Bradford DC protein assay (Bio-Rad, USA) was used to measure the concentration of protein lysates. Subsequently, 20–40 μg of protein was resolved on a 12% Bis-Tris polyacrylamide gel, electrotransferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, USA) and blocked with 5% nonfat-milk. Protein blots were immunostained overnight with primary antibodies at 4°C and for 1 hour with secondary antibodies at room temperature. Amersham ECL Western Blotting Detection Reagents (GE Healthcare) were used to visualize the protein signal.

Protein was extracted from the hippocampal tissue of the rats using a Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Protein Extraction kit (Pierce, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA). The protein concentration was determined by the Bradford DC protein assay (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). The proteins were then separated in 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane, which was then incubated with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 50 g/l skimmed milk at room temperature for 4 h. Then, the PVDF membrane was incubated with mouse anti-rat monoclonal NF-κB P65 (1:50 dilution) and mouse anti-rat monoclonal GAPDH (1:100 dilution) primary antibodies (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), respectively, at 37°C for 1 h. After washing with PBS three times, the PVDF membrane was incubated with the goat anti-mouse peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Abcam) at room temperature for 1 h. Chemiluminescent detection was performed using an ECL kit (Pierce Chemical, Rockford, IL, USA).

Total protein from each group was extracted and the protein concentration was measured using the Bradford DC protein assay (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). 25 μg protein from each sample was separated using SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (10 %) and blotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) filter membranes (Whatman). The membranes were blocked in 5 % skim milk for 1 h, washed four times with Tris-buffered saline containing Tween 20 (TBST) at room temperature and then incubated overnight at 4 °C with diluted primary antibodies (rabbit anti-human Cthrc1/TIMP-1/MMP-2/MMP-9 antibody, 1:500, Santa Cruz). Following extensive washing with TBST, membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 h (goat anti-rabbit IgG, 1:1000, Santa Cruz). After four 15 min washes with TBST at room temperature, immunoreactivity was visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence. GAPDH expression (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) served as an endogenous reference.

Overnight H. pylori B128 parental strain, ∆hpn, ∆hpn-2 and ∆hpn ∆hpn-2 mutants grown in BBß were diluted to OD600nm 0.2 in fresh BBß either without added nickel or with 10 μM NiCl2. Aliquots were taken after 4, 8 and 24 hours culture. Bacteria were pelleted and frozen. Immuno blotting was performed on crude extracts after cell lysis in 1% SDS pH 5 according to standard protocols. Protein amounts in the crude extracts were calibrated using the Bradford DC Protein Assay (Biorad) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a standard. 20 μg of total extracts were separated by 12.5% SDS-PAGE using the Criterion TGX Stain Free Any kD acrylamide gels (BioRad). Gels were blotted on a nitrocellulose membrane (GE healthcare). The H. pylori UreA protein was specifically detected with an anti-ureA rabbit polyclonal antibody used at a dilution of 1:5000 [76 (link)]. Goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP (Santa Cruz) were used as secondary antibodies and the detection was achieved with the ECL reagent (Pierce). Band intensity was quantified with a Pharos imager using Image Quant Software (Molecular Dynamics).

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.
