Isolation and Analysis of C2C12 Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Intracellular proteins of C2C12 myoblasts were isolated using RIPA lysis buffer with protease inhibitor and phosphorylation protease inhibitor cocktails (Thermo Fisher). The homogenates were then sonicated for 35 s and centrifuged (11,000 g for 10 min at 4°C) to remove the debris. The supernatants were collected, and protein concentrations were determined using a BCA Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime Biotechnology). Then, the denatured samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (GE Healthcare) for immunoblotting analysis. After blocking with 5% nonfat milk in Tris-buffered saline containing 0.1% Tween 20 for 1 h, the membranes were probed with corresponding antibodies (MyoD1, Abcam, ab64159; GAPDH, ProteinTech, 10494-1-AP). Proteins were visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence using horseradish peroxidase–conjugated antibodies, and band densities were quantified by the ImageJ software.

Myoblast Differentiation and Tissue Characterization

Cultured cells were washed with PBS, fixed, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma), blocked with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA, Sigma), and incubated overnight at 4 °C with the following primary antibodies: Pax7 (Abcam), Myod1 (Abcam), Myf5 (Abcam), Desmin (Abcam), Dystrophin (Abcam), Myogenin (Abcam), MyHC (DSHB), IL4Rα (Abcam), and PDGFRα (CST), this was followed by incubation with secondary antibodies for one hour at room temperature. The fusion index was determined as the ratio between the number of nuclei (at least two) incorporated into myotubes determined by immunodetection of MyHC and the total number. Tissue samples were sliced into serial 8-μm frozen sections. Tissue sections were fixed with cold acetone, permeabilized, and blocked as previously described, and then incubated overnight with primary antibodies against Dystrophin (Abcam), GFP (Abcam), CD206(Abcam), and INOS(Abcam) at 4 °C, followed by incubation with secondary antibodies for one hour at room temperature. Fluoroshield™ with DAPI (Sigma) was used to stain the nuclei. Immunoreactivity was visualized and imaged using a NIKANG fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

Protein Extraction and Western Blot Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The whole protein extraction kit (KGP2100, KeyGEN, China) was used to extract protein lysates of C2C12 cells. After being separated by electrophoresis on 10% SDS–PAGE at 80 V for 40 minutes and 120 V for 60 minutes, protein samples were transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore), followed by the process of blocking. PVDF membranes were then incubated with diluted primary (1:1000) and secondary (1:10000) antibodies, respectively. Finally, after several washings, protein expression was determined with the NcmECL High kit (NCM Biotech) and imaged by a Tanon 5200 Multi Scanning System (Tanon). Primary antibodies were myosin heavy chain (MyHC; Abclonal), myogenin (MYOG; Abcam), myoblast determination protein 1 (MyoD1; Abcam), and α-Tublin (CST). All secondary antibodies were from AiFang biological (AFSA001, AFSA004).

The explanted grafts were fixed in 10% formalin and embedded in paraffin. Sections cut from the paraffin-embedded samples were subjected to H&E staining and Masson trichrome staining as well as IHC staining for CD31, CD68, MyoD1, and desmin (all 1:200; Abcam); CD80 and CD163 (both 1:200; AbD Serotec); and human nuclear antigen (HuNu; 1:200; Millipore, Bedford, MA). The slides were imaged and analyzed using the Vectra multispectral slide analysis system. The details of using the ABC kit for IHC staining are described in section 2.2.6.

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.
