Sample sections (5μm) were deparaffinized and rehydrated before commencing the immunofluorescence assay. Slides were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and blocked for nonspecific binding using 10% goat serum and 5% FBS in PBS (Millipore) for 2 hours at room temperature. NDRG1 (ab124689, Abcam) or PKCδ (ab182126, Abcam) primary antibodies were incubated at 1:100 dilutions overnight at 4°C. A secondary antibody coupled to Alexa Fluor™ 488 or Cy3 was added to each slide for 1 hour at room temperature. Samples were mounted using a DAPI solution containing ProLong Gold antifade and mounting medium (Invitrogen). Fluorescence images were taken by an Olympus BX51 microscope equipped with a 40× lens objective (Olympus America Inc.). Images were captured with an Olympus DP-6 digital camera and processed with TissueFAXS Viewer.

Total protein samples were extracted from penile tissues. The penile tissues were homogenized by precooled tissue lysates and centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 15 min at 4°C, and the supernatants were obtained. Protein concentrations were determined using a BCA protein assay kit (Solarbio, Beijing, China). Protein lysate of equal concentration was loaded on 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) at 80 V for 30 min and 120 V for 60 min, and then electrotransferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (Bio-Rad, CA, U.S.A.). The membrane was blocked for 1 h at room temperature with 5% skimmed milk powder. Then, membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against CaSR (1:1000; ab18200, Abcam), PLC (1:5000; ab76155, Abcam), PKCδ (1:5000; ab182126, Abcam), JNK (1:2000; ab208035, Abcam), p38 (1:1000, ab170099, Abcam), Bax (1:2000, ab32503, Abcam), GAPDH (1:5000, 60004-1-1g, HuaBio, Hangzhou, China) at 4°C overnight, followed the membranes were washed and incubated with the appropriate horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 h. Finally, the protein bands were visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (Clinx Science Instruments, U.S.A.).

Immunoprecipitation and Immunoblotting of PKC Isoforms

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Freshly isolated or cultured vessel segments were prepared for immunoprecipitation, one‐dimensional protein gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting as described previously (Shi et al. 2017a). The primary antibodies used were: mouse anti‐PKCε (dilution 1:500; sc‐1681; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), mouse anti‐PKCθ (dilution 1:500; sc‐1680; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), mouse anti‐PKCη (dilution 1:500; sc‐136 036; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and rabbit anti‐PKCδ (dilution 1:1000; ab182126; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). Rabbit anti‐TRPC1 antibody (1 μg mL−1) was generated by GenScript (Piscataway, NJ, USA) using peptide sequences from a previously characterized putative extracellular region (Xu & Beech, 2001). Visualization were performed using anti‐rabbit and anti‐mouse secondary antibodies conjugated to IRDye 800RD or IRDye 680CW (dilution 1:10 000; Li‐Cor Biosciences, Cambridge, UK) as appropriate and the Odyssey Infrared Imaging System (Li‐Cor Biosciences). Protein band intensities were measured using Image Studio software (Li‐Cor Biosciences) and normalized to smooth muscle actin (dilution 1:2000; #ab5694; Abcam) when quantified.

Pancreatic tissue sections (4 μm thick) were deparaffinized in xylene for 15 minutes, rehydrated using ethanol gradients and antigen retrieved by microwaving at 95°C for 5 minutes in 10 mM sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked by immersing the slides in peroxidase blocking buffer (3% hydrogen peroxide) for 10 minutes at room temperature. Further, slides were incubated with blocking buffer (5% BSA) for 1 hour at room temperature. Primary antibodies for PKC-δ (1:100, ab182126; Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and NF-κB p65 (1:100, sc-372; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) were then added and incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. Slides were rinsed in TBS and then, incubated with secondary antibody (k4003, polymer HRP-labelled anti rabbit; DAKO, Glostrup, Denmark) for 20 minutes at room temperature. Slides were again washed in TBS and visualized by incubating with diaminobenzidine substrate for 3 minutes at room temperature. Slides were then washed in distilled water and nuclei was counterstained using Mayer’s hematoxylin for 1 minute followed by two rinses in distilled water. Further, slides were dehydrated by serial immersion for 1 minute each in 70% ethanol and 95% ethanol followed by 2 minutes each in 100% ethanol and two changes of xylene. Finally, slides were mounted using Pertex mounting medium and coverslipped.

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.
