The samples were stained with corresponding secondary antibodies Alexa Fluor 594 or 488 (1:1000, Invitrogen). Nuclei were visualized with DAPI (1 μg/ml, BioFroxx, 1155MG010) for 5 min. To quantify the percentage of positive cells, a total of 8 fields, each with 100+ cells, were analyzed per condition. The primary cultured neurons and brain sections were double stained for MAP2/pS129, pS129/K80Hcy, Thioflavin S (ThS)/K80Hcy, TH/pS129, TH/K80Hcy, or GFP/TH.

Western blots for detergent-soluble and insoluble fractions were done as before.20 (link),32 (link),86 (link) In brief, thoraces were dissected from 20 male flies/sample and homogenized in ice-cold PBS with 1% Triton X-100 containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Homogenates were centrifuged at 14,000 rpm at 4°C and supernatants collected (Triton X-100 soluble fraction). The remaining pellet was washed in ice-cold PBS with 1% Triton X-100. The pellet was then resuspended in RIPA buffer containing 8M urea and 5% SDS, centrifuged at 14,000 rpm at 4°C. The supernatants (Triton X-100 insoluble fraction) were collected and analyzed on 4–20% SDSPAGE with anti-ubiquitin (Cell Signaling Technologies P4D1, #3936) and anti-Ref(2)P/p62 (Abcam #178840) antibodies.

Following treatments, INS-1E cells, rat or human islets were lysed for 30 min at 4°C in a cold lysis buffer as described above, then rapidly sonicated and centrifuged at 12,000 g for 20 min. Supernatants were denatured by boiling them in Laemmli's sample buffer, normalized for protein content by a BCA assay, and equal amounts of proteins (25 μg of protein/lane) resolved by 10% SDS-PAGE. After immunoblotting on nitrocellulose membranes, membranes were cut up into 3 or 4 pieces according to the molecular weights profile, in order to observe simultaneously different proteins on the same blot. Each piece was incubated with primary then secondary antibodies, and proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection, as previously described [15] (link). Band densities were quantitatively analyzed by Image J (NIH, USA) and normalized to actin, used as our loading control.

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.
