Membranes were incubated in goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (1:10,000; TDY Biotech, Beijing, China) for 1 hour at 37°C. Proteins bands were visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescence method (Xu et al., 2017). Images were captured and analyzed using an image analysis system (GelDoc XR+; ProteinSimple, San Jose, CA, USA). Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAPDH; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) was used as the internal control. Protein concentration was measured by bicinchoninic acid assay (Xu et al., 2017).

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.
