Protein Expression Analysis of HUVECs

HUVECs were lysed on ice with RIPA buffer (Sigma-Aldrich) supplemented with protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktails (Roche, Germany). After the cell lysate was centrifuged at 16,000g for 10 min at 4 °C, solution A and solution B were calculated and prepared, and the total protein concentration was determined by the Bio-Rad protein assay. Then the cell lysate was boiled at 105 °C for 10 min to denature the protein. Next, the protein extracts were electrophoresed on an SDS-PAGE gel and transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane. Then, the membrane was blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin at 26 °C for 1 h, and incubated with each primary antibody overnight against ICAM-1 (Affinity, AF6088), IL-8 (Affinity, DF6998), MCP-1 (Affinity, DF7577), IL-6 (Affinity, DF6087), HIF-1α (Novus, NB100-105), JMJD1A (Proteintech, 12835-1-AP), and β-actin/GAPDH (Proteintech, 66009-1-lg/60004-1-Ig) as the loading control. After adding 5% BSA horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies to the membrane, it was incubated slowly at 25 °C for 120 min, and exposed via enhanced chemiluminescence. Quantification of the intensity of the protein bands were performed with ImageJ.

Whole-protein extracts were obtained with sonication and separated on 10% SDS-PAGE and then were transferred onto PVDF membrane (Millipore, USA). Blocked with TBST (pH 7.5) containing 5% BSA, the membranes were incubated within primary antibodies against MCP1 (1 : 1200, DF7577, Affinity), iNOS (1 : 800, AF0199, Affinity), Arg1 (1 : 800, DF6657, Affinity), IL-1β (1 : 800, AF5103, Affinity), phosphorylated NF-κBp65 (1 : 1000, 3039, CST), NF-κBp65 (1 : 1000, 8242, CST), PPARγ (1 : 600, 2435, CST), HO-1 (1 : 1000, AF5393, Affinity), Nrf2 (1 : 1000, AF0639, Affinity), SOD1 (1 : 1000, AF5198, Affinity), the endogenous control β-actin (1 : 1000, 4970, CST), and GAPDH (1 : 1000, 3683, CST) at 4°C overnight. The membranes were then incubated in HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1 : 3000, 7074, CST) for 1 h at room temperature. We used the ECL Western Blot Kit (Thermo Scientific Pierce) to examine the bands and scanned them using a LAS4000 analyzer (GE Healthcare). The immunoblot density was examined by ImageJ and normalized by β-actin or GAPDH.

Protein Expression Analysis via RIPA Extraction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Protein extraction was performed using the protease inhibitor-contained radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (R0010; Solarbio, Beijing, China), and the concentration was measured using the BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The protein sample was separated using freshly prepared SDS-PAGE, electrotransferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes, and then probed with primary antibodies. Next, the membrane was re-probed with goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:10,000, ab6721; Abcam), and the immunoblots were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagents. Additionally, the gray values of the target protein bands were quantified by employing the Image Pro Plus 6.0 software (Media Cybernetics, USA), with GAPDH used for normalization. The primary antibodies used were the following: anti-HDAC1 antibody (1:2,000, ab7028; Abcam), anti-KLF5 antibody (1:2,000, ab137676; Abcam), anti-IKBα antibody (1:1,000, ab32518; Abcam), anti-p65 antibody (1:1,000, ab16502; Abcam), anti-p-p65 antibody (1:1,000, ab97726; Abcam), anti-VCAM-1 antibody (1:2,000, ab134047; Abcam), anti-ICAM-1 antibody (1:1,000, ab7815; Abcam), and anti-MCP-1 antibody (1:1,000, DF7577; Affinity Biosciences, USA). All western blot tests were conducted with technological triplicate to obtain sufficient data for further analysis.

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.
