Quantitative Western Blot and qRT-PCR Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Primary antibodies (RRAS2, 1:1000, cat. no. ab209078, Abcam; GAPDH, 1:2000–3000, cat. no. sc-32233, Santa Cruz Biotechnology; CDKN2A, 1:500–1000, cat. no. sc-1207, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) targeting proteins of interest were used for the Western blot. A detailed description is included in Supplemental Methods. Total RNA used for expression quantification was reverse-transcribed into cDNA using random primers, and then mRNA levels were quantified by qRT-PCR and normalized to that of GAPDH (Roche LightCycler). For pA site usage quantification, RNAs were reverse-transcribed with oligo(dT) primer, followed by PCR with two pairs of primers (proximal and distal) targeting different regions of the cDNAs. Specifically, the region targeted by the proximal pair is common to both APA isoforms and the region targeted by the distal pair is unique to the longer isoform. qPCR signals from the proximal and distal pairs of primers were compared to indicate the relative expression of the two isoforms. All primer sequence information is listed in Supplemental Table S9.

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Cell Cycle and Receptor Proteins in Carcinoma and Pleomorphic Adenoma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Carcinoma and pleomorphic adenoma samples underwent cell cycle and receptor protein expression analysis using a tissue microarray. Sections (approximately 2–3 µm) were used for automated immunohistochemistry (Benchmark ULTRA, Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ, USA) of CDKN2A (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), TP53 (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark) and EGFR (Zytomed, Berlin, Germany).
Immunohistochemistry was scored semi-quantitatively as described previously17 (link): 0 (no apparent reaction), 1+ (positivity in <30% of tumour cells), 2+ (positivity in ≥30% but <60%) and 3+ (positivity in ≥60%). Immunostaining intensity was scored as 0 (absent), 1+ (weak), 2+ (intermediate) or 3+ (strong).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Tumor Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The tumor tissues were fixed in 10% formalin for 6 hours and embedded in paraffin. Conventional slices (4 µm) were harvested on glass slides pre-treated with 2% (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) APES acetone and dried in a 60 °C oven for 1–2 hours. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed on the slices using the BenchMark XT automatic multi-function histopathological detection system for the following antibodies: CDKN2A (SC-1661, 1:200; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), Calreticulin (CALR) (SC-373863, 1:200; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), ROS Proto-Oncogene 1, Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (ROS1) (SC-376217, 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), PIK3CA (SC-8010, 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, INC), Transcription Factor EB (TFEB) (SC-166736, 1:100; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), TBXT (SC-166962, 1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), Chromodomain Helicase DNA Binding Protein 3 (CHD3) (SC-55606, 1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.), Cut Like Homeobox 1 (CUX1) (SC-514008, 1:50; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.). The positive controls and negative controls of each antibody showed the appropriate results.

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.
