Immunoprecipitation, SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis were performed according to a standard protocol as described previously (35 (link)). The following antibodies were used according to the manufacturers’ protocols: anti-Fbxw7 (Abcam, ab12292, RRID: AB_442966), anti-Lys48-specific linked polyubiquitin (MilliporeSigma, 05-1307, RRID: AB_1587578), anti-c-Jun (CST, #9165S, RRID: AB_2130165), anti-p65 (CST, #8242, RRID: AB_10859369), anti-p-p65 (CST, #3036, RRID: AB_331281), Collagen-I(Abcam, ab34710, RRID: AB_731684), Collagen-III (Abcam, ab7778, RRID: AB_306066), EGR-1 (CST, #4154S, RRID: AB_2097035). The PVDF membranes were incubated with corresponding primary antibodies followed by horseradish peroxidase-linked secondary antibodies. The images were developed and captured using Chemiluminescence imaging system (ChemiScope 3000 Mini, Clinx Science Instruments Co., Ltd). Relative quantities of target protein were determined comparing to β-actin expression using densitometric analysis (ImageJ 1.52v). The standard deviation was calculated for biological duplicates.
