Heart tissue and primary rat cardiomyocytes were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer with 1% protease inhibitor (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). A BCA kit was used to determine the protein concentration in the supernatant (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). In total, ~50 µg heart tissue lysate or 20 µg cell lysate was used for 12% SDS-PAGE, and proteins were then transferred to an FL membrane (MilliporeSigma) at 4˚C for 1.5 h. After blocking with 5% non-fat milk powder (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology) at room temperature for 1.5 h, the following primary antibodies were added and incubated overnight at 4˚C: SOD2 (1:1,000), pro/cleaved caspase-3 (1:1,000), Bax (1:1,000), NOX2 (1:2,000) and Bcl-2 (1:1,000) were. Subsequently, HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary antibodies (1:10,000; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.; cat. no. 31460) were added and incubated at room temperature for 1.5 h. The western blotting results were analyzed using BeyoECL Plus (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology) and Image Lab software (version 5.2.1; Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.). The specific protein expression levels were normalized to that of GAPDH.

Protein samples were isolated using RIPA buffer (Sigma, R0278, USA) with PMSF, and concentrations determined via BCA assay (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, #A045-4-1, China). SDS-PAGE (10%) and subsequent wet transfer onto membranes (Milipore, GVWP02500, USA) preceded antibody incubations. Blocking utilized TBST with non-fat milk powder (Beyotime, #P0222, China), and detection was via enhanced chemiluminescence (Bio-Rad, #32106, USA). Antibodies against GDF15, β-actin, PI3K, AKT, cleaved caspase-3, Bax, N-cadherin, E-cadherin, vimentin, and GAPDH (all from abcam) were applied. GDF15 (1:1000, ab206414, abcam), β-actin (1:3000, ab5694, abcam), p-PI3K (1:2000, ab278545, abcam), PI3K (1:2000, ab302958, abcam), AKT (1:2000, ab238477, abcam), p-AKT (1:2000, ab81283, abcam), cleaved caspase-3 (1:1000, ab32042, abcam), bax (1:1000, ab32503, abcam), N-cadherin (1:2000, ab76011, abcam), E-cadherin (1:2000, ab40772, abcam), vimentin (1:1000, ab92547, abcam), GAPDH (1:3000, ab9485, abcam).

The mitochondria and cytoplasm of rat ventricular tissue and primary rat cardiomyocytes were separated according to the instructions of tissue or cell mitochondrial extraction kit (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). A BCA kit was used to determine the protein concentration thereafter. Then, ~30 µg heart tissue or cell lysate was loaded per lane onto 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, after which proteins were transferred to an FL membrane (MilliporeSigma) at 4˚C for 2 h. After blocking with 5% blocking protein powder (non-fat milk powder; Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology) at room temperature for 2 h, the following primary antibodies were added and incubated overnight at 4˚C: Cyt C (1:1,000), pro/cleaved caspase-3 (cat. no. 14220S/cat. no. 9664S; 1:1,000), cleaved caspase-9 (cat. no. 9507; 1:1,000), COX IV (cat. no. 4850; 1:1,000) and GAPDH (cat. no. 10494-1-AP; 1:5,000). Subsequently, HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary antibodies (1:10,000; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.; cat. no. #31460) were added and incubated at room temperature for 1.5 h. The results of western blotting were analyzed using BeyoECL Plus (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology) and Image Lab software (version 5.2.1; Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.). The specific protein expression levels were normalized to GAPDH or COX IV.

Western Blot Analysis of Key Proteins

The specific steps of Western blot were performed as described previously [33 (link)]. First, the radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (RIPA) was used to obtain proteins, followed by protein concentration assay using bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay kit (Beyotime, China). Next, proteins were then separated using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The separated proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene (PVDF, Bio-Rad, USA) membrane. Then, 5% nonfat milk powder (Beyotime, China) was used to enclose the membrane at room temperature for 1 h. After blocking, the primary antibodies were introduced to incubate overnight at 4°C. After incubation, TBST (Beyotime, China) was used to wash the membrane, which was then incubated at room temperature with secondary antibody for 4 h. Finally, ECL hypersensitive chemiluminescence kit was used for protein color development, and pictures were taken with the visualizer. The primary antibodies were sourced from Abcam (UK): rabbit anti-human WTAP (ab195380), FLNA (ab76289), LC3I/II (LC3B, ab51520), β-actin (ab8227), p62 (ab109012). The secondary antibody was goat anti-rabbit IgG (ab6721), which was purchased from Abcam (UK).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total protein was isolated from TNBC samples (tumour tissues, paired normal adjacent tissues and cell lines) using RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology). Total protein was separated by 10% SDS‐PAGE (25 μg protein per lane), and the protein was transferred with PVDF membrane (MilliporeSigma). Blocking of PVDF membrane was performed with 5% nonfat milk powder (Beyotime). To detect the expression of PKM2 protein in different conformations, the total protein extracted from the sample was not thermal denatured and was denatured using a non‐denatured gel sample loading buffer (Beyotime). Next, protein electrophoresis was performed using native PAGE running buffer (Beyotime). The PVDF membranes were probed at 4°C overnight with antibodies against METTL14 (1:1000; Abcam), PKM2 (ProteinTech Group, Inc.), DGCR8 (1:1000; Abcam), TRIM9 (1:1000; Abcam) and β‐actin (1:5000; Abcam). Finally, protein expression was analysed by chemiluminescence reagents (Hyperfilm ECL).

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.
