Whole protein was extracted by lysis buffer and denatured through heating at 100 °C for 5 min. Protein concentration in the supernatant was quantified by a BCA Protein Assay Reagent kit (Pro.23228, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). Dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis was conducted with 20 μg total protein loaded in each well. After electrophoresis, separated proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Millipore, Italy) in buffer. Following primary antibody (MUC1, Proteintech, 19976-1-AP, China; XPNPEP2, GeneTex, GTX109995, Irvine, CA, USA) and secondary antibody (Proteintech, 10230-1-AP, China) incubation, target protein bands were detected by an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (NCI5079, Thermo Fisher).

Quantitative Western Blot Analysis of Protein Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total cell lysates were prepared in radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) supplemented with a protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, Mannheirn, Germany). Protein concentrations were determined using a bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Total lysates (40 µg per sample) were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) followed by immunoblotting with primary antibodies against the following proteins: XPNPEP2 (GTX109995, 1:1000; GeneTex, Irvine, CA, USA), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH; ab9485, 1:2000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), E-cadherin (#3195, 1:2000; Cell Signaling Technology), Snail1 (#3879, 1:2000; Cell Signaling Technology), and vimentin (#5741, 1:2000; Cell Signaling Technology). After the membranes were washed, they were incubated with the corresponding horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), and the proteins were detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence system (Pierce, Thermo Fisher Scientific). The statistical data of the protein levels in the western blot were analyzed using the analysis tool in Image Lab 4.1 (Bio-Rad, Hercules, California, USA). We selected the weakest protein band in each group as the reference band.

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.
