CD14 monocytes from 10 PBMC and 12 IHMC donors were isolated as described above (PBMC: n = 5 male, 5 female; IHMC: n = 4 male, 8 female). Cells were lysed with RIPA Buffer with Protease Inhibitors (Thermo Scientific) according to manufacturer description. Cell lysate was run on a 12% reducing acrylamide gel and transferred to a PVDF membrane. The membrane was blocked for 90 minutes with MilliQ water with 5% skim milk. TOLLIP (Biolegend) and actin (BD Biosciences) staining was done 1:1000 and 1:10,000, respectively, in TBST with 2% BSA for 1 hour. Secondary staining with HRP conjugated anti-murine IgG at 1:2000 (Biolegend) in TBST with 2% skim milk was done for 1 hour. TOLLIP and actin staining was measured using ECL detection reagents (Bio-Rad) and imaged with a ChemiDoc Imaging System (Bio-Rad).

After indicated treatments, RIPA buffer with protease inhibitors (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to HUVECs. Thereafter, equal amounts (about 80ug) of total protein samples were separated though 4-20% SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (Merck Millipore) using electroblotting. The membranes were blocked with 5% non-fat milk at the room temperature for 2 h and then incubated overnight at 4 °C with anti-Ph-p38 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #4511), anti-p38 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #9212), anti-Ph-NF-κB p65 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #3033),anti-NF-κB p65 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #8242),anti-VWF (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #65707), anti-IL-6 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #12153), anti-TNF-α (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #6945),anti-MCP-1 (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #81599) and anti-GAPDH (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #5174) primary antibodies. The membranes were washed next day and then incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech #7074) for 2 h at the room temperature. Finally, an enhanced chemiluminescence system (GE Healthcare) was used to visualize the protein bands. The protein levels were presented as fold change relative to the expression of control. All Western assays were performed in duplicates or triplicates and all experiments were repeated at least three times.

Mitochondrial Function Profiling in Neurons

Primary rat neurons or human i3Neurons were plated on Seahorse XFp plates (Agilent) at a density of 40,000 cells/well, then either treated with 2DG or transduced with codon-optimized lentiviruses as described in previous sections. 48 h after 2DG treatment or 4 days after transduction, the Seahorse Extracellular Flux assay was performed using the Seahorse XF Mini instrument (Agilent) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. During the assay, the cells were treated sequentially with each of the following mitochondrial toxins: oligomycin (1.5 μg/ml), FCCP (3 μM), and antimycin (1 μM) (all Cayman Chemical). Immediately after the assay, the cells were lysed with RIPA buffer with protease inhibitor (Thermo Scientific). The lysates were analyzed for total protein content using the Pierce BCA protein assay (Thermo Scientific). Extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) and oxygen consumption rate (OCR) values were then normalized to total protein.

On the day following the final day of behavioral testing, a subset of mice from Experiment 1 (n=23 HAP; 15 LAP3) were euthanized by cervical dislocation and brains were rapidly extracted. Bilateral punches of the dorsal striatum were extracted from a single 2mm coronal slice and rapidly frozen using liquid nitrogen. Western Blots were run to identify levels of CBi receptors following the method of Kasten et al. (2017) (link). Briefly, the tissue samples were homogenized in RIP A buffer with protease inhibitor (1ml of RIP A buffer containing lOOul of 10X PI and lOul of 0.1M PMSF) (Thermo Fisher). Sample load was calculated using a Bio-Rad Protein Assay kit. Primary antibody (Anti-Cannabinoid Receptor 1, Rabbit polyclonal to Cannabinoid Receptor 1, Abeam) was added to the PBS buffer (5% nonfat milk in 1x PBS with 0.1% Tween 20) and a secondary antibody was added at a 1:5000 dilution (IRDye 800 CW Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L), LI-COR). The image was then scanned from membrane with a CLx Odyssey scanner. B-actin was used as the reference (primary β-actin mouse monoclonal antibody, secondary antibody IRDye 680RD Donkey anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), LI-COR).

Overexpression of circMYC in MDA-MB-231 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After 1 day with overexpression of circMYC, the RIPA buffer with protease inhibitor (Thermo Scientific) from Boston BioProducts was used to harvest protein lysates from the transfected MBA-MD231 cells. The cell lysate was centrifuged at 13,000g for 5 min followed by the removal of precipitates. The supernatant was subjected to BCA protein assay to determine the protein concentration. For western blot analysis, 30 μg of protein was used.
The transfected cells were harvested, and the RNAs were purified at day 4 via the TRIzol™-chloroform extraction. For one well in a six-well plate, 500 μL of TRIzol™ was added into the well to lyse cells and stabilize RNAs, followed by addition of chloroform. The upper layer of the phenol-chloroform was used for column-based RNA purification (RNeasy from Qiagen). One microgram of total RNA was used for cDNA synthesis by iScript™ cDNA synthesis kit from Bio-Rad, which contains both oligo dT and random hexamers. The levels of circMYC were detected by the following divergent primers which detect only circularized MYC transcript using RT-qPCR: F 5′-CATCAGCACAACTACGCAGC-3′ and R 5′-TCCAGCAGAAGGTGATCCAG-3′. 18s rRNA was used as internal control: F 5′-GTAACCCGTTGAACCCCATT-3′ and R 5′-CCATCCAATCGGTAGTAGCG-3′. For the cell proliferation assay, WST-1 from Sigma Aldrich was used from days 1, 2, 3, and 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.
