Total protein was extracted from cell lines or tissues using RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Total protein was quantified using the bicinchoninic acid protein kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Protein (40 µg per lane) was separated with 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto PVDF membranes (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Subsequently, the membranes were blocked with 5% skimmed milk in TBST for 1 h at room temperature. The membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with primary antibodies against: IL-6 (Abcam; ab239007, 1 : 1000), IL-1β (Abcam; ab118973, 1 : 1000), TNF-α (Abcam; ab219620, 1 : 1000), LC3 (Abcam; ab136668, 1 : 1000), p62 (Abcam; ab109330, 1 : 1000), Tim-1 (Abcam; ab5666, 1 : 1000) and GAPDH (Abcam; ab179467, 1 : 1000). Then, the membranes were incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Abcam; ab7356, 1 : 5000) for 1 h. Protein bands were visualized using the ECL kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). β-actin was used as the loading control. IPP 6.0 (Image-Pro Plus 6.0) was used for the densitometry analysis.

RIPA (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) was applied to isolate total protein. BCA (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to quantify the total protein. SDS-PAGE (10%) was used to separate proteins (40 μg per lane), and then proteins were transferred onto PVDF membranes (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against aggrecan (ABCAm; ab3778, 1:1,000), MMP-1 (ABCAm; ab118973, 1:1,000), MMP13 (ABCAm; ab219620, 1:1,000), PRDX3 (ABCAm; ab136668, 1:1,000), Cyclin D1 (ABCAm; ab16502, 1:1,000), STAT3 (ABCAm; ab109330, 1:1,000), p-STAT3 (ABCAm; ab6503, 1:1,000), and β-actin (ABCAm; ab179467, 1:1,000) after blocked with 5% skimmed milk for 1 h. After that, the membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies (HRP-conjugated, ABCAm; 1:5,000) for 1 h at room temperature. Protein bands were visualized using the enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). β-actin was used for normalization. Image-Pro Plus 6.0 was applied for densitometric analysis.

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.
