Anti hsf1

Manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology
Sourced in United States

Anti-HSF1 is a laboratory reagent that detects the heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) protein. HSF1 is a key regulator of the cellular stress response and is involved in the transcriptional activation of heat shock genes. The Anti-HSF1 product can be used to identify and quantify the HSF1 protein in various biological samples through techniques such as Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry.

Liver lesions were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde overnight at 4°C, embedded in paraffin, and evaluated by two board-certified pathologists (S.R. and F.D.) in accordance with the criteria by Frith et al [37 (link)]. For immunohistochemistry, antigen retrieval was performed in 10mM sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) by placement in a microwave on high for 10 min, followed by a 20 min cool down at room temperature. After a blocking step with 5% goat serum and Avidin-Biotin Blocking Kit (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA), the slides were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Specifically, the anti-c-Myc (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Santa Cruz, CA, USA; # sc-40) and anti-HSF1 (Cell Signaling Technology Inc., Danvers, CA, USA; # 4356) primary antibodies were selected since they have been extensively validated by the manufacturers for immunohistochemistry. Slides were then subjected to 3% hydrogen peroxide for 10 min to quench endogenous peroxidase activity and subsequently the biotin conjugated secondary antibody was applied at a 1:500 dilution for 30 min at room temperature. The immunoreactivity was visualized with the Vectastain Elite ABC kit (Vector Laboratories), using Vector NovaRED™ (Vector Laboratories) as the chromogen. Slides were counterstained with Mayer’s hematoxylin.

Mice were heart-perfused by saline and 4% PFA, postfixed in 4% PFA overnight. Mouse brains were paraffin-embedded and 5 μm sections were deparaffinized by passing through 100% xylene and rehydrated through serial dilutions of ethanol (100, 95, and 75%). Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining was performed and images were captured under a light microscope. For OCT embedding, perfused brains were cryoprotected by 30% sucrose infiltration and then sectioned at 10 μm using a cryostat (Leica). Anti-HSF1 (1:100; cell signaling), anti-β-Amyloid (clone 4G8; 1:100; Covance), anti-NeuN (1:100; Millipore), anti-GFAP (1:1000; Sigma), anti-Iba1 (1:500; Wako) antibody was used and nuclei were stained with DAPI.

Myocardium tissues were harvested for Western Blot following standard protocol. Nucleoprotein was extracted according to the Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Protein Extraction Kit (P0027, Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Suzhou, China). 50 μg/lane protein or 20 μg/lane nucleoprotein Proteins were run on 10% SDS-PAGE, and then electrotransferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. The membranes were incubated with the primary antibodies anti-HSF1(#4356; 1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), anti-Omi/HtrA2(#2176; 1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), anti-GAPDH(#2118; 1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), or anti-Histone H3 (#4499; 1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) overnight at 4°C.

For western blot detection, the crude proteins were extracted and the concentration of proteins was determined using a Micro BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher, USA). The cell lysates (30 µg/Lane) were separated on 10-12% gels using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The proteins in the gel were then transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes. After blocking with 5% fat-free dry milk in TBST, membranes were probed with primary antibodies, including anti-HSF1 (diluted 1:1000), anti-CD69 (diluted 1:500), and anti-β-actin (diluted 1:2500). The anti-HSF1 (Clone: D3L8I, Catalog: 12972S) and anti-β-actin (Clone: 8H10D10, Catalog: 3700S) antibody were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. The anti-CD69 antibody (Clone: D-3, Catalog: sc-373799) were purchased from Santa Cruz. The bound antibodies were detected using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies (Santa Cruz, USA) and visualized by enhanced chemiluminescent reagents (Thermo Fisher, USA).
The levels of cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-β1 in the supernatant of cultured cells were measured using ELISA kits (eBioscience, USA). For the detection of TGF-β1, 100 µl of supernatants were acidified with 20 µL of 1N HCl at room temperature for 10 min and then neutralized with 20 µl of 1N NaOH to activate latent TGF-β1 into its immunoreactive form.

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.
