Immunoblot Analysis of Osteoprogenitor Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Stimulated osteoprogenitor cells were lysed with 1X RIPA buffer containing phosphatase (5870S, Cell Signaling Technology, USA) and protease (535140, Calbiochem, USA) inhibitors. Proteins were quantified using the Bradford assay. Total cell protein (10–30 μg) was subjected to immunoblotting using the following antibodies: β-catenin (9562S), active β-catenin (19807S), phos-AKT (Ser473) (4060), total-AKT (4691), phos-ERK (9101), total-ERK (9102), and GAPDH (2118) from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA). CDKN1A (p21; A19094) and OCN (ab13420) antibodies were obtained from Abaclonal and abcam, respectively. WNT16 (sc-271897), CASP3 (sc-7272), and OPN (sc-21742) antibodies were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology. Goat anti-rabbit IgG (111-035-003) and goat anti-mouse IgG (115-035-003) secondary antibodies were obtained from Jackson ImmunoResearch (West Grove, PA, USA).

Western Blot Analysis of Osteopontin

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total proteins were extracted from the gastrocnemius muscle and separated by 13% SDS-PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and were transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (GE Healthcare Biosciences, Pittsburgh, PA, USA) for 60 min at 0.35A at 4°C. Membranes were then pre-stained in 0.2% Ponceau S, to ensure protein transfer and equal protein loading of the lanes. Membranes were blocked with 5% non fat milk in PBS, 0.1% Tween 20 (TBS-T) for 1 h and probed using the primary antibodies against OPN sc-21742 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Dallas, TX, USA). After an overnight period of incubation, membranes were washed three times with TBS-T for 10 min. The blots were then immunostained with Pierce® Anti-mouse IgG (HRP) Polyclonal antibody (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and posterior detection of protein was done using Novex® ECL Chemiluminescent Substrate Reagent Kit (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA).
Quantitative analysis of mouse OPN present in total protein extracted was performed using the ImageJ software (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/), with myosin at the Ponceau staining as a protein loading control. The value of each animal was normalized to the normal control within the same blot.

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.
