Anti stat4

Manufactured by Santa Cruz Biotechnology

Anti-STAT4 is a primary antibody that targets the STAT4 protein. STAT4 is a transcription factor that plays a key role in the signaling pathways of certain cytokines, such as interleukin-12 (IL-12) and type I interferons. This antibody can be used for various applications, including Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry, to detect and study the STAT4 protein in biological samples.

Standard Western-blot assays were used as described previously59 (link). The following primary antibodies were used: anti-PPARα (Abcam, Cata# ab24509), anti-ACLY (Santa Cruz, Cata# sc-517267), anti-FASN (Santa Cruz, Cata# sc-48357), anti-ACSL1 (cell signaling, Cata# 4047 S), anti-ACSL5 (Santa Cruz, Cata# sc-365478), anti-STAT3 (Santa Cruz, Cata# sc-8019), anti-pSTAT3 (cell signaling, Cata# 9145 S), anti-STAT1 (cell signaling, Cata# 14994 S), anti-pSTAT1 (cell signaling, Cata# 9177 S), anti-STAT4 (cell signaling, Cata# 2653 S), anti-pSTAT4 (cell signaling, Cata# 4134 S), anti-AKT (Santa Cruz, Cata# sc-5298, 1:2000 dilution), anti-pAKT (cell signaling, Cata# 9018 S), anti-pERK (cell signaling, Cata# 4376), anti-ERK (cell signaling, Cata# 9102), anti-pMAPK (cell signaling, Cata# 4511), anti-MAPK (cell signaling, Cata# 9212) and anti-β-actin (Sigma, Cata# A5441, 1:100,000 dilution) antibodies. Other than anti-AKT and anti-β-actin antibodies, the dilution for all other antibodies was 1:1000.

Approximately 5 × 106 enriched splenic NK cells were purified by sorting on TCRβNK1.1+ cells. Proteins were cross-linked to chromatinized DNA for 8 min at 25 °C by addition of 1% formaldehyde to the medium. ChIP was carried out as previously described63 (link) using 10 μg of rabbit polyclonal anti-STAT4 (Santa Cruz, sc-468, clone C-20) or 10 μg of rabbit serum IgG antibody as a control (data not shown; Sigma, I5006), or 0.5 μg of anti-H3K27Ac (Abcam, 4729). Relative abundance of regulatory sequences in the Zbtb32 promoter or, as controls, in the Actb and Gapdh promoters or a gene desert ∼50 kb upstream of the Foxp3 gene was measured by qPCR in the antibody-precipitated DNA. Percent input was calculated by 100 × 2̂(CTadjusted input – CTtarget), where the CTinput was adjusted from 5% to 100% by subtracting Log2 20 CTs. Primer sequences are listed in Supplementary Table 2.

ChIP Assay for STAT3 and RORγt Transcription Factors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The ChIP procedure was performed using an assay kit following the manufacturer's instruction (EMD Millipore). Briefly, TH17 and TH1 cells were cross-linked by 1% formaldehyde for 10 min at 37°C. Nuclei were prepared and subjected to sonication to obtain DNA fragments. Chromatin fractions were precleared with protein A-agarose beads followed by immunoprecipitation overnight at 4°C with 3 μg of anti-STAT3 (Santa Cruz), anti-ROR gamma(t) (eBioscience), anti-STAT4 (Santa Cruz), or control antibody. Cross-linking was reversed at 65°C for 4 hrs, followed by proteinase K digestion. DNA was purified and subjected to qPCR. The input DNA was diluted 200 times prior to PCR amplification. The input and immunoprecipitated DNA were amplified by qPCR using primers encompassing the STAT3 or STAT4 binding sites of the mouse RORγt or T-bet promoter regions.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation for Transcription Factors

Chromatin was prepared from the indicated T helper cell population as previously described17 (link). The resulting chromatin was incubated with either anti-STAT4 (Santa Cruz), anti-STAT3 (Santa Cruz), or control antibody (Abcam) and immunoprecipitated using Protein G Dynabeads (Life Technologies). Precipitated DNA was analyzed via quantitative PCR using SYBR Select Mastermix (Life Technologies) and gene-specific primers: (Bcl6 promoter forward: 5′-GCGGAGCAATGGTAA AGCCC-3′, and reverse: 5′-CTGGTGTCCGGCCTTTCCTAG-3′; Bcl6 control forward: 5′-GTACTCCAACAACAGCACAGC-3′, and reverse: 5′-GTGGCTCGTTAAATCACAGAGG-3′; Il21 promoter forward: 5′-CAC ACACCTTGGTGAATGCTG-3′, and reverse: 5′-CCATTGGCTAGGTGTACGTGTG-3′). Samples were normalized to total input followed by the subtraction of the isotype control to account for unspecific binding.

Western Blot Analysis of NK92 Cells

For Western blot analysis, nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments of NK92 cells were extracted from 1–3 × 106 cells via the Fermentas ProteoJET Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Protein Extraction protocol (Fermentas, Burlington, ON). Nuclei were lysed using Nuclear Lysis Buffer (Fermentas, Burlington, ON) and both lysed nuclei and cytoplasm were resuspended in Laemmlis SDS-Sample Buffer (4×) (Boston Bioproducts, Boston, MA). Samples were boiled for 10 minutes and proteins separated by electrophoresis with a 12% agarose gel and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane for blotting. Proteins were visualized with anti-NF-κB p65 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA), anti-cJun (Abcam, Cambridge, MA), anti-STAT4 (Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, CA), anti-GR (Abcam, Cambridge, MA) and HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (Millipore, Temecula, CA) and chemiluminescence reagent (ThermoScientific, Rockford, IL). Quality of nuclear and cytoplasmic compartment extraction was determined by Laminin B and GAPDH, respectively (Abcam, Cambridge, MA). Blot density was quantified using Image J software.

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.
