Cells for protein extraction were grown in T75 flasks, washed with cold PBS, scraped, pelleted and frozen in −80 °C, before they were lysed using RIPA lysis buffer. 20 µg protein was loaded into 6–12% SDS-PAGE gels from Bio-Rad Laboratories (Hercules, CA, USA). Blotting was performed by using the Bio Rad Trans-Blot Turbo system and blocking was performed for 2 h in 5% milk in TBS-T (0.1% (v/v) Tween). Primary antibodies used were PDK1 (ab207450, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), and p-PDH (ab92696, Abcam), E-Cadherin (CDH1, 14472S, cell signaling), vimentin (VIM, ab92547, Abcam), LDHA (3582, Cell signaling). The housekeeping protein a-tubulin or vinculin was used as loading control when total protein staining was not available. Primary antibodies were removed, and the membranes were washed three times for 5 min with TBS-T before incubating them with secondary antibody for 1 h under agitation. The membranes were washed three times with TBS-T before they were examined. Complete blots can be found in Supplementary Figure S4.

Protein expression was measured by Western blot in heart tissue using commercially available antibodies (AMP kinase α, 2532S Cell Signaling; β-myosin heavy chain, M8424-.2ML Sigma Aldrich; calsequestrin, PA1-913 Pierce Thermo Scientific; malic enzyme 1, ab97445 Abcam; phospho-AMP kinase α, 2535S Cell Signaling; pyruvate dehydrogenase, ab110330 Abcam; phosphorylated pyruvate dehydrogenase, ab92696 Abcam; pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4, ab63157 Abcam; pyruvate carboxylase, ab128952 Abcam). Protein concentrations in whole cell lysates were determined by BCA protein assay. Gels were loaded with 10–60 μg of protein to measure protein expression levels. Calsequestrin was used as a loading control in all gels. Intensity of the bands of interest was normalized to the intensity of the loading control and the relative increase in expression over baseline (NTG) was reported. When the comparison of more than one gel was required, each gel was normalized to the baseline samples within that gel.

All sections were dealt with blindly using an automated Leica Bond Max platform. The coverslips of the miR-155 stained slides were removed and the tissues tested with antibodies of interest for co-expression analyses. The antibodies used for immunohistochemistry were: MFSD2A (#PA5–21049, Invitrogen); ChAT (#AB144P, Millipore); Neuron-Specific Enolase (BML-NA1501–0100, Enzo Life Sciences); CD31 (ab28364, Abcam), and pyruvate dehydrogenase (ab92696, ABCAM).
Co-expression analyses were done using the Nuance system (CRI) as previously published [16 (link)]. In brief, a given tissue was tested for two different targets using fast red, NBT/BCIP or DAB as the chromogens. The results were then analyzed by the Nuance and InForm systems with a with the Zeiss Axioskop microscope to determine what percentage of cells were expressing the two targets of interest.

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.
