Proteins were extracted from colon tissue samples using RIPA lysis buffer (Solarbio life sciences, Beijing, China). After denaturation, the protein extracts were separated by 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) for 1 h, then transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore, MA, USA) for 2 h. PVDF membranes were probed overnight at 4 ℃ using the corresponding primary antibodies: anti- GPR43, anti-NLRP3, anti-Caspase-1, anti-IL-8 and anti-IL-1β (GeneTex, CA, USA).

THP-1 cells were harvested using radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer and protein concentration of each sample was determined using the Bio-Rad DC protein assay kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hertfordshire, UK). Equal amounts of protein were loaded on a 12% acrylamide gel and electrophoresed. The protein was then transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane using the Trans-Blot Turbo Transfer System (Bio-Rad Laboratories) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The membrane was blocked for 1 h at room temperature with a 10% blocking solution (dry milk powder in TBST [tris-buffered saline + 0.1% Tween 20]). After blocking, the membrane was then incubated with anti-IL-1β (GeneTex, California, USA) or anti-β-actin (GeneTex) overnight at 4 °C before being washed with TBST and then incubated for 1 h at room temperature with the corresponding peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Agilent Technologies, California, USA).

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.
