Exosome pellets were lysed in lysis buffer (8 M Urea/2.5% SDS containing 5 μg.ml−1 leupeptin, 1 μg.ml−1 pepstatin, and 1 mM phenylmethylsulphonyl fluoride) as previously described [13 (link)]. The Bradford method was used for protein quantification and Western blot was conducted as previously reported [12 (link)]. The following primary antibodies were used: Alix, HSPA8, MET, and GAPDH (Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., MA, USA), Tsg101, CD63 (Abcam, CA, UK), and PTGR1 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis). Blots were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescent agents (Forevergen biosciences, GZ, China).

Prostate cancer PC-3 and 22RV1 cell lines, and benign prostate BPH1 line were obtained from ATCC (Manassas, VA) as described.16 (link),17 (link) C4–2 cell line was obtained from UroCor Inc (Oklahoma City, OK).18 (link) All cell lines were tested for authentication at Genetica DNA Lab (Burlington, NC) and were used within passages of 15–25. Cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 media containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin in a 5% CO2-humidified atmosphere at 37°C. Biotin labeling of Alternol was carried out in house. Succinate assay kit and enzymatic function assay kits for PDHC, KGDHC, FH, and MDH2 were obtained from BioVision (Milpitas, CA). Docetaxel was obtained from Cayman Chemical (Ann Arbor, MI). Alternol was obtained from Sungen Bioscience as reported14 (link) (Shantou, China).

Western Blot Protocol for Protein Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 0.1% sodium deoxycholate) containing proteinase inhibitor cocktail (MedChemExpress, Monmouth Junction, NJ, USA). The protein samples were electrophoresed through 10% SDS polyacrylamide gels and transferred onto polyvinyl difluoride membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). After blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin at room temperature for 1 h, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight, and then incubated with secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 h. Immunoreactivity was detected with enhanced chemiluminescent autoradiography (Millipore). Chemiluminescence was determined using the AI600 System (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, Buckinghamshire, UK). The antibody against GAPDH (60004-1-Ig, dilution 1:1000) was purchased from Proteintech. Antibodies against HSPA8 (8444, dilution 1:1000) and DEK (29812, dilution 1:1000) were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA).

Protein lysates were electrophoresed on a 7.5% Mini-Protean TGX stain- free gel (BioRad) and then transferred onto Immobilon-FL membranes (Millipore) and blocked with Odyssey Blocking Buffer (LiCOR). Membranes were cut in half below the high-molecular weight markers. Primary antibodies included mouse anti-LRRK2 clone N241A/34 (1: 2000, Antibodies, Inc.), rabbit anti-LRRK2 antibody MJFF2 (1:2000, Abcam), Ser(P)-935 (1: 2000, Abcam), Ser(P)-1292 (1:2000, Abcam) HSPA8 (1:5000, Cell Signaling), phospho-T73-Rab10 antibody (1:1000, MJF-R21, Abcam), and total Rab10 (1:1000, clone D36C4, Cell Signaling). Secondary antibodies were IRdye 680LT donkey anti-mouse and IRdye 800CW donkey anti-rabbit (both 1:10000, LiCOR). Membranes were scanned using a LiCOR CLx with 685-nm and 785-nm lasers and band intensities were quantified using the LiCOR-Odyssey system.

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.
