Total protein was extracted from cultured cells using radioimmunoprecipitation (RIPA) lysis solution and protein concentration was assessed. Equal amount of proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, and then transferred onto PVDF membranes. After being blocked by 5% non-fat milk in 0.1%TBST (Tris-buffered saline), the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C followed by incubation with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 h. Protein signal was detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) kit. GAPDH was used as an internal control to normalize protein levels. The primary antibodies used in this study include Bcl-2 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), BAX (Abcam), Pro-caspase-3 (Abcam), cleaved-caspase-3 (Abcam), ACAN (Santa Cruz, USA), COL2A (Santa Cruz), MMP13 (Santa Cruz), LC3 (Proteintech, Chicago, IL, USA), Beclin-1 (Proteintech), p-62 (Proteintech) and GAPDH (Santa Cruz).

Rat chondrocytes were lysed by RIPA lysis buffer to extract the total protein which was separated by SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis and transferred to PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) membrane (0.2 μm; BioRad). After 1 h blocking with 5% skimmed milk, the membrane was incubated with primary antibody ACAN (Abcam, ab36861), COL2A (Santa Cruz, sc-7763), IL-1β (Proteintech, 66,737-1-lg), IL-6 (Zen Bio, 347023), MMP-13 (Zen Bio, 511755), PTGS2 (Zen Bio, 383967), Bcl-2 (Zen Bio, 381702), CDK1 (Abcam,ab18), Cyclin D1 (Zen Bio, 382442), p-AMPKα1 (Zen Bio, 310044), AMPKα (Zen Bio, 380431), and GAPDH (Zen Bio, 384404) antibodies overnight at 4°C. After washing 3 times with 1×TBST, the membrane was incubated with horseradish peroxidase-labeled secondary antibody (goat anti-rabbit/mouse IgG, 1:5,000) at room temperature for 1 h. Finally, target protein was visualized by the ECL Western Detection Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, United States) and quantified by ImageJ software.

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.
