For Western blotting, cells and tissues were lysed in RIPA buffer (Tris-HCl 25 mM, pH 7.6; NaCl 150 mM; NP-40 1%; sodium deoxycholate 1%; SDS 0.1%) with protease inhibitors and phosphatase inhibitors. Protein concentration was measured using bicinchoninic acid (BCA) (ComWin Biotech, China). Equal amounts of protein were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to a PVDF membrane which was incubated in 5% milk in Tris-buffered saline for 1 h at room temperature, followed by incubation with primary antibodies against ACE2 (Cell Signaling Technology, USA, 1:1000 dilution), FoxO1 (Cell Signaling Technology, USA, 1:1000 dilution), SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid (NP) (SinoBiologicals, China, 1:1000 dilution), HA (Cell Signaling Technology, USA, 1:1000 dilution) and Flag (Cell Signaling Technology, USA, 1:1000 dilution) overnight at 4°C, and a secondary antibody (1:10000 dilution) conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (Cell Signaling Technology, USA) for 1 h at room temperature. Membranes were developed with chemiluminescent ECL reagents (Millipore, USA). The relative expression of target protein to the control β-actin were determined by densitometric analysis using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, USA).

All 96-well plates were washed 3× with PBS-T for 5 min and then permeabilized with 1% Triton X-100 in PBS for 15 min at RT. Primary antibody against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (NP) (Sino Biological) (1:500) in PBS-T was added at 50 μL/well at RT for 1 h. Wells were washed 3× with PBS-T for 5 min. Secondary polyclonal goat antimouse Alexa Fluor 488 antibody (1:1000) in PBS-T was added at 50 μL/well at RT for 1 h.48 (link) Wells were washed 3× with PBS-T for 5 min. DAPI (1:1000) in PBS-T was added at 50 μL/well at RT for 5 min for visualization of cell nuclei. Wells were washed 3× with PBS-T for 5 min, and 200 μL/well of PBS-T was added for storage. Infection was quantified by counting the number of NP-positive cells per well using a Nikon Eclipse Ti epifluorescence microscope.

Δ6-RBD vaccines induced neutralizing activities against live SARS-CoV-2 WT or variants infection were detected using the plaque assay as described previously (25 (link)). The experiment was conducted in a BSL-3 laboratory at Shenzhen Center for Disease Control and Prevention. In brief, serum from each immunized mouse was diluted and mixed with the same volume of SARS-CoV-2 (100 PFU) and incubated at 37°C for 1 h. Thereafter, 200 μL of the virus-serum mixtures were transferred to pre-plated Vero E6 cells in 24-well plates. Inoculated cells were incubated at 37°C for two days. Then, Vero E6 cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.2% Triton X-100. The cells were incubated sequentially with primary antibody against the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (NP) (SinoBiological) overnight at 4°C, horse radish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibody (Abcam), and TMB substrate (KPL). The plaque reduction neutralizing antibody titer (PRNT50) was defined as the minimal serum dilution that suppressed > 50% of viral plaques.

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.
