The frozen wing samples were ground and transferred to centrifuge tubes with RIPA/PMSF (Solarbio, China). The tubes with comminuted samples were incubated in ice for 2 h. The whole divided protein was collected by centrifuging at 4°C for 10 min (12000×g) and adjusted to almost the same protein level. Soluble protein with 4× sample loading buffer was separated on 8–12% SDS-PAGE gel and electrophoresed at 4°C. The protein was transferred onto NC membrane (Millipore Corporation, Billerica, MA, USA) by wet transfer after electrophoresis, then the NC membrane was blocked with 5% fat-free milk in TBST. The MC1R antibody (ab 180776, Abcam, UK), ASIP antibody (ab151033, Abcam, UK), and β-actin antibody (ab8227, Abcam) were incubated at 4°C overnight. The membrane was washed 3 times using TBST buffer, then hybridized with HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG for 2 h at room temperature. After washing 5 times with 1× TBST, the proteins of MCIR, ASIP, and β-actin were detected on the membrane with the ultra-sensitive horseradish from the catalase DAB color kit (Sangon Biotech, China). The bands on the membrane were scanned by a densitometric analysis system (Bio-Rad).

Treated or transfected cells were collected at indicated time points, followed by the extraction of whole protein using RIPA buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). Then, equal weight (40 µg) protein in each sample was separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and then transferred to NC membranes (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). After blocking in 5% non-fat milk for 2 h at room temperature, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against PPAR-γ or β-actin (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) overnight at 4℃.

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.
