The following antibodies were used: anti-Beclin-1 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany, No. sc-48381), anti-Atg12 (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA, No. 2010), anti-Atg7 (Abcam, Cambridge, USA, No. ab53255), anti-LC3b (Cell Signaling Technology, No. 3868), anti-p62 (Becton Dickinson, Heidelberg, Germany, No. 610832), anti-Tubulin (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA, No. T8203-25UL), anti-Lamin B1 (Abcam, No. ab16048), anti-cleaved PARP (Cell Signaling Technology, No. 5625), anti-CyclinD1 (Cell Signaling Technology, No. 2926) and anti-pH2AX (Cell Signaling Technology, No. 9718).
In order to quantify protein expression, we used ImageJ® (by Wayne Rasband at NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA) for densitometric analysis as described previously [49 (link)]. In brief, band density was measured relative to the untreated control and then adjusted to tubulin as loading control. For analysis of isolated cytosolic and nuclear fractions, tubulin and Lamin B1 were utilized as loading controls and to demonstrate proper separation.

The cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 0.2 mM EDTA, 10 mM Na3VO4, 10% glycerol, protease inhibitors) and centrifuged at 15,000 g for 15 min at 4°C. Then SDS loading buffer was added to the samples, and the samples were boiled for 10 min before the SDS-PAGE electrophoresis.

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.
