Total protein was extracted from ovaries using RIPA buffer (Cat. #P0013B, Beyotime, Shanghai, China) containing 1% protease inhibitor (MCE). Proteins were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred into polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). The membranes were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4 ℃ after being blocked with Tris-buffered saline with Tween 20 (TBST) containing 5% nonfat dry milk for 60 min. The following primary antibodies were used: Alix (ZENBIO, Chengdu, Sichuan, China), TSG101 (Proteintech, Wuhan, Hubei, China), CD9 (Proteintech), β-tubulin (Abbkine, Wuhan, Hubei, China), γH2AX (abcam, Boston, MA, USA), BAX (CST, Danvers, MA, USA), p53 (CST), Cleaved caspase-3 (CST), Bcl-2 (Abclonal, Wuhan, Hubei, China). Then, the membranes were washed three times with TBST for 10 min and incubated with secondary antibodies for 60 min. The signals were obtained through enhanced chemiluminescence (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Carlsbad, CA, USA) on the Tanon 5200 analysis system (Tanon, Shanghai, China).

Cell lysate samples were prepared from cells in RIPA solution (Cat# FD009; Fude) supplemented with protease inhibitor (Cat# FD1001; Fude) and protein phosphatase inhibitor (Cat# FD1002; Fude). Denatured cell lysates were resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) filter membrane. After transfer, membranes were blocked in 5% (wt/vol) nonfat dry milk diluted in TBST. Membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against Mfn1 (1 : 1000, Cat# 14739; CST), Mfn2 (1 : 1000, Cat# 11925; CST), Drp1 (1 : 1000, Cat# 5391; CST), p-Drp1-S616 (1 : 500, Cat# 3455; CST), p-Drp1-S637 (1 : 500, Cat# 4867; CST), Opa1 (1 : 1000, Cat# ab157457; Abcam), PINK1 (1 : 1000, Cat# 6946; CST), NRF2 (1 : 1000, Cat# ab62352; Abcam), NLRP3 (1 : 1000, Cat# ab210491; Abcam), caspase 1 (1 : 1000, Cat# ab207802; Abcam), cleaved caspase 1 (P20) (1 : 1000, Cat# 4199; CST), PSMB5 (1 : 1000, Cat# abs115883; Absin), GAPDH (1 : 3000, Cat# FD0063; Fude), β-actin (1 : 1000, Cat# FD0060; Fude), and β-Tubulin (1 : 1000, Cat# A01030; Abbkine) overnight at 4°C and subsequently incubated with horseradish peroxidase- (HRP-) conjugated secondary antibodies which were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence (Cat# FD802; Fude). Immunoblots were analyzed using ImageJ 5.0 software (NIH; MD).

Hypothalamus was homogenized in Radio Immunoprecipitation Assay Lysis buffer (RIPA) buffer and cleared by centrifugation, according to the standard techniques. Western blots of whole tissue lysates were probed with primary antibodies against Kisspeptin (ab226786, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom), GnRH (PA5-97047, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, United States), β-Tubulin (A01030, Abbkine, CA, United States), GAPDH (A01020; Abbkine, CA, United States). The secondary antibody used was either peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (111-035-003; Jackson, West Grove, PA, United States), or peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mice IgG (115-035-003; Jackson, West Grove, PA, United States). Protein markers (20351ES76; Shanghai Yisheng, China) were added on both sides of each gel to verify bands. The polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes were detected by enhanced chemoluminescence (Beyotime, China). The bands were analyzed using Image LabTM Software (Bio-Rab Laboratories, Hercules, CA, United States), were normalized to β-Tubulin or GAPDH, and were expressed as relative units (RU).

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.
