Western blotting was performed as previously reported 16. Separated proteins were immunolabeled with antibodies against synaptotagmin (Syt) (ab13259; Abcam), PSD-95 (3450s; Cell Signaling Technology), Kalirin-7 (07-122; Millipore), Wnt3a (09-162, Millipore), β-catenin (51067-2-AP, Proteintech), p-GSK-3β (9323, CST), GSK-3β (12456, CST), and CyclinD1 (ab137875, Abcam). Blots were imaged using an Odyssey IR fluorescence scanning system, and protein expression quantified by densitometric analysis using ImageJ. Anti-β-actin (Proteintech, China) was used as an internal gel-loading control.

Hippocampal and cortical protein extracts were separated on 12% SDS polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes at 276 mA for 1 h. The membranes were blocked with 3% BSA in PBS, and incubated overnight with primary antibodies at 4 °C. Antibodies used in our study were DM1A (T9026, sigma), synaptophysin (MAB368, Millipore), Synaptotagmin I (ab13259, abcam), PSD95 (#2507, cell signaling), NMDAR1 (AB9864, Millipore), GluR1 (04-855, Millipore), PS396 (11102, Signalway Antibody), PS199 (AB9652, Millipore), GFP (ab1218, abcam) and Tau-5 (MAB361, Millipore). The membranes were incubated with fluorescent secondary antibodies in 3% BSA for 1 h at room temperature and washed. Odyssey system was used for color development and analysis of blots. In particular, the band used for the quantifications of PS199 and PS396 includes all bands among 55–80 KD.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Wildtype male and female mice were mated and at e14-15 the females were euthanized with cervical dislocation, the embryos removed and cortex dissected out and primary cultures were set up as previously described in Perland et al. (2016) (link). Immunocytochemistry was performed as described in Perland et al. (2016) (link) with anti-UNC93A diluted 1:100 in supermix blocking solution. Co-staining with neuronal marker Pan diluted 1:200 (MAB2300, Millipore), KDEL markers (ab12223, Abcam) diluted 1:200, Syntaxin 6 (Ab12370, Abcam) diluted 1:100, Synaptotagmin (ab13259, Abcam) diluted 1:200 and SNAP25 (ab25737, Abcam) diluted in 1:100 in supermix blocking solution. Images were acquired at the SciLifeLab BioVis Facility (Uppsala University) using confocal LSM710 SIM (Zeiss) and the Zen black software (Zeiss) or Olympus microscope BX55 with an Olympus DP73 camera and the cellSens Dimension v1.14 (Olympus). Images were then handled using ImageJ, Fiji edition (Schindelin et al., 2012 (link)).
In addition, immunocytochemistry for the N-terminal anti-UNC93A antibody (ab173552, Abcam), diluted 1:80 in 5% milk block (Bio-Rad), was performed as described above.

Western blotting was performed as described in our previous studies 55 (link). In brief, mice were killed by overdose of ketamine and xylazine, and dentate gyrus was isolated as described as described by Hagihara et al 56 . Proteins were extracted using RIPA buffer (P0013B, Beyotime). Protein concentration was determined by BCA method. An equal amount of total proteins for each sample was loaded, separated by 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes. The membranes were blocked with 5% defatted milk for 1 hour at room temperature, and subsequently incubated with primary and IRDye® 800CW-conjuncted secondary antibodies (1:2000, LI-COR Biosciences), in turn, overnight at 4 °C: GSK-3β (Phospho-Ser9) (1:1000, 9323S, Cell signaling), GSK-3β (Phospho-Tyr216) (1:1000,05-413, Millipore), GSK-3β (1:1000, 40988, Signalway Antibody), CDK5 (1:500, 33178, Signalway Antibody), DCX (1:1000, ab18723, Abcam), Synapsin1 (1:1000, ab64581, Abcam), synaptotagamin (1:1000, ab13259, Abcam), synaptophysin (1:1000, ab32127, Abcam), PSD95 (1:1000, 2507, Cell signaling), β-actin (1:1000, 21800, Signalway Antibody). The bands were visualized after washing with TBST using an Odyssey Infrared Imaging System (LI-COR biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA). Bands were analyzed by Image J software (Fiji).

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.
