Western blot analysis was conducted as described previously45 (link). Briefly, MLE-12 cells were lysed using RIPA buffer containing 1 mM of PMSF, 1 μg/mL of aprotinin, 1 μg/mL of leupeptin, 1 mM of Na3VO4, and 1 mM of NaF, and then stored in aliquots at − 80 °C until further analysis. The lysate (20 μg) was mixed with an equal volume of sample buffer, denatured by boiling, and then separated on 10–15% polyacrylamide mini-gel. The proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Amersham, Arlington Heights, IL), blocked with 5% milk, and incubated overnight with E-cadherin (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, ab11512), C-Raf (Abcam, ab137435), phospho-C-Raf (Abcam, ab60985), Twist1 (Abcam, ab49254), and ɑ-SMA (Abcam, ab21027).

After treatment with siRNA negative control (si-NC), si-Spry3, agomiR-NC, agomiR-18a, agomiR-BART10-5p, agomiR-18a combined agomiR-BART10-5p, antagomiR-NC, antagomiR-18a, antagomiR-BART10-5p, and antagomiR-18a combined antagomiR-BART10-5p, HONE1 and HONE1-EBV cells were harvested and lysed in lysis buffer supplemented with protease inhibitors. MicroRNA mimics, agomiRs, inhibitors, and antagomiRs were transfected at 50 nmol/L with Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Invitrogen, USA). Protein lysate was resolved on 10% SDS-PAGE followed by blot transfer onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, USA) using the semidry NovaBlot system (Amersham Pharmacia, UK) for western blot analysis. After that, the membranes were first incubated with antibodies against GAPDH (Proteintech, USA), Spry3, Ras, c-Raf, MEK1/2, Erk1/2, mTOR, eIF4E1, VEGF, mmp2, and HIF1-α (Abcam, UK) overnight at 4°C, followed by a 1- to 2-h incubation with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody. The protein signals were detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (Fdbio Science, China) and analyzed using the Bio-Rad (USA) imaging system and the associated software according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Antibodies concentrations are listed in Table S1.

Spiclomazine Modulates Cell Signaling Pathways

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Media (DMEM and IMDM) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) were purchased from Gibco (Grand island, NY). Unless otherwise notified, all chemicals were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Spiclomazine, 1-Thia-4,8-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-3-one,8-[3-(2- chloro-10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)propyl]-, hydrochloride (1:1) (Supplementary Figure 1), was kindly supplied from NCI/DTP Open Chemical Repository (http://dtp.cancer.gov) and further confirmed. Spiclomazine was dissolved in DMSO to make stock solution (10 mg/mL) and further diluted to appropriate concentrations with double distilled water containing 10% DMSO immediately before use. The c-Raf, MEK1/2, p-MEK1/2, ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, Caspase-3, Caspase-9, Bcl-xl, Bcl-2, Bax, β-Actin, CDK1 and Cyclin B1 primary antibodies were purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, MA). Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit and anti-mouse secondary antibodies were obtained from BD Bioscience (San Jose, CA).

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.
