Cells (1 × 106) were lysed with lysis buffer. Supernatant was collected followed by the detection of protein concentration using BCA (PC0020, Beijing Solarbio Science and Technology Co., Ltd, Beijing, China). The isolated 50 µg proteins were separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and then transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (LC2005, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The membrane was then blocked for 2 h with skim milk powder and probed with primary antibody of rabbit polyclonal antibodies to CD63 (ab134045), CD9 (ab223052), CD81 (ab155760), HSP70 (ab79852), SOX9 (ab185966) and GAPDH (ab181612) from (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) at 4°C overnight. The goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG; ab97051, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) labelled by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) served as the secondary antibody for 1 h of incubation at a room temperature. The membrane was then immersed in enhanced chemiluminescence reaction solution (BM101, Biomiga, San Diego, CA, USA) for development for 1 min in a dark room. The image was subjected to grey scale analysis using Gel-Pro Analyzer 4.0 (Media Cybernetics, Bethesda, MD, USA). The protein expression was normalized to endogenous GAPDH.

Total protein was extracted from the tissues, and the protein concentration was measured using a Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Then, 40 μg of each sample was loaded and separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). After separation, the proteins were transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Merck Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA), and blocked with 5% dried skimmed milk powder for one hour. The membranes were incubated with the primary rabbit polyclonal antibodies to Hsp70 (1: 10000) (ab79852; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and β-actin (1: 1000) (ab8227; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) overnight at 4°C. The membrane was washed three times using TBST, containing TBS and 1 ml/L of Tween-20, for 10 mins. The membranes were then incubated with goat anti-rabbit IgG (1: 2000) (ab6721; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) for one hour at room temperature. After washing, the results were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) and quantified using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).

After hAD-MSCs reached 90% confluency, the cells were washed and serum-starved for 6 h in basal medium (DMEM/F-12; Gibco). Thereafter, the medium was collected and centrifuged at 720 ×g for 30 min at 4℃ to remove cellular debris, followed by centrifugation at 100,000 ×g for 100 min at 4℃ (Sorvall LYNX-6000, Thermo Fisher Scientific) to sediment the EXOs. The protein content of the concentrated EXOs was measured using the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay kit (CW0014; CWBiotech, Beijing, China). The morphology of the exosomes was observed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM; JEOL-1200-EX II; JEOL, Tokyo, Japan). Exosomes were identified using specific antibodies targeting CD63 (ab217345, Abcam), CD9 (ab92726, Abcam), CD81 (ab109201, Abcam), and heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70; ab79852, Abcam), which were used for western blotting analysis. All antibodies were diluted to 1:1,000.

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.
