Cytosolic protein was isolated from cells in lysis buffer A, containing Hepes (10 mM), KCl (10 mM), EDTA (0.1 mM), EGTA (0.1 mM), DTT (1 mM), PMSF (0.5 mM), Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (15 µL/mL; Sigma-Aldrich), Igepal CA-630 (0.5%; Sigma-Aldrich), pH 7.9. The suspension was centrifuged, and the supernatant (cytosolic extract) was stored. Nuclear extracts were obtained by incubating the pellet obtained from the cytosolic extract in lysis buffer B, containing HEPES (20 mM), NaCl (0.4 M), EDTA (1 mM), EGTA (1 mM), DTT (1 mM), PMSF (0.5 mM), Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (15 µL/mL), pH 7.9. Protein concentration was determined by Bradford assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). To determine specific protein contents, 20 µg of nuclear cell lysates were analyzed by immunoblotting using antibodies against proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA; 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology INC, Dallas, TX, USA), Cyclin D1 (1:500; Cell Signaling Technology Inc., Danvers, MA, USA) and cleaved Notch 1 (Val1744) (1:200; Cell Signaling Technology) as primary antibodies, and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse (1:10000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and goat anti-rabbit (1:10000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) as secondary antibodies.

HEK-293T (ATCC) cells were co-transfected with ADAMTS1 and Notch1 expression plasmids. The co-immunoprecipitation was performed using magnetic dynabeads protein G (Invitrogen). In co-culture experiments, HEK-293T cells expressing NOTCH1 and ADAMTS1 were co-cultured with NIH-3T3 cells (ATCC) expressing DLL1 for 5 h. The cell lysate were analyzed by co-immunoprecipitation and western blot. For western blotting, the muscle tissues and cells were extracted in RIPA lysis buffer (1× PBS, 1% NP-40, 0.1% SDS, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 1 mM EDTA). Protein extracts were subjected to electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The membranes were first incubated in blocking buffer and then incubated with antibodies. The antibodies used in this study were against: β-actin (Sigma, 1:5000, clone C2), NOTCH1 (BD Pharmingen, 1:200, clone MN1A), cleaved NOTCH1 val 1744 (Cell Signaling, 1:1000, clone 2421S), V5 (1:1000, Invitrogen) and ADAMTS1 (R&D Systems, 1:1000, clone CDSL0115031).

Cells were seeded onto Jagged1-coated plates to activate Notch signaling for 24 h in DMEM-low glucose supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Cells were lysed with 1 mL of ionic buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, and 0.05% SDS) supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail, phosphatase inhibitor, and 10 μM MG132 (all from Roche). Protein A/G Plus-agarose (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) and cleaved Notch1 (Val 1744; Cell Signaling Technology) were used for immunoprecipitation. Agarose beads were washed several times with cold Tris buffer containing 1 mM Tris, pH 7.4, and 15 mM NaCl (TBS) and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin in TBS. Whole lysates were precleared with agarose beads and then incubated overnight (rocking at 4°C) with cleaved Notch1 antibody. Whole cell lysates were added onto new pellets of agarose beads (previously blocked with bovine serum albumin) and incubated for 3 h in a rocking wheel at 4°C. Finally, the supernatant was removed and beads were washed several times with cold 1 × TBS-T (TBS supplemented with 0.05% Tween). Proteins were eluted with 2 × Laemmli buffer supplemented with dithiothreitol and denatured for 5 min at 99°C.

Western Blot Analysis of Protein Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total protein was extracted from approximately 2×106 cultured cells with RIPA buffer, and nuclear protein was extracted using NE-PER nuclear and cytoplasmic extraction reagents (Pierce, Rockford, IL) following the manufacturer's supplied protocol. In total, 40–80 μg of the proteins was separated by electrophoresis and then transferred onto a PVDF membrane, as previously described [21] (link). The membrane was blocked with 5% defatted milk and incubated with a primary antibody against DLK1 (Proteintech Group, Chicago, IL), NOTCH1 (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), cleaved NOTCH1 (Val1744, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA) or MMP9 (Aviva Systems Biology, San Diego, CA). The anti-Notch intracellular domain (NICD) antibody used in this study can only recognize cleaved and activated NOTCH1 but not full-length NOTCH1. After washing with PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20 (PBST), the membrane was incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), and the abundance of proteins was detected with chemiluminescence reagents. The membrane was reprobed with an antibody against GAPDH (KangChen Bio-Tech, Shanghai, China) or TBP (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) as internal controls for equivalent protein loading.

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.
