Western Blotting Procedure for HBsAg and Core Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For western blotting, cells were chilled on ice, rinsed with ice-cold PBS twice and lysed with RIPA buffer (Sigma-Aldrich, R0278) plus the protease inhibitor cocktail. Protein concentrations were determined using the BCA Protein Assay Kit (BioRad). About 25 μg protein per sample was loaded on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel and transferred to the PVDF membrane, which was washed with PBS Tween 20 buffer (PBST) (Thermo Fisher Scientific, #28360) for 5 minutes three times, blocked with 5% milk in PBST, and incubated with the anti-HBsAg (Novus, #NB100-62652) or the antibody directed against denatured core protein in the cold room overnight. The anti-core antibody was prepared in our lab using the recombinant core protein (Ou et al., 1989 (link)). After washing with PBST 3 times for 10 minutes each, the membranes were incubated with the horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Abcam) at room temperature for one hour. The membranes were washed with PBST three more times with 10 minutes per wash and subjected to chemiluminescent western blot analysis. All experiments were repeated at least three times.

Cell fixation was performed using 4% Paraformaldehyde Phosphate Buffer Solution for 10 min at room temperature (RT). Blocking was performed with 2.5% normal horse serum (Vector Laboratories, Inc., Burlingame, CA, USA) for 1-h at RT. Immunofluorescence analysis of MT-CO3, hepatitis B surface protein (HBs), and HBc was performed using 4-well Millicell® EZ slides (Merck Millipore, Ltd., Carrigtwohill, Ireland) with one of the following primary antibodies for overnight at 4°C: rabbit polyclonal anti-MT-CO3 (1:200; Cat#55082-1-AP; Proteintech, Rosemont, IL, USA), rabbit polyclonal anti-HBsAg (1:200; Cat#NB100-62652; NOVUS Biologicals, Littleton, CO, USA), and mouse anti-HBcAg (1:100; Cat#ab8638; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). As secondary antibodies, Vecta Fluor Excel Amplified Anti-Rabbit IgG, DyLight 488 Antibody Kit(Vector Laboratories, Inc.), and Vecta Fluor Excel Amplified Anti-Mouse IgG, DyLight 488 Antibody Kit(Vector Laboratories, Inc.) were used. Incubated at room temperature for 15 min with Amplifier Antibody, followed by 30 min at room temperature with VectaFluor Reagent. Cells were observed using an all-in-one Fluorescence Microscope (KEYENCE Corp., Osaka, Japan).

Western Blot for Liver Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An equal amount of total protein was run on 10% SDS-PAGE (EpiZyme, cat. no. PG112), transferred to PVDF membranes (Merck millipore, cat. no. IPVH00010) (380 mA for 2 h), and probed with primary antibodies. The primary antibodies include anti-HBsAg (1:1000, 27 kDa, Novus Biologicals), anti-HBx (1:1000, 17 kDa, Abcam), anti-CK7 (1:1000, 51 kDa, Signalway antibody (SAB)), anti-CK19 (1:1000, 40 kDa, Signalway antibody (SAB)), anti-Hep-Par1 (1:1000, 165 kDa, Proteintech Group), anti-ALB (1:1000, 66 kDa, Proteintech Group), anti-α-Tubulin (1:1000, 55 kDa, Proteintech Group), anti-GAPDH (1:1000, 36 kDa, CST). The target protein bands were captured by binding of the secondary antibodies linked with peroxidase (1:1000, Anti-Rabbit IgG (H + L), CST) (1:1000, anti-mouse IgG (H + L), CST) to the primary antibodies.

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.
