Following DEV-CSC infection DEF cells were treated with radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (RIPA, Beyotime, China) containing phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) at a ratio of 100 to 1 on ice. After 20 min of centrifugation, the total proteins were harvested and quantitatively analyzed using bicinchoninic acid (Beyotime Institute of Biotechnology, Nanjing, China). Each well of a 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gel were loaded with 50 µg of total protein, electrophoresed and then transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (PVDF; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). After blocking with 5% (w/v) nonfat milk, the proteins were incubated with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The next day, the proteins were labeled with a secondary antibody for 1 hr and the chemical signals were evaluated using the enhanced chemiluminescence detection kit (Beyotime) on the Tanon-5500 imaging system. The quantitative data were analyzed using Image J software. The primary antibodies used were as follows: CHOP (1:250; Abcam, Cambridge, UK, ab10444), GRP78 (1 µg/ml; Abcam, ab21685), ATF6 (1:300; Abcam, ab135707), and GAPDH (0.5 µg/ml; Abcam, ab37168). The secondary antibody was goat anti-mouse IgG H&L (1:1,000; Abcam, ab97040).

Cells were lysed by RIPA lysis (P0013B, Beyotime, China) supplied with PMSF and the lysates were quantitated by Bio-Rad DC Protein Assay kit (Ewell, China). The protein sample was separated using freshly-prepared SDS-PAGE, electrotransferred onto PVDF membranes, and probed with primary antibodies. After that, the membranes were re-probed with goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:10,000, ab6721, Abcam). Immunoblots were visualized with enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagents and captured under the SmartView Pro 2000 (UVCI-2100, Major Science, USA) microscope. Gray value of target protein bands was quantified using Image J software, with GAPDH used for normalization. Primary antibodies used: GRP78 (Abcam, ab21685, rabbit, 1:2000), IRE1 (Abcam, ab37073, rabbit, 1:1000), CHOP (Abcam, ab10444, rabbit, 1:1000), eIF2α (Abcam, ab169528, rabbit, 1:1000), cleaved-caspase3 (Abcam, ab32042, rabbit, 1:1000), caspase3 (Abcam, ab13847, rabbit, 1:500) and caspase 12 (Abcam, ab13847, 1:500).

Immunoprecipitation and Western Blot Analysis of Protein Interactions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunoprecipitation was performed on protein lysates from near-confluent cells. The cells were washed twice with ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and harvested by scraping in ice-cold lysis buffer containing 15 mM Tris (pH 8.0), 100 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (P2714, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Lysates were incubated on ice for 30 min, clarified by centrifugation at 4°C, followed by protein estimation using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Overnight immunoprecipitation with anti-DDIT3 (sc-793, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX) was performed using Dynabeads® Protein G (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) as per manufacturer instructions. Next, SDS-PAGE separation and western blot were performed using anti-FUS (sc-373698, Santa Cruz) and anti-DDIT3 (ab10444, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) for detection. The following Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA) antibodies were also used for western blot: anti-AKT (#2920), anti-phospho-AKT (Ser473) (#9271), anti-AXL (#4566) and PTEN (#9559). Antibodies of Abcam were used for western blot analysis of HDAC1 (ab19845), HDAC2 (ab32117) and HDAC3 (ab32369).38 (link)

Proteins were extracted from the rat heart tissues using RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime, Haimen, China). Protein concentrations were measured using a BCA protein assay kit (23227, Abcam). Post protein separation on 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate- polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), the separated protein was transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. The membranes were then blocked with 5% non-fat milk at 4 °C for 1 hour, and incubated with the following primary antibodies: DDIT3 antibody (ab10444, Abcam), cleaved caspase-12 antibody (#2202, CST, MA, USA), GADD34 antibody (ab131402, Abcam), BiP antibody (ab21685, Abcam), cleaved caspase-3 antibody (ab184784, Abcam), cleaved caspase-9 antibody (#9507, CST), IL-1β (205924, Abcam) p-ERK1/2 antibody (ab214362, Abcam), ERK1/2 antibody (ab17942, Abcam), P65 antibody (ab16502, Abcam), and p-P65 (phospho S536) antibody (ab86299, Abcam).

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.
