Kidney samples were homogenized with RIPA lysis buffer and protein was extracted from the sample by centrifuging at 10 000 rpm for 15 min at 4°C. BCA method was used for the estimation of total protein in the sample as per the instructions in the kit. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was used to separate protein from the supernatant solution equivalent to 50 μg of protein. Protein was poured on the membrane and then tris buffer was used to block binding to the membrane for 60 min. Rabbit polyclonal anti-NF-κB p65 (1: 1000), anti-inducible NO synthase (iNOS) [1: 1000], anti-Akt (1: 1000), and anti-pAkt (1: 1000) antibody (Proteintech Group, Inc, Wuhan, China) were incubated with the blots at 4°C for overnight. Later, secondary rabbit anti-mouse IgG horseradish peroxidase (HRP) antibody (Proteintech Group Inc, Wuhan, China) was used to incubate for 60 min at room temperature after washing the membrane with TBST. An ECL detection system was used for development and detection of blots.

IHC was performed following a previously described method [30 (link)]. The following antibodies were used: anti-CD34, anti-VEGF, anti-DNMT1, anti-TRAF1, and anti-NF-κB p65 (Proteintech, Wuhan, China). Staining intensity was scored manually by two independent experienced pathologists as follows: 0 = no staining, 1 = weak staining, 2 = moderate staining, and 3 = strong staining. The percentage of positive cells was also assessed according to four scores: 1 (0-10%), 2 (11-50%), 3 (51-80%), and 4 (81-100%). The final IHC score was calculated by multiplying the intensity score by the percentage of positive cells. CD34 antibody was used to stain vascular endothelial cells, and then the microvessel density (MVD) was calculated. The field of maximal CD34 expression was found in tumor tissues. Within this field, the area of maximal angiogenesis was selected, and microvessels were counted at 200× magnification. Low MVD was indicated by scores from 0 to 3. High MVD was indicated by scores ≥4 [31 (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.
