Anti mmp 9

Manufactured by Bioworld Technology
Sourced in United States

Anti-MMP-9 is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and quantification of the Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) protein. MMP-9 is an enzyme involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix and is associated with various physiological and pathological processes. The Anti-MMP-9 reagent can be used in various analytical techniques, such as ELISA and Western blotting, to measure MMP-9 levels in biological samples.

Protein Expression Analysis of Hep-G2 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cellular proteins were extracted from Hep-G2 cells (Con, NC, and sh-LOXL1-AS1) in lysis buffer (Beyotime). The cell proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to poyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Millipore). The membranes were blocked and then probed with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The following primary antibodies were used in this study: anti- CyclinB1, anti-Cdc25A, anti-Cdc2, anti-MMP-2, anti-MMP-9, and anti-β-actin (all from Bioworld Technology). β-Actin (Beyotime) was employed as an internal control. After washing, the membranes were incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit or anti-mouse IgG (Beyotime) and were visualized with an enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagent from Pierce.

The procedure of IHC staining was performed as described previously. Anti–KIF3A (abcam, ab11259, dilution at 1:300), anti–phospho‐Rb, anti–E2F1, anti–Cyclin E1, anti–Cyclin D1, anti–P21, anti–ZEB1, anti–E‐cadherin, anti–vimentin, anti–MMP‐9 and anti–MMP‐2 (Bioworld Technology, all at dilution 1:200) were incubated overnight at 4°C. Each slide was photographed with a digital camera on an inverted Olympus IX81 microscope. The staining evaluation was made according to the semi–quantitative scoring system, as described previously. Briefly, the scores of positive tumor cell proportion (0, none; 1, <1/100; 2, 1/100 to 1/10; 3, 1/10 to 1/3; 4, 1/3 to 2/3; and 5,> 2/3) and staining intensity (0, none; 1, weak; 2, intermediate; and 3, strong) were added up to obtain a final total score, ranging from 0 to 8.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
