Each of the WT-APP and the 3xK-APP expressing cells were harvested and lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (Tris-HCl, pH 7.4 50 mM, NaCl 150 mM, Triton X100 1%, Sodium deoxycholate 0.5%, SDS 0.1%) [36] (link). For APP dimer/monomer detection, we utilized 3–8% Tris-Acetate gels (Biorad) and for CTF detection we used 10% Bis-Tris gels (Biorad). The lysates were subsequently used for immunoblotting and detection of full-length APP and carboxyl terminal fragments (CTFs). APP C-terminal specific polyclonal antibody A8717 (1∶500) (Sigma-Aldrich) was used for the APP and CTFα/β detection. For recombinant substrate detection, we used 4–12% Bis-Tris gels (Biorad) and detected with monoclonal 6E10 antibody (1∶1000) (Covance, Emeryville, CA, USA). The blots were developed using an Odyssey infrared scanner (LiCor Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA).

Whole EDL and soleus muscles were weighed and homogenised in ice-cold lysis buffer as described previously [37 (link)] and protein concentration determined by bicinchoninic acid protein assay (Pierce Biotechnology (Rockford, USA)). For measuring the abundance of PPARα, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes I-V, peroxisome proliferative activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC1α), CPT1b and β-tubulin proteins, 16–20 μg of muscle protein was subjected to SDS-PAGE using precast 10% Bis-Tris gels or 4–12% Bis-Tris gels (Bio-Rad Laboratories Pty Ltd (Gladesville, Australia)) and transferred to PVDF membranes. Membranes were incubated overnight in primary antibody; PPARα (Abcam (Cambridge, UK)), 1:500; OXPHOS proteins (MitoSciences (Eugene, USA)), 1:250; PGC1α (Abcam), 1:1000; CPT1b (Alpha Diagnostic International Inc (San Antonio, USA)), 1:1000; and β-tubulin (Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, USA)), 1:2000. Bound primary antibodies were detected with sheep anti-rabbit (1:2500, Chemicon International (Billerica, USA)) or goat anti-mouse alkaline-phosphatase linked antibody (1:2000, Millipore (Billerica, USA)). Membranes were developed with chemifluoresence substrate (ECF), scanned by Typhoon Imager (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences (Rydalmere, Australia)) and were quantified using ImageQuant software (Molecular Dynamics).

Total protein concentration was determined by using BCA Protein Assay Kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Samples were electrophoretically separated using 10% Bis–Tris gels or 3–8% Tris–acetate gel (Bio‐Rad, Richmond, CA), according to the molecular weight of the target molecule, and then transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Bio‐Rad). They were blocked with Odyssey blocking buffer for 1 h; and then incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. After three washing cycles with T‐TBS, membranes were incubated with IRDye 800CW or IRDye 680CW‐labeled secondary antibodies (LI‐COR Bioscience, NE) at 22°C for 1 h. Signals were developed with Odyssey Infrared Imaging Systems (LI‐COR Bioscience). Primary antibodies used in this paper are summarized in Table 1.

Infected RBCs were enriched by gelatin flotation and incubated for 15 min with either 0, 10 or 100 μg ml−1 of trypsin (Baruch et al., 1996 (link)). Following three washes in PBS containing protease inhibitors, cells were either incubated with pooled hyperimmune serum (1:5) or proteins extracted with 1% Triton X-100 (v/v) followed by 2% SDS. Extracts were resuspended in sample buffer, heated, separated on 10% Bis-Tris gels (BioRad), and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (iBlot, Life Technologies). Detection of PfEMP1 was performed by incubation with a guinea pig anti-ATS antibody (1:400) followed by anti-guinea pig alkaline phosphatase (AP)-conjugated secondary antibody. Equal protein loading was verified with the mAb1C11 anti-Hsp70 antibody (1:2000) and revealed with NBT/BCIP following incubation with an anti-mouse AP-conjugated secondary antibody.

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.
