The liver tissues were homogenized with lysis buffer containing a protease inhibitor cocktail. The homogenates were centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 20 min at 4°C. After the supernatant was collected, the protein concentration was determined using the Bio-Rad protein assay kit (Bio-Rad, Irvine, CA, USA). An equal amount of proteins were resolved on 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA). The membrane was incubated with 5% skim milk for 50 min at room temperature and then washed with PBS-T. The membrane was incubated with a primary antibody overnight at 4°C and then washed with PBS-T. The primary antibodies used were: β-actin (1:1,000; Cell Signaling, Beverly, MA, USA), NF-κB p65 (1:500, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), iNOS (1:500, Merk, Kenilworth, NJ, USA), COX-2 (1:1,000, Cell Signaling, Beverly, MA, USA), IL-1β (1:500; Bioss Antibodies, Boston, MA, USA), SOD (1:500; Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, USA), catalase (1:500; Santa Cruz), and GSH-Px (1:500, Santa Cruz).

The sections were stained with the following primary antibodies for the IHC analyses: IL-1β, IL-6, RANKL, and Cathepsin K (Bioss, Woburn, MA, USA) (1:400 dilution). After deparaffinization and rehydration, sections were treated with 3% hydrogen peroxide (Abcam) for 10 min to quench the endogenous peroxidase activity, followed by the incubation with normal goat serum to block the non-specific binding for 30 min at room temperature. Primary antibodies with different specific concentrations were applied to the sections and incubated overnight at 4 °C. The following day, the slides were incubated with the biotinylated secondary antibody for 30 min using the VECTASTAIN Elite ABC Rabbit IgG Kit (Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA, USA). Subsequently, the prepared VECTASTAIN ABC reagent was applied to the slides and incubated for another 30 min. Sections were stained with 3,3’-Diaminobenzidine (DAB) (Abcam) and counterstained with hematoxylin.

Proteins were extracted from RAW264.7 cells using radioimmunoprecipitation (RIPA) buffer (Yazyme, Shanghai). Protein concentration was determined by BCA protein detection kit (Biyuntian, Shanghai). SDS-PAGE was used to separate proteins from different samples. After transferring the separated proteins to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Bio-Rad, CA, USA), the PVDF membranes were blocked with protein-free fast blocking solution (Yazyme, Shanghai) for 15 min. Blocked PVDF membranes were then incubated in diluted primary antibody for 12 h at 4°C. The dilution ratios of different antibodies (Boaosen, Beijing) were as follows: β-actin (1 : 1000), NF-κB-p65 (1 : 1000, Bioss), p-NF-κB-p65 (1 : 1000, Bioss), IL-1β (1 : 500, Bioss), IL-6 (1 : 500, Bioss), and TNF-α (1 : 500, Bioss). Next, the PVDF membrane and diluted secondary antibody were incubated for 1 h at room temperature. Finally, proteins on PVDF membranes were imaged using enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) solution (GlpBio, USA), and protein bands were processed using ImageJ to detect protein expression levels.

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.
