Cells from blood samples were treated with ammonium chloride-based buffer (10X RCB lysis buffer) followed by a series of washes with a phosphate buffer solution (PBS) of pH 7.4. Cells were suspended at a concentration of 1x 106 cells/ml and incubated with a rabbit anti-SIRT1 antibody (Abcam) for 20 min at 4°C, followed by incubation with an anti-rabbit FITC secondary antibody (eBioscience) for 30 min to detect SIRT1-positive cells. After washing with PBS, the cells were resuspended in a solution with 1% p-formaldehyde and stored at 4°C until analysis in the FACSCanto II flow cytometer (BD). The results were expressed as the percentage of positive cells.

For protein quantification cells were washed with PBS, resuspended in lysis buffer (HEPES 100 mmol/L, 1 mol/L NaCl, 200 mmol/L MgCl2, 100 mmol/L EDTA and Triton X-100, pH 7.4) and lysed by sonication at 50% amplitude. Then, the cells were centrifuged at 12,000 rpm (2400 × g) at 4 °C for 30 min. The supernatant was used to determine protein concentrations by the Bradford method (BCA Protein Assay, Thermo Scientific; Rockford, IL, USA). For immunoblots, 50 μg of total protein of HeLa, 3T3 and PBMC samples were electrophoresed through 4%–15% SDS-polyacrylamide gel, transferred to 0.45 μm nitrocellulose membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) on a semi-dry electro transferring unit (Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System, Bio-Rad Laboratories) and immunoblotted using a rabbit polyclonal anti-NAT1 antibody (1: 1000), mouse polyclonal anti-NAT2 antibody (1: 500), rabbit anti-SIRT1 antibody (1:500; Abcam) or mouse monoclonal anti-SIRT6 antibody (1: 3000), and then incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 h. Finally, anti-β-actin antibody (R&D) was used as a loading and transfer control. The membranes were revealed by chemiluminescence. The intensities of the bands were detected using the ChemiDoc XRS+ System (Bio-Rad).

Immunohistochemical Quantification of SIRT1 in Liver

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver specimens fixed in 10% buffered formalin were embedded in paraffin blocks. Sections (5 μm thick) of the liver were processed using a standard immunostaining protocol. After routine deparaffinization, hydration, and blockage of endogenous peroxidase, sections were pretreated by microwave for 20 min in 10 mmol/L sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for antigen retrieval and followed by incubation sequentially with blocking agent, rabbit anti-SIRT1 antibody (1 : 100, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) and secondary antibody (1 : 200, Promega, Madison, WI, USA).
Slides were counterstained with hematoxylin after 3 min of diaminobenzidine reaction, and cover slipped using Vectashield (Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA, USA), then photographed and converted to a digital image using light microscopy equipped with a camera (Olympus CX31, NY, USA). Negative control was carried out by omitting the primary antibody. Positive staining (dark brown) for SIRT1 in livers was quantified by two investigators in a blinded manner at a magnification of 400x using image analysis software Image-Pro Plus, and the results were expressed as the ratio of the mean of normal SD rats. Three slides were chosen at random in each animal for quantification (total 24 slides for each group).

Western Blot Analysis of MMP-13, SIRT1, and NF-κB

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cells were washed twice with PBS and then lysed, homogenized, sonicated, and centrifuged. The protein concentration in the supernatant was determined by using a protein assay reagent (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Samples and prestained molecular weight markers were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore, Bedford, MA). The membranes were blocked in 5% skim milk in PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 (PBS-Tween) for 2 h. The membranes were incubated in PBS-Tween containing rabbit anti-MMP-13 antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, MA; diluted at 1:400), rabbit anti-SIRT1 antibody (Abcam; diluted at 1:1,000), rabbit anti-acetyl-p65 antibody (Abcam; diluted at 1:500), or rabbit anti-β-actin antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA; diluted at 1:1,000) for 1 h at ambient temperature and then incubated overnight at 4°C. The following day, it was incubated for another 2 h at ambient temperature with anti-rabbit secondary horseradish peroxidase-linked antibody (CST, Danvers, MA; diluted at 1:2,000). The peroxidase activity on the PVDF membrane was visualized on X-ray films by using an ECL detection kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Chalfont St Giles, UK), according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

Skin primary fibroblasts were harvested when cells were at a confluency of 80%‐90%. The protein content was measured with BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime). Denatured proteins (20 μg) were separated by 10% SDS‐PAGE and transferred to 0.45 μm PVDF membrane, blocked with TBST containing 5% skim milk or 5% BSA and incubated with rabbit anti‐SIRT1 antibody (1:1000, Abcam), rabbit anti‐Smad2/3 antibody (1:1000, CST), rabbit anti‐Smad4 antibody (1:1000, CST), rabbit anti‐YAP/TAZ antibody (1:1000, CST), rabbit anti‐MMP1 antibody (1:1000, ProteinTech Group), rabbit anti‐COL1 antibody (1:1000, Abcam), rabbit anti‐BCL2 antibody (1:1000, Abcam) and mouse anti‐GAPDH antibody (1:10 000, ProteinTech Group) at 4°C overnight. The membranes were incubated with HRP‐labelled goat anti‐rabbit IgG (H + L) (1:1000, Beyotime) or HRP‐labelled goat anti‐mouse IgG (H + L) (1:1000, Beyotime) for 1.5 hours at room temperature. The blots were visualized with enhanced ECL (Beyotime) following exposure to DNR MF‐ChemiBIS 2.0 (ISR). All experiments were tested at least three times.

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.
