Protein was extracted from the cultured cells with RIPA lysis buffer (1% NP40, 0.1% Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 100 μg/ml phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, in PBS) on ice. Protein concentration was determined using a BCA protein assay kit (Bio-rad, China), and whole lysates mixed with 4×SDS loading buffer (Bio-rad, China) were denatured by 5 minutes’ incubation at 100°C for 5 min. Afterwards, proteins were separated on SDS-polyacrylamide gels, and then transferred to a PVDF membrane. The membrane blots were first probed with a primary antibody. After incubation with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated second antibody, protein was visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescent system. Primary antibodies were rabbit anti-phosphorylated p38 (p-p38), anti-p38, anti-phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2), anti-ERK1/2, anti-phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) and anti-AKT (all purchased from Cell Signaling, San Jose, CA, USA). Secondary antibody is HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit (Jackson ImmunoResearch Labs, West Grove, PA, USA).

Equivalent amounts of protein from whole-cell lysates or EVs were loaded into each lane of SDS-polyacrylamide gel and electrophoretically transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Hybond-P; GE Health Care, Buckinghamshire, UK). Membranes were incubated in Blocking One or Blocking One-P (Nacalai Tesque, Inc., Kyoto, Japan) for 30 min before being incubated in the following primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C: anti-CD9 (Chemicon International Inc., Temecula, CA, USA), anti-CD63 (BD Biosciences), anti-CD81 (BioLegend), anti-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3; Cell Signaling Technology), anti-phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3; Cell Signaling Technology), anti-Akt (Akt; Cell Signaling Technology), anti-phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt; Cell Signaling Technology), and anti-β-actin antibody (Sigma-Aldrich). The membranes were subsequently incubated with secondary antibodies for 60 min at room temperature. Peroxidase activity of secondary antibodies was detected using ECL prime Western Blotting Detection Reagent (GE Healthcare UK Ltd.) and visualized using an Amersham Imager 600 (GE Healthcare UK Ltd.) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

Thirty-five, 8- to 10 week-old female C57BL/6 mice (18 to 20 g, purchased from Hyochang Science, Daegu, Korea) were used for this study. These mice were kept in the facility with a standard environment throughout the study as follows: room temperature 25 ± 1℃, relative humidity 60 ± 10%, and alternating 12-hour light/dark cycles (8 a.m. to 8 p.m.). All experimental procedures were performed in accordance with the ARVO Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research. Based on the clinical evaluations (described below), the mice were then randomly divided into seven groups (5 mice for each group): normal saline-treated control group, BAC-treated group and five anti-glaucomatic agent-treated groups.
Anti-TNF-α, anti-IL-6 and anti-HLA DR were purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA). Anti-phosphorylated c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (pJNK) and anti-phosphorylated-Akt (pAkt) were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Allschwil, Switzerland). 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and Prolong Gold were purchased from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA, USA).

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.
