Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of SERP1 overexpression on the expression of inflammatory factors in hepatocytes. Expression levels of SERP1 following transfection with SERP1 plasmid detected by (A) western blotting and (B) reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. **P<0.01, ***P<0.001 vs. OE-NC. (C) Expression levels of inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-18, IL-6 and IL-1β) detected by ELISA. (D) NLRP3 inflammasome (NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1) expression detected by western blotting. ***P<0.001 vs. the control; # P<0.05, ### P<0.001 vs. LPS + NC; Δ P<0.05, ΔΔ P<0.01 vs. LPS + SERP1; n≥3. SERP1, stress-associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1; OE, overexpression; NC, negative control; NLRP3, NLR family pyrin domain containing 3; ASC, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD; LPS, lipopolysaccharide.
Article Snippet: Subsequently, paraffin sections were washed with xylene, rehydrated with descending alcohol and antigen retrieval was performed at 95°C for 20 min. Then, 5% goat serum (Beijing Solarbio Technology Co. Ltd.) was used for blocking for 10 min at room temperature and sections were then incubated with the SERP1 primary antibody (1:200; cat. no. DF9873; Affinity Biosciences) at 4°C overnight.
