Protein levels of MMP2, MMP9 and E-cadherin were detected by western blotting 24 h following treatment. In brief, the total cell proteins were extracted from cells using lysis buffer (Cell Signaling Technology Inc., Danvers, MA, USA). BCA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) was carried out to measure the protein concentrations. Equal amounts of protein samples (25 µg) were separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and then transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. Following this, the membranes were blocked with 5% skim milk at room temperature for 2 h. Subsequently, incubation occurred with the primary antibodies against MMP2 (cat. no. 13132), MMP9 (cat. no. 2270) or E-cadherin (cat. no. 3195; all 1:1,000; all Cell Signaling Technology Inc.) overnight at 4°C. The membrane was then incubated with secondary antibodies (HRP-conjugated goat Anti-Rabbit, cat. no. Ab203-01, Vazyme, Piscataway, NJ, USA) at room temperature for 2 h. GAPDH (1:5,000; cat. no. 8884, Cell Signaling Technology Inc.) served as the internal control. Finally, to visualize the protein bands, an enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (Super Signal West Dura Extended Duration Substrate; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) was used.

Total RNA was extracted from cell samples using TRIzol reagent in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). We used the cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) to synthesize first-strand cDNA. Moreover, RT-PCR was carried out with the use of SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) to detect the transcript abundance of MFAP2. The following primer pairs were used for MFAP2:
The calculation of the relative quantification was performed according to the method of 2−ΔΔCt.
Western blot analysis. For the detection of the protein expression, Western blot analysis was carried out as previously described. The antibodies used were: MFAP2 (Abcam, UK), E-cadherin (Sigma-Aldrich, Chicago, IL, USA), vimentin (Sigma-Aldrich, Chicago, IL, USA), Snail (Sigma-Aldrich, Chicago, IL, USA), β-catenin (Sigma-Aldrich, Chicago, IL, USA), and GAPDH (Vazyme, Piscataway, NJ, USA), using standard chemical luminescence methodology.

Total protein was extracted from HTR-8/SVneo cell lines using RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime, Jiangsu, China), and the protein concentration in each extract was determined by using a BCA Kit from the same manufacturer, adhering to the protocol supplied. For each sample, 20 µg of protein was resolved via 10% SDS-PAGE and subsequently transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Beyotime, Jiangsu, China). The membranes were then subsequently blocked using QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for (Beyotime, Jiangsu, China)1 h at room temperature. Following this step, the membranes were incubated at 4 °C overnight with primary antibodies against N-cadherin, E-cadherin (from Cell Signaling Technology, Inc, Boston, USA), as well as vimentin, snail, β-TrCP, β-actin (Abcam, Cambridge, USA), and GAPDH (Abcam, Cambridge, USA). The next stage involved incubation with an HRP-labeled secondary antibody for 1 h at room temperature. The protein bands were visualized using ECL-plus reagents (Vazyme Biotech Co., Ltd, Jiangsu, China) with GAPDH or β-actin serving as an internal control.

Soluble proteins from treated cells were harvested and lysed in solution containing 50 mM HEPES (pH 7), 150 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 100 mM NaF, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 10% glycerol, 1% Triton X-100, 1 mM Na3VO4, 10 μM pepstatin, 10 μg/mL aprotinin, 5 mM iodoacetic acid, and 2 μg/mL leupeptin. Equal amounts of protein were resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). The membranes were then probed with the following primary antibodies: CD133 (#64326S, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), SOX2 (#23064 S, Cell Signaling Technology), β-catenin (#8480S, Cell Signaling Technology), Ser675-phosphorylated β-catenin (#4176S, Cell Signaling Technology), Ser9-phosphorylated GSK3β (#9336S, Cell Signaling Technology), GSK3β (#5676S, Cell Signaling Technology), PKA (#5842S, Cell Signaling Technology), GAPDH (#Ab103, Vazyme, Nanjing, China), and β-actin (#Ab101-03, Vazyme). Immunoreactivity was visualized by probing with the HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (#7074, Cell Signaling Technology) and detected using the ECL kit (#sc-2048, Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, CA, USA). Western blot band intensities were quantified through densitometric analysis using ImageJ and normalized the band intensities with the loading control band. Original uncropped WB are given in Supplementary Material.

Western blot is widely used in biochemistry and molecular biology [39 (link), 40 (link)]. In this study, Western blot was used in detecting the expression of AEG-1 protein in different cell lines and different groups. The NSCLC cells were washed with PBS in a 6-well-plate and were lysed in a buffer of 10% glycerol, 5% SDS, 5% 2-mercaptoethanol, 0.2% romophenol blue, 80 mM Tris-HCl (ph 6.8), 5 mM EDTA (ph 8) and 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. Then, the lysates were centrifuged at 12,000×g for 10 min at 4°C and were boiled for 5 min. Hybond ECL nitrocellulose membranes (GE Healthcare Bio-sciences/Amersham, Diegem, Belgium) were applied to separate the proteins for 2 h at 100 mA. The immunoblot analyses were executed using the following antibodies: AEG-1 (Cell Signaling Technology) and GAPDH (Vazyme Biotech Co., Ltd). The image pro plus 6.0 was used to analyze the IOD value.

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.
