Ovarian tissues and GCs were homogenized in RIPA lysis buffer (P0013B, Beyotime) containing 1 mM Pierce™ Phosphatase Inhibitor (B15001, Selleck, Texas, USA) and 0.1% Halt™ Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (B14001, Selleck). The gel electrophoresis system of Bio-Rad (12% SDS polyacrylamide) was used to separate proteins from samples that contained an identical quantity of protein (30 μg); the proteins were then transferred onto polyvinylidenedifluoride membranes (IPVH00010, Merck Millipore, Massachusetts, USA). Target bands were blocked with 5% BSA for 2 h at 24°C. Subsequently, they were incubated with primary antibodies against GRP-78 (1 : 1000), CHOP (1 : 1000), PERK (1 : 1000, 20582-1-AP, Proteintech, Chicago, USA), ATF-6 (1 : 1000, 24169-1-AP), IRE1α (1 : 1000), p-IRE1α (1 : 1000), XBP1 (1 : 500, WL00708, Wanleibio, Shenyang, China), Bax (1 : 5000, 50599-2-Ig, Proteintech), caspase-9 (1 : 1000, 10380-1-AP), cleaved-caspase-3 (1 : 1000, 66470-2-Ig), Ar (1 : 1000), Cyp19α1 (1 : 1000), Cyp11α1 (1 : 1000), and GAPDH (1 : 5000, MB9231, Bioworld) overnight at 4°C, followed by the addition of HRP-labeled secondary antibodies. Blots were visualized using chemiluminescent detection. Densitometric analysis was performed using Image J.

To evaluate protein localization and intensity, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed according to previously described methods [26 (link), 27 (link)]. Ovarian tissue slides were dewaxed in xylene and graded series of ethanol solutions. Slides were then fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA) at 37°C. The sections were incubated overnight at 4°C with antibodies against p-IRE1α (1: 200, ab124945, Abcam, Cambridge, UK), XBP1 (1: 100, WL00708, Wanleibio, Shenyang, China), p-PI3K (1 : 200, AF3242, Affinity, USA), p-AKT (1: 200, 4060T, CST, USA), p-p53 (1: 200, ab33889, Abcam, UK), p-NF-κB (1: 200, 3033S, CST, USA), and cleaved-caspase-3 (1: 200, 66470-2-Ig, Proteintech, USA). All secondary antibodies were diluted (1 : 2000) and incubated at 25°C for 2 h. The sections were processed according to the avidin-biotinylated-peroxidase complex and DAB staining techniques, followed by observation under an optical microscope. Nuclei were counterstained with 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (1 : 2000, C1002, Beyotime, China) for 30 min and photographed using an Olympus laser scanning confocal microscope (FV3000).

The isolated spinal cords were homogenated with RIPA buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) containing 1% protease inhibitor (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) for 30 minutes on ice. The homogenates were centrifuged at 12000 g for 25 minutes at 4°C and supernatants were collected. NanoDrop 2000C (Thermo Scienti c, USA) was then used for protein concentrations determination. The homogenates and loading buffer 5× (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) were mixed at a ratio of 4: 1, denatured in the metal bath (100°C, 8~10 mins), cooled to room temperature and loaded. Protein samples were subjected to 12.5% SDS-PAGE (Epizyme Biotech, Shanghai, China) and then transferred to polyvinylidene uoride (PVDF) membranes. Membranes were blocked in protein free rapid blocking buffer (Epizyme Biotech, Shanghai, China) for 15 minutes at room temperature. After blocking, membranes were incubated with the primary antibodies against ATF3 (DF6660, A nity Biosciences), XBP1 (WL00708, WanleiBio), HMOX1 (WL02400, WanleiBio), DDIT3 (GADD153, Proteintech), CHAC1 (DF9353, A nity Biosciences) and GAPDH (AF7021, A nity Biosciences) overnight at 4°C. Membranes were incubated with the secondary antibody at room temperature for 1.5 h. Protein bands were captured using an ECL chemiluminescence system (Epizyme Biotech, Shanghai, China).

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.
