CRP, total cholesterol, LDL, and HDL were measured by the UTMDACC Hospital Clinical Laboratory. Atorvastatin and its 2 hydroxylated metabolites (o-hydroxyatorvastatin and p-hydroxyatorvastatin) were measured in both serum and FNA samples using tandem mass spectrometers at the UTMDACC Pharmacology and Analytical CORE Laboratory as previously described [12 (link)].
Since certain HMG-CoAR genotypes can affect response to statins, we evaluated the rs12654264 gene for the A/A, A/W, or T/T genotypes and correlated with biomarker changes. The genotyping was carried at our institution’s DNA Analysis Core Facility.
Proliferation and apoptosis markers were immunostained in pre- and post-treatment FNA samples using unstained Thin-Prep slides. Staining for Ki-67 (ab66155, 1:100, Abcam), BCL-2 (ab692, 1:100, Abcam), and EGFR (CM063, 1:100, Biocare Medical). Phospho-EGFR (Tyrosine 1068) (2234, 1:50, Cell Signaling) was performed in the Pathology Immunohistochemistry Core Laboratory, according to the manufacturer’s instruction. Scoring of individual biomarker expression levels was performed by our 2 cytopathology collaborators (NS and YG), who recorded the percentage of positive-stained ductal cells.

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.
