Protein samples from total cell extracts were washed with ice-cold phosphate-buffered solution (PBS). Protein samples were lysed in Pro-Prep buffer containing a phosphatase inhibitor cocktail solution (iNtRON Biotechnology, Seongnam-si, Korea) for 30 min on ice followed by centrifugation at 13,000× g for 20 min at 4 °C. Equal amounts of protein from each supernatant were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and were transferred onto polyvinylidene membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Then the blots were probed overnight at 4 °C with monoclonal antibodies against Islet 1 (Cat. no. ab86472), HB9 (Cat. no. ab79541), or ChAT (Cat. no. ab178850) (1:500, all from Abcam, Cambridge, UK) followed by the corresponding secondary antibody. The blots were developed using enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (WestSave Gold Western Blot Detection kits; AbFrontier, Seoul, Korea). The intensity of each band was assessed by densitometric scanning (LAS-3000; Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan). The expression level of each protein was normalized with the respect of GAPDH levels (No. LF-PA0018; 1:1000, pRb, AbFrontier). The protein levels were quantified using Multi Gauge software (version 3.0; Fuji Photo Film, Kanagawa, Japan).

Brain Tissue Isolation and Protein Analysis

For brain tissue preparation, mice were deeply anesthetized with Zoletil (12.5 mg/kg) and Rompun mix (17.5 mg/kg) administered intraperitoneally. Mice were perfused transcardially with heparin dissolved in PBS (pH 7.2). The dissected brain tissues were frozen at -80 °C for Western blotting. Tissues were homogenized with total RNA and protein isolation kit (NucleoSpin® RNA/Protein #740933.50, Macherey-Nagel, Dűren, Germany). The protein samples were quantified with Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay Kit and 50 μg protein sample were used for each Western blot. The primary antibodies were applied in the following concentrations: anti-GFAP (rabbit, 1: 1,000; Dako #Z0334), anti-Iba1 (rabbit, 1:300; Wako #NB100-1028), anti-EAAT1 (rabbit, 1:1,000; Santacruz # sc-15316), anti-EAAT2 (rabbit, 1:1,000; Cellsignaling #3838), anti-Cx43 (mouse, 1:1,000; Santacruz #sc-59949), anti-PSD95 (mouse, 1:2,000; Thermo #MA1-046), anti-NeuN (mouse, 1:1,000; Millipore #MAB377) anti-GAPDH (rabbit, 1:10,000; Abfrontier #LF-PA0018). Secondary antibodies were conjugated with horse-radish peroxidase (HRP) (1: 10,000, Invitrogen). The HRP signals were visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL, Abfrontier #LF-QC0101, Gyeonggi-do, Korea) substrate.

Sciatic nerve tissues were washed with ice-cold PBS and lysed in Pro-Prep buffer containing a phosphatase inhibitor cocktail solution (iNtRON Biotechnology, Seongnam-si, Korea) for 30 min on ice. After centrifugation at 13,000× g for 20 min at 4 °C, equal quantities of protein from supernatants were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) and were electrophoretically transferred onto polyvinylidene membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The blots were then probed overnight at 4 °C with antibody against v-Akt Murine Thymoma Viral Oncogene (Akt; No. 9272) or Phospho-Akt (p-Akt; Thr308; No. 9275) or extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK; Phospho-p44/43 MAPK (Erk1/2) (Thr202/Tyr204); No. 9101) (1:500, all pRb, Cell signaling) followed by the corresponding secondary antibody. The blots were washed and developed using enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (WestSave Gold Western Blot Detection kits; AbFrontier, Seoul, Korea), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Band intensities were assessed by densitometric scanning (LAS-3000, Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan). The p-Erk protein expression level was normalized to the expression of GAPDH (No. LF-PA0018; 1:1000, pRb, Ab Frontier, Korea). The results were quantified using Multi Gauge software, version 3.0.

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.
