Immunohistochemical Analysis of RanGAP1 in ALS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissue sections were cut from blocks of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded ALS tissue, obtained from Dr. John Ravits’ bank collection (control patient #83 and #65). The spinal cord sections of patients harboring TDP-43 mutations (Pt #284 and #203) as well as control #150 were obtained from the MRC London Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Bank (King’s College London) (see table below). Seven µm-thick tissue sections were stained with an antibody against RanGAP1 (ab92360) from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA). Slides were stained on a Ventana Discovery Ultra (Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ, USA). Antigen retrieval was performed using Tris–EDTA based cell conditioning solution (CC1) for 40 min at 95 °C. The primary antibody was incubated on the sections at 1:300 dilution for 32 min at 37 °C followed by UltraMap (Ventana) and DAB detection. Slides were rinsed, dehydrated through alcohol and xylene, and coverslipped. Imaging was performed on Nanozoomer slide scanner (Hamamatsu) at the UCSD microscopy core.

Western Blot Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl at pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.1% SDS, 1% NP-40, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, and 1 mM dithiothreitol) supplemented with protease inhibitors (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and incubated for 30 min on ice. After centrifugation at 18,800 g for 10 min, the protein concentration in the supernatant was determined using the BCA method. Equal amounts of protein were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in Tris/glycine/SDS running buffer. The separated proteins were transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane in Tris-glycine transfer buffer that was blocked with 3% Tris-buffered saline with Tween 20 (BSA-TBST) for 1 h at room temperature. The membranes were probed with primary RanGAP1 antibody (ab92360, Abcam) at a 1:500 dilution and HBG2 (ab137096, Abcam), GATA1 (ab181544, Abcam), and β-actin antibodies (HC201-01, TransGen Biotech, Beijing, China) at a 1:1,000 dilution in 3% BSA-TBST at 4°C overnight. The membranes were subsequently rinsed with TBST three times for 10 min each and incubated with a secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. Finally, the membranes were rinsed three times with TBST solution and imaged using an Image Quant ECL machine (Tanon 5200, Tanon, Shanghai, China).

Silencing βarrestin2 in HEK-293 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HEK-293 or HEK-293 T cells stably expressing the β 2 AR were transfected with either non-targeting control siRNA or siRNA targeting βarr2 purchased from Dharmacon GE Healthcare Life Sciences as described previously [5] . Early passage cells on 6-well dishes, at a confluence of 40-50% were transfected with 3.5 μg siRNA using Lipofectamine 2000™ in serum-free media. After 4 h, complete media was added to the transfected cells, and then grown for 48 h at 37 °C before conducting assays. Cells were serum starved for 1 h prior to stimulation with 1 μM isoproterenol for 20 min. After stimulation, cells were solubilized by adding 2×-SDS-sample buffer, followed by disruption by sonication. Equal amount of cell lysates were resolved on 10% SDSpolyacrylamide gels (ProtoGel, National Diagnostics). RanGAP1, βarrestins and GAPDH were detected by immunoblotting with rabbit monoclonal anti-RanGAP1antibody (Abcam ab92360, 1:1000), antiβarrestin (A1CT, 1:3000) and rabbit monoclonal anti-GAPDH (HRP conjugate, CST 3683, 1:1000) respectively.

Western Blot Analysis of Cellular Proteins

Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl at pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.1% SDS, 1% NP-40, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, 1 mM dithiothreitol) supplemented with protease inhibitors (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and incubated for 30 min on ice. After centrifugation at 18,800 ×g for 10 min, the protein concentration in the supernatant was determined. Equal amounts of protein were separated using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in a Tris/glycine/SDS running buffer. The separated proteins were transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane in Tris/glycine transfer buffer, which was then blocked with 3% BSA-TBST (Tris buffered saline with Tween 20) for 1 h at room temperature. The membranes were probed with primary RanGAP1 mouse monoclonal antibody (ab92360, Abcam) at a 1:500 dilution and HBG2 (ab137096, Abcam), GATA1 (ab181544, Abcam), and β-actin mouse monoclonal antibodies (HC201-01, TransGen Biotech, Beijing, China) at a 1:1000 dilution in 3% BSA-TBST at 4℃ overnight. The membranes were subsequently rinsed with TBST thrice for 10 min each and incubated with secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. Finally, the membranes were rinsed with TBST solution thrice and imaged using an Image Quant ECL machine (Tanon 5200, Tanon, Shanghai, China).

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.
