For experiments shown in Figs. 2, 3, 5, and 6, desalting buffer (0.25 M sucrose, 10 mM Tris-HCl, and 0.05 mM CaCl2, pH 7.2) was prepared. Detached cells were rinsed with PBS and lysed in 0.5% NP-40 (Sigma) in desalting buffer containing protease-inhibitor cocktail set III (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA) (1:100). The sample was rotated overnight at 4 °C, and then the supernatants were obtained by centrifugation. Protein contents of the lysates were determined by the BCA protein- quantification reagent (Pierce, Waltham, MA). For experiments shown in Fig. 7, protein lysates were prepared using CytoBuster protein-extraction buffer (Millipore, Burlington, MA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Whole bone marrow cells from different genotypes of mice, lymphoblastoid cell lines, and human cell lines were lysed using a cytobuster protein extraction buffer (Millipore) with protease inhibitor cocktail (GenDEPOT). Standard immunoblotting analysis was performed using anti-GFP (1:1,000, Novus, NB600–308), anti-DNMT3A antibody (1:1,000, Santa Cruz, H-295; 1:1,000, Abcam, ab16704), anti-DCAF8 antibody (1:500, Sigma-Aldrich, HPA027381), anti-DDB1 antibody (1:1,000, Bethyl Laboratories, A300–462A), and anti-GAPDH antibody (1:2,000, Millipore, MAB374).

Quantifying Macrophage Cytokine Secretion

E. coli LPS-stimulated TNFα and IL-1β secretion from peritoneal macrophages isolated from WT or Spock1-Tg mice were measured using DuoSet Ancillary Reagent Kit2 (DY008; R&D Systems), mouse TNF-alpha DuoSet ELISA (DY410-05; R&D Systems) and mouse IL-1beta/IL-1F2 DuoSet ELISA (DY401-05; R&D Systems) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, California, USA). For quantification, peritoneal macrophages after stimulation were collected using 100 µL of CytoBuster Protein Extraction Buffer (Merck) for protein extraction. Protein concentration was measured using the Quick Start Bradford Protein Assay Kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories) and 4× LeammLi Sample Buffer (Bio-Rad Laboratories) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

Quantifying ROS in Zebrafish Larvae

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The production of ROS in zebrafish larvae was determined using membrane-permeable fluorescent dye 2’,7’-dichlorodihydrofluorescin diacetate (Molecular Probes DCFH-DA; Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) according to the method of Zeng et al. [23 (link)] with a minor modification. Three replicates of twenty larvae that had been treated with 0.3, 1.3, 5, 20 and 80 ppb EZA for 3 days were homogenized in CytoBuster protein extraction buffer (Merck, Germany). And the homogenate was centrifuged at 15,000×g at 4 °C for 20 min. The supernatant was incubated for 30 min with DCFH-DA in PBS (pH7.4). The fluorescence intensity was measured using a microplate reader (SpectraMax M5, Molecular Devices) with excitation and emission at 485 nm and 530 nm, respectively. The ROS levels were estimated based on a DCF (dichlorofuorescein) standard curve, and expressed as an arbitrary unit (μg DCF /mg protein) and as a percentage of a control.

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.
