Western blotting analysis was performed by SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Samples containing 30 μg of proteins were loaded into 12.5% SDS-PAGE gel. Then, samples were transferred to PVDF membranes using a semi dry transfer apparatus (Trans-blot Turbo, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). Membranes were treated with a blocking solution, containing 5% of non-fat dry milk in 1X TBS-T buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% Tween, pH 7.5), for 1 h and then incubated overnight with primary antibodies at 4 °C. Immunoreactivity was detected using the donkey anti-rabbit or anti-mouse secondary peroxidase-conjugated (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA). The immunoreactive bands were visualized using the enhanced chemiluminescence detection kit (ECL Advance, GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA). The following antibodies were used for Western blot analysis: mouse monoclonal anti-mtTFA (sc-376672, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA, dilution 1:500), mouse monoclonal anti-β-Actin (66009-1-Ig, Proteintech, Rosemont, IL, USA, dilution 1:10,000), rabbit monoclonal anti-TOM20 (#42406, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA, Rosemont, IL, USA, dilution 1:1000), Total OXPHOS Rodent WB Antibody Cocktail (ab110413, Abcam, Cambridge, UK, dilution 1:500) and rabbit polyclonal anti-GAPDH (GTX100118, GeneTex, Irvine, CA, USA, dilution 1:10,000).

Protein was extracted from cells or aortic tissues using a protein extraction kit containing the protease inhibitor phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride and protein phosphatase inhibitor. The concentration was determined using a BCA Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime, P0010). Proteins were denatured at 100°C for 10 min, electrophoretically separated on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel, and transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked with 10% bovine serum at room temperature for 1 h. Membranes were then incubated with the primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. Membranes were washed three times for 15 min and probed with a secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. Then, the membranes were washed three times for 15 min again. The bands were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL Advance; no. RPN2235, GE Healthcare Life Sciences). Finally, the signals were recorded using a ChemiDoc imaging system (Bio-Rad Laboratories). Tubulin or β-actin was used as a negative control.

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.
