doi: 10.1186/s12882-024-03648-1
Figure Lengend Snippet: The expression levels of OPG, RANKL, RANK, and TLR4 protein in kidney tissues. Western blot detected the protein expression levels in each group. ( A ) Representative Western blot results. ( B ) Relative level of OPG. ( C ) Relative level of RANKL. ( D ) Relative level of RANK. ( E ) Relative level of TLR4. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, **** P < 0.0001
Article Snippet: After electrophoresis separation, the proteins were transferred to the membrane, which was blocked with 5% skim milk for 2 h. Subsequently, the membrane was incubated overnight at 4 °C with the primary antibodies against OPG (1:1000; Affinity Bioscience, OH, USA), RANKL (1:3000; Proteintech Group, Inc, Wuhan, China), RANK (1:500; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), TLR4 (1:500; Proteintech Group, Inc), and β-actin (1:10000) (Tiandeyue (Beijing) Biotechnology Co., Ltd, China).
