Human PKD2L1 cDNA (accession #: NM_016112) was inserted into vector pCHGF61 (link) for efficient expression in Xenopus laevis oocyte. Flag tag was then added before the N-terminus of the PKD2L1 for immunodetection. HA-tagged human PKD2 (NM_000297) plasmid was constructed as we previously reported5 (link). Mutagenesis was carried out using QuikChange Lightning Site-Directed Mutagenesis kit (Agilent Technologies, La Jolla, CA) and confirmed by sequencing. Sequences of primers used in this study are included in Supplementary Table 2. Rabbit FLAG (D-8, 1:2000), HA (Y-11, 1:2000) and mouse β-actin (C-4, 1:4000) antibodies were from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Santa Cruz, CA) for immunoblotting.

For protein extraction, cultured cells were homogenized with 200 µl of RIPA lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 2 µl of proteinase inhibitor (Nacalai Tesque), and 2 µl of phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (Nacalai Tesque). After centrifuging (15,000 rpm, 10 min), supernatants were collected. Total protein was quantified using Protein Assay CCB Solution (Nacalai Tesque). Twenty micrograms of protein was fractionated with sample buffer solution with reducing reagent for SDS‐PAGE (Nacalai Tesque) on acrylamide gel (Mini‐Protean TGX Precast Gel, Bio‐Rad) and electro‐transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. After blocking with 5% skim milk for 1 h, the membranes were probed with antibodies against SNCG (1:200 dilution; 1H10D2, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) or β‐actin (1:500 dilution; C4, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) overnight in a cold room. Peroxidase‐conjugated anti‐mouse antibody (1:5000 dilution; NA931‐1ML, GE Healthcare Life Sciences) was used as a secondary antibody and signals were enhanced by highly sensitive detection substrate (Chemi‐Lumi One Super, Nacalai Tesque).

4-µm sections of the recipient block were mounted onto slides, subjected to antigen retrieval, and stained with an antibody combination consisting of LCN-2 (R&D, MAB1757) and pan-cytokeratin (panCTK) (Abcam, ab7753) according to manufacturer´s instructions using the Opal™ 4-Color Fluorescent IHC Kit (Perkin-Elmer). DAPI was used for nuclear visualization. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) coupled anti-mouse (GE Healthcare, NA931.1 ML) or anti-rat (GE Healthcare, NA935-1 ML) secondary antibodies was used for detection. Images were acquired using the Vectra automated imaging system and analysis was performed using ImageJ. Specifically, the background was substracted using the rolling circle function and the channels were demixed during this process (the rolling circle radius was set to at least the size of the largest object that is not part of the background which was determined a priori). Thresholds were set semi-automatically for the pre-processed images. Under- or overexposed images were discarded from further analysis. For quantitative analysis, the images were then converted to binary images and the signal distribution was determined for each color individually.

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.
