Western-blot assays were processed to evaluate the expressions of NF-κB (p65) in cytoplasm and nucleus, p-IκBα, IκBα, and active caspase-3. Liver tissues were homogenized immediately after sacrifice to prepare the total protein, nuclear protein, and cytoplasmic protein using Nuclear-Cytoplasm Extraction Kit (Cell Signaling Technology, USA). Protein concentrations were detected by BCA kits (Thermo Scientific, Inc.), and Histone H3 (nuclear protein) and β-actin (cytoplasmic protein) were used as controls. After electrophoresis on 10% SDS-PAGE gels, the proteins were transferred onto the PVDF membrane. After being blocked with 5% skim milk, the membrane was incubated overnight with the primary antibody (Abcam, UK) at 4°C. Subsequently, the blots were washed with TBST, incubated with the secondary antibody at room temperature for 30 min, again washed with TBST, and developed with ECL Plus Western Blot Detection System (Amersham International plc., Buckinghamshire, UK).

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.
