Cancer cells were treated with M-PER® Mammalian Protein Extraction Reagent (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA), HALT Protease Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Scientific), and Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Scientific) to extract total protein. A total of 15–20 µg of total protein were electrophoresed per well on a SDS-polyacrylamide gel; transferred onto Immobilon-FL PVDF membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA); and further incubated with the following primary antibodies: VEGFA (sc-507), VEGFC (sc-1881), VEGFD (sc-13085), LYVE1 (sc-28190), and COX-2 (sc-1747), using antibodies (1:500 dilutions) from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA). Monoclonal GAPDH antibody (MAB374) was from Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA. After blocking with primary antibodies, overnight blots were probed with a mixture of IRDye polyclonal secondary antibodies (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA). Images were read with an Odyssey infrared imaging system (LI-COR Biosciences).

Serum Biomarker Profiling Protocol

Serum samples were obtained preoperatively or before white light cystoscopy. Venous blood (10 ml) was collected and centrifuged at 900 rpm for 10 minutes. The serum was then separated, aliquoted in 2 ml fractions and stored at −80°C until further use. Protein serum levels were assessed by the multiplexed particle-based flow cytometric cytokine assay (Vignali, 2000). Kits for VEGF-A, VEGF-C and VEGF-D were purchased from Millipore (Zug, Switzerland), for MMP-2, MMP-3 and MMP-7 from R&D Systems (Oxon, UK) and for VEGF-R2 and VEGF-R3 from eBioscience (Vienna, Austria). The procedures closely followed the manufacturer’s instructions. The analysis was conducted using a conventional flow cytometer (Guava EasyCyte Plus, Millipore, Zug, Switzerland) [22 (link)].

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.
