For western blot analysis, MSCs (2 × 105 cells/well) were seeded in 6-well plates and cultured in osteogenic media. Cells were treated with CoCl2 (50 μM) for 1, 3, 5 and 7 days. Cryptotanshinone (10 μM) or DMSO was added to the cells in the appropriate groups for the duration of the culture. Cell lysates were extracted on day 7 [18 (link), 22 (link)]. Total protein was estimated using the BCA Protein Assay (Thermo Scientific). Total protein (20 μg) was separated by 10% SDS-PAGE (Biotech) and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (Roche). The membranes were blocked with 5% skimmed milk (Biosharp) absorbed in 10% tris-buffered saline with 0.1% tween 20 (TBST; Gibco) at room temperature for 1 h. Then, the membranes were incubated on a shaker for 8 h at 4 °C with one of the primary antibodies: anti-HIF-1α (Santa), anti-ALP (Abcam), anti-Osx (Abcam), anti-Runx2 (Abcam), anti-Col1α1 (Santa) and anti-GAPDH (Protech). The membranes were then incubated with secondary antibody (Abbkine) and absorbed in TBST for 1 h at room temperature. Blots were visualized, and the relative density of each blot was determined using Image J software 1.49 (NID).

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.
