Skeletal muscle and fibroblast homogenates were obtained according to previously described methodologies.30 (link) 30–40 μg (S1–S3) and 20 μg (S4) of whole-cell protein extracts were separated by SDS polyacrylamide (12%) electrophoresis and then wet transferred to polyvinyl difluoride (PVDF) membranes. For S4, a 4%–12% gradient gel was used. Immunological detection of proteins was carried out with the following primary antibodies: C1QBP (ab24733, Abcam), β-actin (A1978, Sigma), α-tubulin (ab7291, Abcam), and OXPHOS complex-specific antibodies (NDUFS3 [ab14711, Abcam], NDUFB8 [ab110242, Abcam], NDUFA9 [MS111, Molecular Probes], SDHA [459200, MitoSciences], SDHB [ab14714, Abcam], UQCRC2 [ab14745, Abcam], COXI [ab14705, Abcam], COXII [ab110258, Abcam], COXIV [ab14744, Abcam], and ATP5A [ab14748, Abcam]).

Total proteins were extracted using radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer. Protein concentration was assessed with a Bio-Rad DC protein assay (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). Proteins were separated by electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels. The same amount of protein (μg) was loaded in each lane. After electrophoresis, the proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride or nitrocellulose membrane and subsequently subjected to immunoblotting analysis using appropriate antibodies. The amount of loading was further determined using a western blotting housekeeping protein (lamin A, 1:5000 dilution). Using a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody, protein bands on the blots were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescent western blot detection reagent. Antibodies including anti-tubulin (Abcam, ab7291), anti-LDHB (Abcam, ab75167), anti-complex I (Abcam, ab110242), anti-complex II (Abcam, ab14714), anti-complex III (Abcam, ab14745), anti-complex IV (Abcam, ab14705), anti-complex V (Abcam, ab14748) were purchased from commercial company (Abcam, Cambridge, UK).

Cryosections, 8‐μm thick, were cut and mounted on Superfrost Plus slides (J1800AMNZ, Thermo Scientific). Standard techniques were applied for enzyme histochemical analyses of COX, SDH and combined COX‐SDH [16 ]. For immunohistochemical studies of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex, cryosections were fixed in 4% formaldehyde at 4°C for 10 min, washed in Tris‐buffered saline‐Tween 20 (TBS‐T) for 10 min, permeabilised in a graded methanol series (70% 10 min, 95% 10 min, 100% 20 min, 95% 10 min and 70% 10 min) and washed in TBS‐T for 5 min. For the study of MHC‐class I (HLA‐ABC), the cryosections were fixed with acetone. The tissue sections were processed in a Dako Autostainer using the EnVision FLEX DAB+ Substrate Chromogen System kit and incubated with the following primary antibodies for 1 h: anti‐NDUFB8 (complex I, ab110242, Abcam, UK, 1:100), anti‐SDHB (complex II, ab14714, Abcam, 1:500), anti‐MTCO1 (complex IV, ab14705, Abcam, 1:2000), anti‐VDAC1 (porin, a mitochondrial marker, ab14734, Abcam, 1:2000) and anti‐human HLA‐ABC (M0736, clone W6/32, Dako, 1:1000). These antibodies to subunits of complex I, II and IV of the respiratory chain have been well characterised and demonstrated to be reliable tools in studies on mitochondrial myopathies [17 (link), 18 (link), 19 (link)].

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.
