Protein Expression Analysis by Western Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total proteins were extracted using radioimmunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer containing proteinase inhibitors (No. 04693159001, Roche Diagnostics, Switzerland), and phosphatase inhibitors (No. 04906845001, Roche), separated by sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes, and analyzed by immunoblotting. Primary antibodies against the following proteins were used: TH (66334-1-Ig, Proteintech), protein kinase A (PKA) (AF5450, Affinity (China)), p-HSL (AF8026, Affinity), hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) (AF6403, Affinity), p-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) (AF4001, Affinity), p38 MAPK (AF6456, Affinity), PGC1α (AF5395, Affinity), UCP1 (NB100-2828, Novus Biologicals), and GAPDH (60004-1-Ig, Proteintech). The antibodies were diluted 1:1,000 with PBS. The membranes were then incubated with a peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (BS13278, Bioworld (China); SA00001-1, Proteintech; SA00001-3, Proteintech), and antibody-specific signals were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence and quantified using the Automatic Chemiluminescence Imaging System (Complex 2000; Nanjing PuoAoXin Biotechnology, China).

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.
