The total proteins in the MDBK cells were treated with the serum-free medium. BVDV and BVDV + MT were extracted 36 h post-infection using the BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Co. Ltd., Shanghai, China) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. The extracted proteins were separated by reducing SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and transferred onto a PVDF membrane blocked with 5% nonfat milk in Tris-Tween-buffered saline buffer for 1.5 h. The membranes were then incubated with primary antibodies [IκB, p-IκB, p65, and p-p65 (all 1:1000 from Abmart, Shanghai, China) and E2 (1:1000)] and secondary antibodies [Goat anti-mouse IgG (1:5000, SA00001-1; ProteinTech Group, Rosemont, IL, USA) and Goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:5000, SA00001-2; ProteinTech Group, USA)] conjugated with horseradish peroxidase. The gray values for each band were quantified using ImageJ software and normalized to those of GAPDH (1:5000, 10494-1-AP; ProteinTech Group, USA). E2 antibody was generated in rabbits and produced by our laboratory.

The protein lysates were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Invitrogen, Waltham, United States). The membranes were blocked in 5% BSA for 1 h and incubated with following primary antibodies: TNF-α (1:1,000, Santa Cruz, California, United States), P65, IκB, and p-IκB (1:1,000, Abmart, Shanghai, China), E-cadherin (1:1,000, Affinity, Nanjing, China), SMAD4 (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, United States), α-SMA (1:1,000, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany), FN (1:1,000, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom), TGF-βRII, SMAD2/3, p-SMAD2/3 (1:1,000, Elabscience, Wuhan, China), and β-actin (1:1,000, Santa Cruz, California, United States) overnight at 4°C. The membranes were then washed three times with TBST for 10 min and incubated with secondary antibody (1:5,000, ZSGB-BIO, Beijing, China). The protein bands were visualized using ECL reagents.

RIMVECs were seeded, divided into groups, and treated as described in the in vitro experiment paragraph. Total proteins were extracted using the radio immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) cell lysis buffer for 10 min, and protein concentration was determined using the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein detection kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, China). A standard western blot protocol was performed, and the following primary antibodies were used overnight at 4°C: TLR4 (1:800) (ABclonal, Wuhan, China), NLRP3 (1:1000) (ABclonal), GSDMD (1:1000) (ABclonal), caspase-1 (1:1000) (ABclonal), ASC (1:1000) (ABclonal), NF-κB p65 (1:1000) (Abmart, Shanghai, China), p-NF-κB p65 (1:400) (Abmart), p-I-κB (1:1000) (Abmart), I-κB (1:1000) (Abmart), IL-18 (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences, Colorado, USA), IL-1β (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences), claudin-1 (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences), claudin-2 (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences), ZO-1 (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences), and β-tubulin (1:1000) (Affinity Biosciences) used as loading control, followed by the incubation with HRP (Horseradish Peroxidase)-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:5000) (ABclonal) for 1 h at room temperature. The blots were visualized using a Tanon 5200 chemiluminescence imaging system (Shanghai, China) and quantified using the ImageJ software (National Institutes of Mental Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).

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.
