Cells were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Calbiochem). Nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions were prepared from the BV2 cells using NE-PER reagents [32 (link)] according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Protein concentrations were determined by BCA assay [32 (link)]. Samples were loaded on 12% Bis-Tris pre-cast polyacrylamide gel (Invitrogen) and transferred to PVDF membrane (BIO-RAD). Membrane was then probed with antibody against HIF-1ɑ (NB100-449, Novus) followed by goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (Santa Cruz) and developed with the Pierce ECL substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
