At the indicated time points medium was removed from BMM. Cells were lysed in 150 μl Nu PAGE LDS Sample Buffer (Life Technologies) by vigorous pipetting and scraping of the cells. Cell lysates were heated at 95°C and immediately placed on ice prior to loading onto 4–12% SDS NuPAGE gradient gels (Life Technologies). Western blots were generated from SDS-NuPAGE gels as previously described [11 (link)]. Blots were probed with antibodies to phospho-T180/Y182 p38, p38, phospho-T334 MK2 (27B7), MK2, and β-actin (13E5), (all from Cell Signaling Technologies). RNA was purified using RNeasy kits (Qiagen), cDNA generated using the Superscript VILO kit (Life Technologies) and real-time quantitative PCR was run using primer/probe sets (Table 1) (all from Life Technologies) and an ABI 7900HT (Life Technologies). Input RNA was normalized to GAPDH, and fold change of the indicated genes as compared to untreated, uninfected controls was quantified as ΔΔCT. The mRNA half-life (t1/2) was calculated as −ln2/m, where m is the slope of the line fit on a semi-logarithmic plot of mRNA concentration as a function of time using least-squares regression as previously described [12 (link)].

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.
