Primary antibodies for immunoblot analysis that were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology include: p-RB (S807/S811) (8516S), RB (9313S) (p-Akt (S473) (4070S), Akt (4691), pS6 (S235/236) (2211), S6 (2217), cyclin E1 (4129S), p21 (2947S), p27 (2552S), CDK4 (12790), Raptor (2280S), Rictor (2140S), pCDK2 (T160) (2561S) and CDK2 (2546S). Antibodies from Santa Cruz Biotechnology include: actin (SC-47778), pERK (Y204) (SC-7383), ERK (SC-514302), cyclin D1 (SC20044), CDK2 (SC-6248) and cyclin A (SC-271682). Phospho-CDK4 (PA5-664482) antibody was purchased from Thermo Fisher. Anti-CDKN2A/p16INK4a antibody was purchased from Abcam. The whole-cell extracts were prepared by lysing the cells with RIPA lysis buffer (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, SC-24948A) in the presence of 1X Halt protease inhibitor (Thermo Fisher) and 1 mM PMSF (Sigma). The extracted proteins (20 μg) were resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes, which were then incubated with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight, followed by incubation with HRP tagged anti-mouse or anti-rabbit secondary antibodies at room temperature up to 1 hour. An enhanced chemiluminescence kit (Thermo Fisher, 34076) was used to detect the immuno-reactive bands.

Cells were grown on coverslips and stained for SA-βgal as described above. Immunocytofluorescence staining for p16 was performed subsequently. Cells were incubated with 10% Triton X-100 (Amreco) for 3 min and washed with PBS. Nonspecific binding was blocked by incubating with 1% normal horse serum (Gibco) at 37°C for 1 h. Cells were then incubated with anti-CDKN2A/p16INK4a antibody (Abcam, ab108349) (1:10,000) at 4°C overnight, followed by incubation with secondary antibody Alexa Fluor 488 conjugate goat anti-rabbit IgG (1:10,000) (Cell Signaling Technology) in the dark at 37°C for 30 min. The coverslip with stained cells was washed and mounted using Fluoroshield mounting medium and DAPI (Abcam, ab104139). SA-βgal and p16 positive cells were visualized and imaged using an EVOS FL Auto 2 Cell Imaging System.

Comprehensive RNA and Protein Expression Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Whole transcriptome RNA expression was determined by RNASeq. Briefly, cell line RNA was isolated with an RNeasy Plus kit (Qiagen) and Illumina compatible libraries made with a TrueSeq Stranded Total RNA Sample Prep Kit (Illumina, Inc.). Libraries were sequenced with an Illumina HiSeq3000 instrument using the 75-bp paired-end format. Post sequencing, BCL files were converted to “FastQ.gz” format and individual sample libraries de-multiplexed using CASAVA 1.8.2 software (Illumina) with no mismatches. FASTQ files were checked for read quality using FastQC, aligned to hg19 using TopHat [16 (link)], and alignment quality was checked with RSeQC [17 (link)]. BAM files with mapped reads were sorted and outputted with SAMtools [18 (link)], and reads mapping to genes were counted with HTSeq-count [19 (link)]. Reads were then normalized using the trimmed mean of M (TMM) method implemented in the R Bioconductor package edgeR to generate expression values for each gene [20 (link)]. Protein expression for p16 was determined following Reverse Phase Protein Array analysis of cell lysates as previously described [21 (link)], using anti-CDKN2A/p16INK4a antibody (catalogue # ab81278) from Abcam.

Liver was fixed overnight in 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). After being embedded in paraffin, the specimens were cut cross-sectionally into 4-µm sections. All sections were incubated in sodium citrate solution (pH 6.0) at 95 °C for 40 min and then blocked with 5% fetal bovine serum in PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20 at room temperature for 2 h. Sections were then incubated with anti-CDKN2A/p16Ink4a antibody (catalog no. 54210; Abcam, Waltham, MA, USA) with 1:250 dilution at 4 °C for overnight in moist chamber. They were then washed and incubated with goat anti-mouse IgG (catalog no. ab150116; Abcam, Waltham, MA, USA) with 1:500 dilution at room temperature for 1 h. Vectashield Plus antifade mounting medium (catalog no. H-1900; Vector Laboratories, Newark, CA, USA) containing DAPI at 1:5,000 dilution was applied, and fluorescent signals were visualized under a fluorescent microscope (Ni-U model eclipse, Nikon, Japan).

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.
