Following a previously described method [20 (link),21 (link)], Bax, Bcl-2, and cytochrome c expression was measured by western blot analysis. Using protein lysis buffer, hippocampal samples were lysed and a colorimetric protein assay kit was used to detect protein concentrations (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). After 30 μg of protein was separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, the separated protein was transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Schleicher & Schuell GmbH, Dassel, Germany). Anti-mouse β-actin antibody (1:1,000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), anti-rabbit Bax antibody (Cell signaling Technology; 1:1,000), anti-mouse Bcl-2 antibody (1:1,000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), and anti-rabbit cytochrome c antibody (1:1,000; Cell signaling Technology) were used as the primary antibodies. The secondary antibodies were horseradish peroxidase–conjugated anti-mouse antibodies (1:3,000; Vector Laboratories) for β-actin and Bcl-2, and horseradish peroxidase–conjugated anti-rabbit antibodies (1:5,000; Vector Laboratories) for Bax and cytochrome c.

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.
