Total RNA was isolated using TRIzolTM (Invitrogen), and cDNA was synthesized using 2 μg of total RNA with SuperScript® III First-Strand Synthesis System, according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Invitrogen). Real-time PCR was performed on LightCycler 480® (Roche), using SYBR Green I Master Mix. The primer set sequences are provided in Supplementary Table S1.
Total cell lysates were prepared, and western blot analyses were conducted as described previously [32 (link)]. Antibodies are listed in Supplementary Table S2. Signals were visualized with Western Lighting Plus-ECL Chemiluminescent Reagents (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA), and the intensity of the resulting bands was quantified by ImageJ software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA).

Whole-cell extracts were prepared using 2X SDS buffer supplemented with fresh protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Equal volumes of protein were fractionated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. The following antibodies were used: Akt, mTOR, p-mTORS2448, p-mTORS2481, ribosomal protein S6, phospho-ribosomal protein S6S235/236, Rictor, Raptor, TSC2, p-TSC2S939, NFκB p50, NFκB p65, IκBα, p-IkBαS32, and IKKα (purchased from Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA). β-actin antibody was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Anti-rabbit secondary antibodies were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Santa Cruz, CA). Blots were developed using Western Lighting Plus ECL chemiluminescent reagents (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA) and Syngene G:Box Imaging System (Frederick, MD). Band quantification was performed using Syngene Genetools gel analysis software and band intensities normalized to β-actin intensity.

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.
