actin (#A1978, Sigma-Aldrich). Fluorescence-labelled secondary antibodies: IRDye® RD680 Donkey anti-Mouse, RD680 Donkey anti-Rabbit, CW800 Donkey anti-Mouse, CW800 Donkey anti-Rabbit, RD680 Donkey anti-Goat (#926–68072, #926–68073, #926–32212, #926–32213, #926–68074 Licor).

Fractionation and Immunoblotting of Cellular Compartments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For separation of nucleus and cytosol, the cells were lysed in buffer A (10 nM HEPES pH 7.9, 10 nM KCL, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM EGTA, 1% Nonidet, 10 mM DTT, protein-inhibitor mix (PIM), 40 µg/mL phenylmethylsulfonylfluorid (PMSF). Cells were centrifuged to gain the cytosol containing supernatant. The pellet was cooked in sample buffer to gain the nuclear fraction. Bradford assay was used to determine the protein amount in the cytosolic fraction [19 (link)]. Samples were cooked in sample buffer and were transferred on SDS-PAGE followed by Western Blotting. Identical sample volumes from nuclear and cytosolic fractions were loaded. Analysis was performed with an infrared-based detection system using fluorescent-dye-conjugated secondary antibodies from LI-COR biosciences, Bad Homburg, Germany.
Primary antibodies used are: D7L7L from Cell signaling, Danvers, MA, USA for Cre-recombinase, A1978 from Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA for β-actin and sc-5342 from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA for Topoisomerase I.

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.
