The BCA protein assay kit (AS1086, ASPEN, Wuhan, China) was used for the quantification of total proteins. Samples were separated by SDS PAGE and electro-transferred onto PVDF (0.45 um) membranes (Servicebio,G6015-0.45, Wuhan, China) after activation with methanol. The membranes were then incubated overnight at 4°C with specific primary antibodies:CB1 (Servicebio,GB111214), PI3K(BIOSS,BSM-33219M), P-PI3K (BIOSS,bs5570R), AKT (Servicebio,GB11689), P-AKT (Affinity,AF0908), STAT3 (Servicebio,GB11176), P-STAT3 (RuiyingBiological, RLP0250), Bcl2 (Servicebio, GB113375), BAX (Servicebio, GB11690),ACTIN(Servicebio, GB12001). The membranes were washed three times with TBST for 10 min each. After washing, the membranes were incubated with HRP anti-conjugated secondary antibody (Servicebio, GB23303) for 1 h. The membranes were washed in the same manner as described above. Membranes were scanned using the Fluor Chem FC3 system (Protein Simple, United States).

Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections were first baked and deparaffinized. The tissue sections were then placed in citric acid antigen repair buffer (pH 6.0) in a microwave oven for antigen repair. The tissue was placed in 3% hydrogen peroxide solution for 25 min to block endogenous peroxidase and then closed at room temperature for 30 min by adding 3% BSA dropwise to cover the tissue uniformly. primary antibodies (BAX, Servicebio, 50599-2-Ig, 1:300; Bcl-2, Servicebio B13439, 1:200) were added and stored overnight at 4°C and secondary antibodies [HRP IgG (H + L), Servicebio GB23302, 1:200] and incubated at room temperature for 50 min. Then freshly prepared DAB color development solution was added dropwise and the color development time was controlled under the microscope. The nuclei were re-stained with hematoxylin and then sealed by dehydration. The average optical density value was calculated for the relevant area of each section using Image-Pro-PLUS software, and the magnitude of the value was the degree of expression of the relevant subunit protein.

The cells of each group were collected and protein was extracted. Protein extracts were prepared in the lysis buffer. The lysis buffer was a combination of RIPA, complete, phosstop, and 10 mM PMSF. A BCA™ protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, USA) was used to estimate the protein concentration. The protein samples were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (EMD Millipore). The membranes were then blocked with 5% nonfat milk or bovine serum albumin (for detecting phosphorylated protein) in TBST (Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween-20) for 2 h at room temperature.

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.
