Lysates for immunoblotting were prepared from frozen cell pellets or snap-frozen xenograft tumors using RIPA buffer (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) with 1% Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Sigma-Aldrich). Protein concentrations were determined using Bradford methodology (Bio-Rad). Proteins (50 μg per load) were resolved onto a 4–20% SDS-PAGE gradient gel (Bio-Rad), transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% milk for 2 hrs, then incubated in primary antibody at 4 °C overnight (ZEB1 H-102, 1:200, sc-25388; ZEB2 H-260, 1:200, sc-48789; E-cadherin H-108, 1:500, sc-7870; N-cadherin, 1:500, ab18203; Vimentin V9, 1:200, sc-6260; β-Actin AC-15 1:10,000, sc-69879). All primary antibodies were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnology except for the anti N-cadherin antibody, which was obtained from AbCam. Membranes were then washed in TBST and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit or anti-mouse IgG (1:5000, GE Healthcare) for 1 h at room temperature. Blots were developed and visualized using the Amersham™ ECL™ Western Blotting Detection Reagent kit (GE Healthcare Life Sciences). Antibody for β-actin was used as a loading control.

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.
