In the present experiment, diabetic rats kept in different nutritional condition were subjected to hind limb ischemia by ligating femoral artery and cutting of distal to the inguinal ligament and proximal to the popliteal bifurcation site. After surgery, rats were sacrificed at different time points, femoral muscles were harvested, proteins were extracted, and an equal amount of proteins were resolved in 12% SDS-PAGE. Resolved proteins were western transferred in nitrocellulose membrane and probed for VEGFC levels. Selection of antibody from abcam was based on previous experience with same antibody.

Primary Incubation

Overnight at 4 0C (5% skimmed milk in TBS with 0.1% Tween 20; dilution 1:1000)

Blocking Agent

5 % Skimmed milk in TBS with 0.1% Tween 20 (for 2 hr at RT)

Secondary Incubation

1hr at RT (5% skimmed milk in TBS with 0.1% Tween 20; dilution 1:5000)

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

ECL

Results Summary

Although, specific band of VEGFC were detected at nearly 22 KDa, lot of non-specific bands with bright intensities were also observed. Blot was not very clean as lots of other bands were also visible.
