Western blot was performed according to our previous paper [4 (link)]. In brief, whole cell extracts were prepared by lysing the cells in lysis buffer (KeyGEN biotech, Nanjing, China).

Subsequently the Western blot results were visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence according to manufacturer’s instructions (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The expression of protein was quantified by Image J software.
