At 0, 24 and 48 hours, NPCs were collected and lysed in lysis buffer (Beyotime) on ice using a western and IP cell lysis kit. Then, the protein extracts were collected by centrifugation at 15 000 g for 15 minutes at 4°C. Protein concentrations of cell lysates were tested using an enhanced BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime). After protein transfer, the membranes were blocked with nonfat milk and then incubated overnight at 4°C with rat antibodies against LC3B (L7543, 1:1000, Sigma), p62 (sc‐48402, 1:500, Santa Cruz, USA), p16 (ab51243, 1:1000, Abcam), p21 (ab218311, 1:1000, Abcam), p53 (sc‐126, 1:500, Santa Cruz), PARKIN (ab77924, 1:200, Abcam), PINK1 (ab23707, 1:500, Abcam), COX IV (ab202554, 1:1000, Abcam) and β‐actin (8H10D10, 1:1000, CST). After three washes, the membranes were incubated using peroxidase‐conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature. Finally, the proteins were visualized using the enhanced chemiluminescence method following the manufacturer's instructions (Amersham Biosciences).

Following treatment with the selected compounds, the cells were collected and lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Protein concentrations were quantified using the BCA kit. Standard western blot was used to evaluate total and phosphorylated protein expression levels. The antibodies used in this study were as follows: anti-Akt (1:1,000; AbSci, cat. no. AB 4685), anti-phospho-Akt (1:1,000; Ser473, AbSci, cat. no. AB 4060; Thr308, AbSci, cat. no. AB11055), anti-pro caspase-3 (1:1,000; AbSci, cat. no. AB9665), and p21 (1:1,000; Abcam, ab218311), Cyclin D1 (1:1,000; Abcam, ab134175), Bcl-2 (1:1,000; Abcam, ab185002), Bax (1:1,000; Abcam, ab32503), cleaved caspase 3 (1:1,000; Abcam, ab32042), and GAPDH (1:1,000; Abcam, ab181602).

Proteins were extracted with a Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Protein Extraction kit (catalogue no. P0028, Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Cell protein lysates were separated by 10% sodium salt (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and then electroblotted from the gels onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). After blocking the membrane with 5% nonfat milk powder and 0.1% Tween 20 in PBS for 1 h, the membrane was incubated with primary antibodies specific to GPX2 (catalogue no. ab140130), p21 (ab218311), Cyclin D1 (ab134175), Bcl-2 (ab185002), Bax (ab32503), cleaved caspase 3 (ab32042), and GAPDH (ab181602); all of which were acquired from Abcam (Cambridge, UK; the dilution for all was 1 : 1000). After extensive washing with blocking solution, blots were exposed to horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (catalogue no. ZB-2301, Zsbio, Beijing, China; 1 : 2500 dilution). Finally, the protein bands were imaged using an enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) substrate (Merck Millipore, Hong Kong, China).

Total proteins from HCC cells were extracted using radioimmunoprecipitation assay
lysis buffer and qualified by a bicinchoninic acid assay detecting kit (Thermo
Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Proteins (20 μg) were boiled at 100°C in
sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) sample buffer for 5 min and separated with
SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and then transferred onto a
polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. After blocking, membranes were incubated
with primary anti-ROCK1 (ab134181, Abcam, Cambridge, UK; 1:1,000), anti-cylinD1
(ab251892, Abcam, 1:500), anti-p21 (ab218311, Abcam, 1:1,000), anti-E-cadherin
(ab194982, Abcam, 1:500), and anti-MMP2 (ab97779, 1:1,000) antibodies for
overnight. The following day, secondary anti-rabbit or anti-mouse antibodies
(ab6940, ab97035, Abcam, 1:2,000) were added and incubated with membranes for 1
h at room temperature. The captured bands were quantified using Image Lab™
Software (Bio-Rad, Hercules, California, USA).

Immunohistochemistry was performed using the Vectastain Elite ABC-HRP Kit (Vector Labs, Burlingame, CA). Sectioned samples were prepared for histology as described above. Sections were blocked with 10% horse serum in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) for 1 hour and then incubated overnight at 4 °C with primary antibodies against MMP-13 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA; Cat. No. ab39012), COL10 (Abcam; ab49945), COL2 (Abcam; ab34712), p16 (Abcam; ab108349), and p21 (Abcam; ab218311), respectively. Afterwards, the sections were sequentially incubated with biotinylated secondary antibodies for 1 h, and prepared Vectastain Elite ABC reagent for 30 minutes. Lastly, peroxidase substrate was added followed by incubation for various time periods appropriate for the different antigenic targets. After counterstaining with hematoxylin, slides were dehydrated, mounted, and coverslipped.

After lysing cells in RIPA lysis buffer, total protein samples were acquired, followed by protein separation on 10% SDS-PAGE (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) and shifting to PVDF membranes (Millipore). After sealing in 5% nonfat milk, membranes were probed all night at 4 °C with primary antibodies against the internal control GAPDH (ab8245, Abcam) or Tubulin (ab7291, Abcam), as well as MAML2 (ab245612, Abcam), p21 (ab218311, Abcam), HES-1 (ab71559, Abcam), SRSF1 (ab38017, Abcam), ADAR (ab88574, Abcam) and RBPJ (ab25949, Abcam). Following washing in TBST, the HRP-tagged secondary antibody was added for 2 h at room temperature. Finally, ECL luminous liquid (Pierce, Rockford, IL) was added for detection. Experiments were performed in triplicate.

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.
