We washed cells twice with PBS and incubated with the protein lysis buffer [50 mM Tris–HCl, pH8; 150 mM NaCl; 1% Triton X-100; 10% glycerol; 1 mM EDTA; 1× cOmplete EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche)] for 10 min before centrifugation. We determined the protein concentration by Bradford assay (Bio-Rad). We ran 30 μg of protein by SDS-PAGE and transferred them to PVDF membrane (Bio-Rad, USA). We detected the specific proteins by the following primary antibodies: anti-MBNL1 (ab108519, Abcam), anti-RBFOX2 (A300-864A, Bethyl), anti-SNRPE (sc-21057, Santa Cruz), anti-RAVER2(ab174321, Abcam), anti-GEMIN2 (sc-32806, Santa Cruz), anti-hnRNP A1 (sc-32301), anti-KSRP (A302-021A, Bethyl), anti-GAPDH (sc-25778, Santa Cruz), anti-αTubulin (sc-8035, Santa Cruz) and anti-β-Actin (A5441, Sigma-Aldrich). We quantified the protein samples from three biological replicates using the Quantity One software (Bio-Rad, Life Science Research). We derived the relative expression of each protein from its ratio over reference protein level.

Total protein was extracted by Radioimmunoprecipitation lysate protein extraction reagent (RIPA, Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF). Determination of protein concentration was carried out using bicinchoninic acid (BCA) Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). The 10% SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was employed to separate the proteins, and then the proteins were transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF, Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) membranes. The membranes were probed with primary antibodies overnight at 4℃ and then incubated with the secondary antibody at 37℃. Signals were developed using the enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) method and the grey values of the bands were analyzed using Quantity One 4.6.2 software. All the antibodies were gained from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA), including anti-proliferating cell nuclear antigen (anti-PCNA, 1:1000, ab92552, Abcam), anti-alpha smooth muscle actin (anti-α-SMA, 1:1000, ab108424, Abcam), anti-collagen I (anti-Col I, 1:1000, ab34710, Abcam), anti-fibronectin (anti-FN, 1:1000, ab174833, Abcam), anti-Col IV (1:400, ab6586, Abcam), anti-GAPDH (1:2500, ab9485, Abcam), anti-Mbnl1 (1:1000, ab108519, Abcam), and goat Anti-Rabbit IgG coupled horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (1:2000, ab6721 Abcam).

Western Blot Analysis of miR-30-5p Targets

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Proteins were extracted from the HEK293T transfected with the mixture of equivalent amount of miR-30-5p constructs, using RIPA buffer (Solarbio; Beijing, China) containing 1 mM PMSF (Solarbio; Beijing, China). Then, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was performed in the 8% or 12% polyacrylamide gels with 20 μg proteins per lane. After this, the proteins in the gels were transferred onto the PVDF membrane that then were blocked with 5% skim milk in Tris Buffered Saline with Tween (TBST) buffer (0.15 M NaCl, 1 M Tris–HCl pH 8.0, 0.05% Tween-20) for 2 h at room temperature. After incubation with primary antibody against MBNL1 (dilution 1:1000; ab108519; Abcam, Shanghai, China), MyoG (dilution 1:1000; ab124800; Abcam, Shanghai, China), MHC (dilution 1:1000; ab24648; Abcam, Shanghai, China) at 4 °C overnight, the PVDF membrane were washed in TBST buffer and incubated with secondary antibody for the anti-immune rabbit IgG (dilution 1:4000; LK2001; Sungene Biotech, Tianjin, China) conjugated with HRP. Antibody reacting bands were detected by means of ECL detection reagents. The β-tubulin was used as internal control, whose primary antibody (dilution 1:1000; KDM9003; Sungene Biotech, Tianjin, China) and secondary antibody for anti-immune mouse IgG-HRP (dilution 1:4000; LK2003; Sungene Biotech, Tianjin, China) were purchased from the Tianjin Sungene Biotech.

Dissected tissues were frozen with liquid nitrogen and stored in −80 °C refrigerators until protein extraction. Tissue homogenization was done by vortex in cell lysis buffer. After being separated on SDS-PAGE gels, the lysate was transferred to PVDF membranes and incubated with primary antibodies (anti-MBNL1, Abcam, ab108519; anti-SIX5, Abcam, ab113064; anti-DMWD, Santa Cruz, sc-167638; anti-DMPK, Santa Cruz, sc-13612) at 4 °C overnight, followed by incubation with secondary antibodies.

Proteins were extracted from the cells after transfection using radio immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis solution. Protein concentrations were determined using a bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay kit (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). Equal amounts of protein (50 mg per sample) were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS PAGE) (10%) and transferred onto PVDF transfer membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Membranes were blocked in 5% non-fat milk at 37°C for 1 h and then incubated with the corresponding antibodies at 4°C overnight. Antibodies used were anti-MBNL1 (ab108519; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), anti-MRTF-A (ab49311, Abcam), and anti-GAPDH (#97166; CST, Boston, MA, USA). Signals were obtained by Plus ECL reagent kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Immunoblots were visualized and analyzed by chemiluminescence using an Image Lab system (Bio-Rad).

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.
