BMM were treated for 24 h with 100 ng/ml LPS, after which the cells were washed twice with PBS and lysed in ice-cold Nonidet P-40 (NP-40) lysis buffer (50 mM Tris–HCl pH7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM NaF, 1 mM Na3PO4, 10 % glycerol, 1 % NP-40). After a 10 min incubation on ice the lysates were collected and boiled in sample buffer containing DTT. Samples were thereafter analyzed by SDS-PAGE. All proteins of interest were separated on 12 % polyacrylamide SDS gels. Proteins were transferred to 0.2 μm nitrocellulose membranes using the Trans-blot Turbo transfer system (Biorad). Nitrocellulose membranes were subsequently blocked in 5 % (w/v) non-fat milk in Tris-buffered saline (TBS) and incubated with CX3CR1 (Santa Cruz) and anti-α-tubulin (Cedarlane) primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C, followed by horse radish peroxidase-labelled secondary antibodies (Bio-Rad) for 1 h. Proteins were visualized with an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) detection system (Thermoscientific) and quantification of signal was performed using intensity measurements in ImageJ software.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-NSUN2 [17] (link) and anti-METTL1 (ProteinTech Group, Chicago, IL, USA) antibodies were used to detect endogenous tRNA modifying enzymes. Monoclonal anti-Xpress (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and anti-α-tubulin (Cedarlane Laboratories, Burlington, Ontario, Canada) antibodies were also used.

CD40 Signaling in Macrophages

CD40flflLysMcre and CD40flfl BMDMs were cultured as described above, treated for 10 min or 24 h with FGK45 (30 µg/ml), IFN‐γ (5 ng/ml) and LPS (100 ng/ml) and subsequently lysed in RIPA lysis buffer. Protein concentrations were determined using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Equal amounts of protein samples were loaded on to a SDS polyacrylamide gel and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Bio‐Rad). After blocking with 5% BSA in PBS containing 0.05% Tween‐20, blots were incubated overnight with anti‐CD40 (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) and anti‐α‐tubulin (Cedarlane, Burlington, ON, Canada). Blots were then washed and incubated with the appropriate HRP‐conjugated secondary antibody (1:800; Thermo Scientific) and visualized using the SuperSignal West Pico Plus Chemiluminescent Substrate kit (Thermo Scientific).

Membrane Protein Deglycosylation and Western Blotting

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Brain membrane proteins were prepared from P60 to 90 mice as described.41 (link) Complete protease inhibitors (Roche Diagnostics) were added to all solutions at twice the recommended concentration to minimize protein degradation. Deglycosylation of membrane protein samples, where indicated, was performed using PNGaseF (New England BioLabs Cat. #P0704S) as previously described.17 (link) For western blotting, 50–80 µg aliquots of membrane protein were separated by sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and processed for western blotting with anti-β1intra antibody (1:1000) (Cell Signaling Technologies 13950) or anti-NaV1.1 Na+ channel antibody (K74/71) (1:200) (NeuroMab 75-023) as previously described.22 (link) Anti-α-tubulin (1:1000) (Cedar Lane) or anti-transferrin receptor (TfR) (1:200) (Invitrogen H68.4 13-6800) antibodies were used as loading control, as indicated. Immunoreactive bands were detected using Supersignal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate (Therma Scientific #34076) and imaged using an iBrightFL1000 system (Invitrogen). Immunoreactive signals for the deglycosylated bands were quantified using iBright analysis software (Invitrogen) and normalized to the level of α-tubulin for each sample.

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.
