Whole cell protein extracts were prepared in RIPA lysis buffer (Sigma) containing a protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche) and PMSF 10 µg/mL, separated on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel (30 µg/lane), then transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Freiburg, Germany) by electro-blotting. Blots were blocked in 1:1 Odyssey buffer in PBS and developed in Odyssey buffer in 1x PBS/Tween 20. For detection of specific proteins, blots were incubated with the primary antibody against DAT/Slc6a3. β-Actin was used as a loading control. Secondary antibodies were conjugated with IRDye 680 or 800 (1:10,000; LI-COR Biosciences) and blots were analyzed on the Odyssey Infrared Imaging System (LI-COR Biosciences). The ratio of the respective protein band to the loading control was used for semi-quantitative analysis (Image Studio Light®, Odyssey).

Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer (25 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% Triton X-100). Samples were separated by SDS–PAGE and transferred to cellulose membrane. Transferred membranes were probed with primary antibodies diluted in LI-COR (Lincoln, NE) blocking buffer (with 0.05% Tween-20). Secondary antibodies were rabbit or mouse IR-Dye 680 or 800 (LI-COR). Membranes were imaged using a LI-COR Odyssey scanner. Boxes were manually placed around each band of interest, which returned near-infrared fluorescence values of raw intensity, with intralane background subtracted using LI-COR Odyssey 3.0 analytical software. The fluorescence value for each protein of interest was normalized to the in-lane value of β-actin, and this normalized ratio was averaged from duplicate or triplicate lanes. Data were analyzed using the t test. Measures were considered significant when p < 0.05. Error bars are SEM.

The total protein lysate was collected by homogenization of flash frozen spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, skeletal muscle, or spinal cord in RIPA lysis buffer (Cell Signalling). Protein concentrations were determined using the Bradford assay (Bio-Rad). Protein extracts were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and examined by immunoblot, as previously described (76 (link)) with modified blocking conditions where Odyssey blocking buffer (Li-Cor 927-40000) replaced 5% milk. Revert Total protein stain (Li-Cor 926-11010) was used as per the manufacturer’s protocol. Primary antibodies used were as follows: Anti-Smn (BD Transduction, 610647 - 1:2000), CD3 (DAKO #2018-11 - 1:1000), CD19 (Abcam, ab197895 - 1:1000) and alpha-tubulin (Abcam, ab4074 – 1:1000). Secondary antibodies used were IRDye 680 or 800 (Li-Cor - 1:10000 to 1:20000). Signals were detected with Odyssey CLx (Li-Cor). The results were normalized to total protein or tubulin.

OBSC sections (4-6) were pooled and lysed with Tris buffer and centrifuged at 21,000g to remove the nuclear fraction as we previously reported (48 (link)). Protein concentrations were measured using a Pierce BCA assay kit with the manufacturer’s instructions (ThermoFisher Scientific). Samples were diluted in RIPA and DTT containing reducing buffer (Pierce TM Cat. # 39000) to a final amount of 40 μg protein per well. Protein samples were separated on a 4–15% Ready Gel Tris-HCL gel (BioRad) and transferred onto PVDF membranes (BioRad). PVDF membranes were incubated at 4°C overnight with primary antibody. The following day, secondary antibody incubation (Li-Cor IRDye® 680 or 800) was performed, and membranes visualized using the LiCor Odyssey™ imaging system. Values for proteins of interest were normalized to beta-actin expression for each sample.

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.
