Exosome samples (2 µg) were reduced by 100 mM dithiothreitol at 95°C for 3 min, subjected to 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and electrophoretically transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride transfer membrane. The membrane was blocked with Blocking One (Nacalai Tesque, Kyoto, Japan) for 30 min.

To characterize the exosomes, purified exosomes and cell extracts were lysed in the RIPA lysis buffer (150 mmol/L NaCl, 1% Triton X‐100, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, 1% SDS, 50 mmol/L Tris (pH = 8)) and a protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma, USA). After lysis, 15 µg of each sample was re‐suspended in reducing sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) loading buffer and incubated for 5 minutes at 95°C. Thereafter the samples were subjected to 12% SDS‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Following electrotransfer of separated proteins onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) transfer membrane and a blocking step, the transferred proteins were immunodetected using the rabbit anti‐human anti‐CD63 and anti‐CD81 primary antibody (Exosomes Antibodies Array & ELISA Kits (EXOAB‐KIT‐1, System Biosciences (SBI), UK, 1:1000) overnight, followed by incubation with appropriate goat anti‐rabbit IgG horseradish peroxidase (HRP)‐coupled secondary antibody (1:20 000) for 1 hour at room temperature. The blot was subsequently developed using a chemiluminescent HRP substrate and chemiluminescence was detected using a LAS3000 instrument (Fujifilm, Japan). The primary antibody was omitted in the control group and rabbit IgG was used as isotype control.

Three-day cultures under low light or 2-d cultures under high light of WT cells were precipitated with 10% (w/v) TCA and washed with ice-cold acetone. For dark conditions, the culture tube was covered with aluminum foil for 3 h before TCA precipitation. The cells were treated with 25 mM DTTred for 10 min at room temperature before TCA precipitation for the DTT treatment condition. Precipitates were then suspended in SDS sample buffer containing 4 mM PEO. After labeling for 40 min at room temperature, protein samples were boiled at 95°C for 5 min and centrifuged at 20,400×g for 10 min. Proteins in the supernatants were then separated by nonreducing SDS-PAGE using 10% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel with 8 M urea in the separating gel and blotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. Immunoblotting was performed using PRK polyclonal antibodies against recombinant AtPRK.

After incubating cells with cisplatin, cells were collected, lysed in a RIPA buffer with protease inhibitors (Nacalai Tesque), and subjected to 10~15% SDS-PAGE. The electrophoresed proteins were transferred onto a polyvinyidene difluoride membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA) using a semidry blot system (2 mA/cm2 for 0.5 hr in 0.2 M Tris-glycine buffer, pH 8.8). Caspase-3 and -9 activation was analyzed using specific antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA). After incubation of the sheets in TBS solution (140 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2) containing 0.1% Tween 20 (TBST) and 5% low-fat milk powder at 25℃ for 1 hr, they were treated with anti-cleaved caspase-3 and -9 antibodies, as well as anti-β-actin antibody (Sigma) at 25℃ for 1 hr. The incubated membranes were washed five times with TBST for 5 min to eliminate nonspecific binding of the 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.
