BMDMs or lungs were harvested at designated time points and homogenized in PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100 (phosphatase and protease inhibitor cocktail added). After centrifugation the supernatants were used for immunoblotting. Total protein content in the supernatant was measured using a BCA protein assay kit (Thermofisher, NY) to ensure that equal amounts of proteins were loaded onto 10% SDS-PAGE gels. Proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membrane according to the protocol provided by Bio-Rad. Appropriate primary antibodies against mouse NLRP6 (Sigma, MO), phospho-MLKL (Abcam, MA), RIP3, RIP1, P47phox, P67phox, gp91phox, phospho-p38 MAPK, phospho-JNK, phospho-Stat3, caspase-8, GAPDH (Cell Signaling, MA), caspase-1 (Adipogen), and gasdermin-D (Santa Cruz, CA) were added to the membrane and incubated overnight at 40 C. Appropriate secondary antibodies were used, and the films were developed using ECL plus western blot detection system (ThermoFisher, NY). IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1α, and IL-6 were measured in BALF supernatants by ELISA according to the manufacturer’s protocol (eBioscience, CA).

Whole cell lysates (WCL) were prepared in lysis buffer containing 0.1% Triton, dithiothreitol, and protease inhibitor cocktail tablets (CPIC) (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN) for 30min on ice and then spun at 16,000xg for 5min at 4°C. WCL samples were probed for caspase-3 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), caspase-9 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), caspase-8 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), caspase-1 (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), ICAM-1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), and VCAM-1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX). Nuclear (Nuc) and cytoplasmic (Cyto) protein fractions were prepared by using the CelLytic NuCLEAR extraction kit (Millipore Sigma, Merck KGaM, Darmstadt, Germany) and probed for cyclinB1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), γH2AX (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), and NF-κB-p65 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK). Protein extraction from serum-free supernatant media using an adopted methanol-mediated extraction protocol (Shi et al. 2012 (link)) was used to probe in conjunction with WCL or Nuc/Cyto fractions for pro-inflammatory molecules Gasdermin D (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), HGMB-1 (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), IL-1α (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), IFNβ (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX), and IL-1β (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA).

Anesthetized mice were successively perfused intracardially with 0.9% sodium chloride and 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA). Mouse brains were soaked in 4% PFA for 12 h and then dehydrated by sucrose solutions with an ascending concentration gradient of 10, 20, and 30% at 4 °C. After fixation in optimal cutting temperature compound (Sakura Finetek, USA), the brains were sliced into 15-μm sections. Brain sections and neuron coverslips were fixed with 4% PFA for 20 min and then permeabilized with blocking buffer comprising 5% goat serum, 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 0.3% Triton X-100 at room temperature for 1 h. The samples were incubated overnight with primary antibodies against LDLR (1:200, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA), NeuN (1:500, Abcam, UK), GFAP (1:500, Abcam, UK), Iba-1 (1:100, Abcam, UK), NLRP3 (1:200, Abcam, UK), ASC (1:200, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA), Caspase-1 (1:200, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA), and Gasdermin D (1:200, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, USA) at 4 °C, followed by incubation with appropriate Alexa Fluor-488/594-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) and DAPI. Immunofluorescence images were captured with a microscope (Olympus MX51, Japan). The positive signals were analyzed using ImageJ software.

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.
