HEK and Nomi EVs were boiled at 95 °C for 10 min and the concentration was determined using Pierce BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific Pierce, Rockford, IL,USA). Then 25 μg of each sample was resolved by electrophoresis on 4–12% SDS-PAGE in Bis-Tris Plus (Thermo Scientific Pierce, Rockford, IL,USA) at 120 V. Next, the proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (PVDF) using the Invitrogen iBlot 2 Dry Blotting System. Membranes were blocked by incubation in 5% non-fat milk powder in 0.1% Tween 20 in Tris buffered saline (TBS-T) and incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibody against HSP-70 (1:500 Santa Cruz Biotechnology, D1519), Nanoluc (1:500, Promega, N700A), RFP (Thermo Fisher, MA5–15257) at 4 °C overnight. Then, the membranes were washed 3 times with TBS-T for 10 min and incubated with a secondary antibody (1:2500) at RT for 1 h. Membranes were then washed with 3 times TBS-T for 10 min. Bands were visualized by Pierce ECL Western Blotting Substrate (32106) in the Azure Biosystems C300 imaging equipment.

BMDMs were lysed with RIPA buffer and the whole-cell protein lysates were separated on pre-cast Bolt 12% Bis-Tris Plus gels (Invitrogen, NW00127BOX) and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. Membranes were subsequently probed using the relevant primary (histone H3, H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K9me2) and secondary antibodies (anti-IgG) and imaged using the Odyssey Fc Imager (Li-Cor). Images of blots were analysed with ImageJ to calculate the relative optical density (ROD = area/percentage). ROD was then standardized to the untrained/media control samples: adjusted ROD values.

Thylakoids were loaded onto a pre‐cast gel [4–12% T (w/v) Bis‐Tris Plus, Invitrogen] based on their chlorophyll content. After electrophoresis, the proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane and stained with Ponceau S solution [0.1% (w/v) Ponceau S in 5% (v/v) acetic acid]. The stained membranes were imaged using a LAS 4000 Image Analyzer (ImageQuant Luminescent) under digital imaging (exposure time: 1/60 s). Afterward, the membranes were blocked with 10% (w/v) milk in TBST (20 mM Tris, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.1% Tween 20) for 1 hr and were incubated with different primary antibodies (all from Agrisera, Sweden) overnight in the dark at 4°C. The primary antibodies included: PsaA (AS06172), PSAG (AS204368), PSAK (AS04049), LHCA1 (AS01005), PsbA (AS10704), PsbC (AS111787), LHCB1 (AS01004), PSBS (AS09533), PetA (AS06119) and ATPC (AS08312). The membranes were washed with TBST for 4× 10 min and then incubated with the secondary antibody (goat anti‐rabbit IgG) for another hour. After washing with 4 × 5 min and 2 × 30 min to get rid of the unbound secondary antibody, the membranes were developed for chemiluminescence (SuperSignal West Pico, Thermo Scientific) using a LAS 4000 Image Analyzer. Densitometric analysis of the images was performed using the software ImageJ.

Microsomal membrane fractions (50 μg/well) were loaded on a 4-12% Bis-Tris Plus or 10% Bis-Tris Plus gel (Invitrogen, USA) followed by gel electrophoresis at 130 V for 90 min. Resolved proteins were electroblotted onto a 0.45-μm protran nitrocellulose membrane (GE Healthcare, USA) at 12 mV for 60 min.

Membranes were incubated in anti-GAPDH (1:500 dilution, Acris, USA), anti-TRPM4 [38 (link)] (1:100, ab578), and anti-Calnexin (1:200, ab1039) antibodies at 4 °C for 24 h. Membranes were washed three times for 10 min in TBST and were then incubated in horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit antibody (1:50000, GE Healthcare, USA) at room temperature for 2 h. Membranes were washed two times for 10 min in TBST and once for 10 min in TBS (50 mM TRIS-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.5). Afterwards, membranes were incubated in SignalFire Elite ECL (Cell Signaling, USA) for 1 min followed by the detection of chemiluminescence using digital imaging (GE Healthcare, ImageQuant LAS 4000 mini). Protein expression levels were measured by densitometry analysis using the ImageJ software.

Cells of interest were harvested, and protein extracts were obtained after cell lysis in RIPA buffer supplemented with a cocktail of protease inhibitors. Protein concentrations were determined using the Thermo Fisher BCA assay (Pierce). Equal protein amounts were run on Bolt 4%–12% Bis-Tris Plus gels (Invitrogen) and transferred to polyvinylidene membranes by electroblotting. Membranes were blocked with 5% nonfat dried milk/TBST buffer (Blotto) for an hour, incubated for an hour with primary antibody, washed with TBS and 0.05% Tween (TBST), and incubated again with secondary antibody in Blotto solution. Detection was performed via the LumiGLO Peroxidase Chemiluminescent Substrate Kit (Cell Signaling). The same membranes were re-probed after stripping to control for equal loading using β-actin as a control. Antibodies: E2F1: anti-hE2F1 3742S (1:1000, Cell Signaling); Rb: anti-Rb clone G3–245 (1:250, BD Biosciences); β-actin: anti-β-actin 8H10D10 (1:1000, Cell Signaling); Secondary antibodies: anti-Rabbit or anti-Mouse Ig-conjugated with HRP (1:1000, Cell Signaling).

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.
