SARS-CoV-2 RBD dodecamer mRNA was transfected into HEK293T cells by Lipofectamine™ 2000 according to the manufacturer's instructions (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 11668027, Waltham, MA, USA). Supernatants and cell lysates were obtained, and the expression of SARS-CoV-2 RBD dodecamer antigen in vivo was detected by SARS-CoV-2 RBD protein detection ELISA kit (Vazyme, 7E510D1, Nanjing, China) and Western blotting (WB). Briefly, cells were lysed with Cell Lysis Reagent (Sigma–Aldrich, C3228-50 ML, St. Louis, MO, USA) containing protease inhibitor (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 78,430, Waltham, MA, USA), denatured at 100 °C for 10 min, separated by electrophoresis on 10% SDS-PAGE gels, and then transferred to nitrocellulose transfer membranes (GE Amersham Biosciences, 10-6000-01, Pittsburgh, PA). Membranes were incubated with RBD primary Abs overnight (Proteintech Europe, 67758-1-Ig, Deansgate, UK), and then incubated with corresponding secondary Abs conjugated to HRP (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, sc-2005, Dallas, TX, USA). Finally, the relative expression levels of protein were detected using ECL reagents (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, sc-2048, Dallas, TX, USA) and quantified by Quantity One software [Bio-Rad Laboratories, Quantity One®1-D, Hercules, CA, USA)].

Cultured cells were plated on 8-well chamber slides for 24 to 48 h. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized for 5 min at room temperature with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS, followed by blocking for 1 h with 5% skimmed milk. Cells were stained with rabbit polyclonal antibodies for S100A14 and S100A16 for overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with FITC-labeled secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. To observe filamentous actin, cells were stained with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin (Molecular Probes). The slides were mounted in mounting medium containing DAPI and analyzed using an inverted fluorescence microscope and by laser scanning confocal microscopy. Cellular proteins extracted with Cell lysis reagent (Sigma) were analyzed by Western blotting. Equal amounts of proteins were electrophoresed by standard SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and were then transferred onto Immobilon membranes (Merck-Millipore). The target proteins were detected by immunoblotting using S100A14 and S100A16 antibodies (diluted 1/1,000) according to standard protocols using the ECL Advance Western Blotting Detection Kit (GE Healthcare).

After treatment, cells were washed twice with cold PBS and then pelleted, and then cell lysis reagent (Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the cell pellet for protein extraction. Protein concentration was determined by bovine serum albumin (BSA) assay using BSA as the reference, and the absorbance of the reacted product was measured at wavelength of 540–595 nm. Samples were boiled for 3 min before loading onto 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel. After electrophoresis, the gels were electro blotted onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Merck Millipore, Whitehouse Station, NJ, USA). The antibodies used were as follows: anti-Bcl-2 rabbit polyclonal antibody (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti-Bax rabbit polyclonal antibody (Abcam), anti-β-actin rabbit polyclonal antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Dallas, TX, USA), and anti-rabbit IgG HRP (Abcam). The blot was visualized with an enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) kit (Merck Millipore) and exposed to ECL Hyperfilm.

The expressions of insulin, GLUT2, PGC-1α, GCK, and G6Pase were determined by western blot and GAPDH was employed as control. Pancreas was lysed using cell lysis reagent (Sigma) and phosphatase inhibitors (Sigma) and lysed by Tissue Homogenizer (Bertin Technologies, France). The crude lysate was transferred to new Eppendorf tubes. Each sample was added to 20 μL 2x sample loading buffer (0.125 M of 5 M Tris-HCl, Amresco; 20% glycerol, Usb; 4% of 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate, Amresco; 1%  β-mercaptoethanol, Amresco; 0.2% of 0.05% (w/v) bromophenol blue, Sigma) and boiled for 5 min before loading. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to immobilon P membrane (Millipore), and probed with different antibodies as indicated. All antibodies were purchased from Cell Signaling (Beverly, MA). The results were visualized using ECL kit (Abcam) and observed by GeneGnome machine (Syngene).

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.
