Total cell lysates from liver of young (4-6 months old)Tg(TXN2)+/0 and WT mice were prepared, and detection of p70S6K1 and 4E-BP1 (phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms) was performed using Western blots. The amount of p70S6K1 and 4E-BP1 (phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms) was quantified by a densitometer, and the data were expressed as the relative amount of protein in lysates using β-actin as an internal standard.
Total cell lysates from liver of young (4-6 months old) Tg(TXN2)+/0 and WT mice were prepared, and detection of HIF-1α (Catalog No. Ab82832; Abcam, Cambridge, MA) was performed using Western blots. The amount of HIF-1α was quantified by a densitometer, and the data were expressed as the relative amount of protein in lysates using β-actin as an internal standard.
