With regard to the immunofluorescence method, myocardial tissue slices were incubated with the following primary antibodies: Rabbit anti-NLRP3 (1:100, Proteintech, 19771-1-AP, United States), anti-Caspase 1 (1:50, Proteintech, 22915-1-AP, United States), anti-IL-1β (1:200, Proteintech, 26048-1-AP, United States), anti-IL-18 (1:400, Proteintech, 10663-1-AP, China), anti-ASC (1:800, Cell Signaling, #67824, United States).
The slices were then washed and detected with appropriate Fluor dye, DyLight 488 (1:50, EarthOx, E032220-01, United States), as secondary antibodies followed by counterstaining with DAPI in the dark. Afterward, immunofluorescent signaling was observed with a fluorescence microscope (IX73 Olympus). Digital images and data were recorded and analyzed by applying ImageJ (NIH).

Tissue sections were dewaxed, dehydrated. Antigen was retrieved in microwave in sodium citrate solution. Sections were then incubated with 3% H2O2 for 15 min and blocked with mouse immunoglobulin G blocking reagent (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA) for 1 h. Sections were incubated with anti-caspase-1 (Cell Signaling) or anti-IL-18 (Proteintech) polyclonal antibodies at a dilution of 1:200 for 30 minutes, and then incubated with goat anti-rabbit HRP-labeled antibodies for 30 min. Sections were observed with a light microscope after counterstaining. Control sections were incubated with PBS instead of the specific primary antibodies.

Protein samples extracted from renal tissues or HK-2 cells were used. SDS-PAGE and PVDF membrane transfer were performed as previously described (Wang et al., 2019 (link)). After blocking for 1 h at room temperature, the following primary antibodies were used: anti-GSDMD-N (1:1000, CST, USA), anti-cleaved caspase-1 (1:1000, CST), anti-NLRP3 (1:1000, Proteintech), anti-IL-1β (1:1000, Abcam), anti-IL-18 (1:1000, Proteintech), anti-TXNIP (1:1000, Abcam), and anti-β-actin (1:1000, Santa Cruz, USA). Secondary antibodies were used at a dilution of 1:5000. Signals were detected with a ChemiDoc XRS system (Bio-Rad, CA, USA). ImageJ software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA) was used to quantify the protein bands against β-actin.

Samples were subjected to 12% SDS-PAGE and were then transferred to nitrocellulose filter membranes. Membranes were blocked in 5% skim milk at 25 °C for 1.5 hours and were then incubated with the primary antibodies. Anti-Caspase-1 (1 µg/mL; BOSTER), anti-NLRP3 (1 µg/mL; BOSTER), anti-IL-1β (2 µg/mL; BIOSS, Shanghai, China), anti-IL-18 (0.76 µg/mL; Proteintech), anti-ASC (2 µg/mL; BIOSS, Shanghai, China), anti-PDCD6 (programmed cell death protein 6; 0.734 µg/mL; Proteintech), anti-Cleaved Caspase-1(1 µg/mL;Cell Signaling Technology), and anti-Actin (0.22 µg/mL; Proteintech) antibodies were used in this study. After 4 washes with PBS, membranes were incubated and reacted with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies. Immunoreactive bands were developed with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Amersham, United Kingdom).

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.
