Total protein was extracted from cerebral cortex of brain hemisphere. Briefly, brain tissue was homogenized in RIPA lysis buffer (CST) with further centrifugation at 14,000× g at 4°C for 30 min. Protein concentration in the supernatant was determined using the BCA assay kit (Bio-Rad). Equal amounts of protein were loaded on a SDS–PAGE gel. After being electrophoresed and transferred to a PVDF membrane, the membrane was blocked and incubated with the primary antibodies against Synapsin 1 (CST; 1:2,000), Post-synaptic density protein 95 (PSD95; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA; 1:2,000), Aβ (CST; 1:2,000), actin (Sigma; 1:6,000), or GAPDH (Abcam; 1:5,000) overnight at 4°C. The membrane was then incubated with fluorescence-labeled secondary antibodies (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 h at room temperature against light. After washing, the membrane was then scanned with the Odyssey CLx Imaging System. The data were analyzed with the NIH ImageJ software. The values in the figures represent relative density of the bands normalized to GAPDH/actin.

Protein Detection by Immunoblotting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunoblotting was performed using a standard protocol. Proteins were separated in NuPAGE (4–12%) Bis–Tris gels (Thermo Fisher) and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Bio-Rad). The target protein was detected by specific primary antibodies followed by secondary horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated antibodies (for less abundant proteins) (Sigma) or fluorescence-labeled secondary antibodies (for abundant antigens) (Thermo Fisher). For immunoblotting with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies, the signal was detected by the enhanced chemiluminescence method (ECL) using the Immobilon western chemiluminescent HRP substrate (Millipore), and recorded by a Fuji LAS-4000 image reader. The intensity of the detected protein bands was quantified by ImageGauge v3.0 software. For immunoblotting with fluorescence-labeled secondary antibodies, membranes were scanned using a LI-COR Odyssey scanner. The intensity of the protein bands was quantified by the LI-COR Odyssey v3.1 software.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C2C12 and C57 cells grown on glass coverslips were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at 4 °C for 20 min, blocked in 4% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) PBS and incubated with primary anti-sclerostin (ab63097, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom) anti-MyoD antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, USA) overnight at 4 °C. Coverslips were next washed with PBS and incubated with fluorescence-labeled secondary antibodies (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for 1 h at room temperature. Slides were mounted with a 10% DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) solution and were observed using a Nikon A1 confocal laser scanning microscope. The confocal serial sections were processed with ImageJ software to obtain three-dimensional projections and image rendering was performed using Adobe Photoshop CS 8.0 software (Adobe Systems, San Jose, CA, USA). All the images shown in this paper are representative of at least 3 independent experiments carried out under the same conditions.

Immunofluorescence on OCT of paraffin tissue sections or cells were performed as previously described (Ajay et al., 2014b (link); Ajay et al., 2012 ; Craciun et al., 2014 (link)). Briefly, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections were deparaffinized using xylene and followed by antigen retrieval using citrate buffer. For the OCT block from PFA-fixed tissue sections, PBS was added to the slides and antigen retrieval was performed using proteinase K treatment. For staining the cells, 4% PFA was used for fixation. Samples were permeabilized using 1% Triton X-100 for 15 min. Two percent normal sheep serum containing 5% BSA was used for blocking for 1 hour. Primary antibodies were incubated overnight at 4°C in five times diluted blocking buffer containing 0.1% Tween 20. After three washes of PBST (0.1% Tween 20), fluorescence-labeled secondary antibodies (Thermo Fisher Scientific) were added and incubated for 1 hour at room temperature. Slides were washed and mounted with medium containing DAPI (Vector laboratories). Three-to-five images were captured using 60X objective either on a Nikon Confocal Imaging system (Nikon C1 Eclipse, Nikon, Melville, NY) or Axio Imager A2m widefield microscope (Carl Zeiss, White Plains, NY).

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.
