E cadherin

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

E-cadherin is a cell-cell adhesion protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and organization of epithelial tissues. It is a calcium-dependent transmembrane glycoprotein that facilitates cell-cell interactions and is essential for the formation and maintenance of adherens junctions. E-cadherin is a vital component of the cell-cell adhesion complex and is involved in various cellular processes, including cell-cell signaling, cell polarity, and tissue morphogenesis.

Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot Analysis

For immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis, β-actin (Sigma Inc.), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA, Sigma Inc.), E-cadherin (BD Transduction Lab., San Diego, CA, USA), and F4/80 (Serotec Inc., Raleigh, NC, USA) were used.
The wax of the 4 μm sectioned tissues was removed through alcohol and xylene, and the sections were then immersed in 0.4% methanolic H2O2 for 30 minutes, followed by 0.05% Triton X for 15 minutes. After incubation in 2% donkey serum (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, PA, USA) for 1 hour, these sections were immersed in primary antibodies, α-SMA 1:1,000, E-cadherin 1:200, and F4/80 1:50 overnight at 4ºC.
The following day, the sections were washed with 0.01 M PBS and then immersed in donkey-anti-rat or donkey-anti-mouse (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories) secondary antibodies diluted to 1:200 and incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Immunoreactivity was detected by incubation in Tris buffer (pH 7.6) containing 0.05% 3,3′-diaminobenzidine-4HCl and 0.005% H2O2. These sections were then counterstained with Meyer’s hematoxylin and mounted with Canada balsam for examination.

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.
