Western Blot Analysis of EPC Extracts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cellular extracts from EPCs were prepared according to standard protocols (Andrews and Faller, 1991 (link)). Protein concentration was determined by the Bradford method (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). Cytoplasmic extracts (50 μg) or nuclear extracts (50 μg) were separated in a 4–20% Ready Gel Tris-HCl gel (Bio-Rad Laboratories), transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes in a semi-dry transfer system. The membrane was immediately placed into blocking buffer containing 5% nonfat milk and sequentially blotted against monoclonal primary antibodies (NFκB p65, IκBα, p53, and β-actin). All antibodies were from Cell Signaling (Boston, MA, USA) except β-actin (Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, USA). Protein levels were quantified using the image analysis software Quantity One 4.4.0 (Bio-Rad Laboratories), using β-actin as a loading control.

Cellular extracts from THP-1 were prepared according to standard protocol [54 (link)]. Total protein concentration was determined using the colorimetric reagent of the Bradford assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). To determine specific protein contents, cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts (50 μg each) were separated in a 4–20% Ready Gel Tris-HCl gel (Bio-Rad Laboratories) and then transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. The membranes were blocked in TTBS with 5% milk for 1 h at room temperature and incubated with primary antibodies, including anti-p65-NF-κB and IκB (both from Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) and β-actin as a loading control (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA) overnight at 4 °C. Specific bands were visualized using ECL Western Blotting Detection System (Amersham Biosciences, Buckinghamshire, UK). Subsequently, the intensity of the bands was quantified through densitometry analysis using Image J software (version 1.52p) by measuring the integrated optical density (IOD).

Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer. Total protein concentration was determined by DC™ Protein Assay kit (Bio-Rad). A total of 30 µg of protein was separated using 4-15% gradient SDS-PAGE (4-15% Ready Gel® Tris-HCL Gel; Bio-Rad) and transferred onto a PVDF membrane using the Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System (Bio-Rad).

Western blots were performed to detect proteins characteristic of cardiac differentiation. Whole proteins were extracted from the cells using radio-immunoprecipitation assay buffer (Thermo Scientific) according to manufacturer instructions. The protein content was quantified using the Bradford method. Absorbance at 595 nm was read using a microplate reader (Spectra max 384 Plus, Molecular Devices). Protein for each sample, 60 µg, was loaded to perform electrophoresis in a precast 4–20% SDS-PAGE (Ready Gel Tris-HCl Gel, BioRad) and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane (Whatman) using a semi-dry method. Proteins were detected using the following primary antibodies: mouse monoclonal anti-alpha cardiac actin (Sigma, A9357, 1∶1,000), rabbit anti-cardiac troponin I–C (Santa Cruz, sc-98830, 1∶1,000), and rabbit anti-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Millipore, MAB374, 1∶850).

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.
