Protein samples were mixed with sample buffer (250 mM Tris-HCl, at pH 6.8, 10% sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), 30% Glycerol, 5% β-mercaptoethanol, and 0.02% bromophenol blue) and boiled for 5 min. Proteins were separated by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The membrane was blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 h at room temperature, which was followed by incubation with the primary antibody overnight at 4 °C. After washing with PBST (PBS and 0.25% Tween-20), the membrane was incubated with a secondary antibody conjugated with horseradish peroxide (Millipore) for 1 h. The membrane was washed with PBST and detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) reagent kit (Millipore) followed by exposure to Amersham Imager 600 imagers (GE, Pittsburgh, PA, USA). ImageJ software (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/index.html, NIH, Bethesda, MA, USA) was used to analyze the relative quantification of the ECL signals.

Purified influenza virus was mixed with reducing sample buffer (Pierce) and heated up to 95°C for five minutes to denature the virus. Total denatured protein (5 μg) was loaded into each lane of an 8–16% Criterion TGX Precast Gel (BioRad) and run according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane (Millipore) in 1X transfer buffer with constant voltage, 100 V, for one hour at 4°C. Following transfer, the PVDF membrane was cut into strips and blocked with 5% milk in TBST for one hour. Each strip was incubated with either 15 μg IgG monoclonal antibody or 3 μg IgM monoclonal antibody diluted in 3 mL of the blocking buffer for one hour, followed by three washes with TBST. The strips were incubated with anti-mouse IgM (Jackson ImmunoResearch) or IgG (Southern Biotech) secondary antibody conjugated with HRP in 5% milk in TBST for one hour. After three washes with TBST, SuperSignal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate (Thermo Scientific) was added to the strips and images were captured using an Amersham Imager 600 imagers (GE Healthcare Life Sciences).

Live single cells that were frozen in 90%FBS+10%DMSO described in the tissue harvest section were thawed and pooled to perform the Mouse Cytokine Antibody Array (ab133993, Abcam), according to the manufacture’s protocol. Single cells were lysed and 250μg protein were used on each membrane. This assay only measured the intra-cellular cytokines as the excreted cytokines were washed off during the single cell prep. Membranes were developed by SuperSignal West Femto (34095, Thermo Scientific) and scanned on Amersham Imager 600 imagers (29083463, GE). Image was quantified by ImageJ.

Comprehensive Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation Workflow

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For Western blots, cells were pelleted and lysed directly with denaturing gel loading buffer (Tris-HCl 125 mM, pH 6.8, glycerol 20% vol/vol, SDS 4% vol/vol, β-mercaptoethanol 10% vol/vol, and bromophenol blue). The primary and secondary antibodies are described in Table S6. Western blots were developed by chemiluminescence (Pierce Super Signal West Dura; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and imaged using an Amersham Imager 600 imager (GE Healthcare Life Sciences). Bands were quantified with Gel-Pro Analyzer 4 (Meyer Instruments).
For immunoprecipitations, cells were serum starved for 48 h, and proteins were extracted with lysis buffer (20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 50 mM KCl, and 1 mM MgCl2) with 0.5% digitonin and protease inhibitor (cOmplete EDTA-Free; Roche). Insoluble components were removed by centrifugation at 20,000 g. Primary antibodies preadsorbed to protein G-sepharose beads (GE Healthcare) were added to the cell extract, and the mixture was incubated for 2 h at 4°C. After centrifugation, beads were washed with lysis buffer supplemented with 0.1% digitonin before elution in denaturing gel loading buffer for SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and Western blot analysis.
Isolation of mRNA and quantitative mRNA analysis was performed as previously described (Jonassen et al., 2008 (link)) using the primers tabulated in Table S7.

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.
