Cell adhesion assays were performed using 96-well round-bottomed microtiter plates (Immulon-2HB; Dynex Technologies, Inc.). The wells were coated overnight at 4°C with 10 μg/ml human fibronectin (GIBCO BRL), collagen I (Nitta Gelatin Co., Japan), laminin 111 (laminin 1; Invitrogen), laminin 211 (laminin 2; Invitrogen), and human laminin 511/521 (laminin10/11; R&D Systems), and then diluted with PBS and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin for 1 hour at 37°C. After washing, 10,000 cells were added and incubated for 60 minutes at 37°C. Antibodies against β1, α6, and α4 integrins, or the RGD and RAD peptides were added to the culture medium as potential inhibitors of cell adhesion. The plates were washed 3 times with PBS to remove unattached cells, and then the attached cells were identified by staining with crystal violet and evaluated using spectrophotometric analysis (wavelength; 600 nm).

Western Blot Analysis of Ventricular Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For Western blotting of total proteins, left ventricular tissues from KO and Control mice were homogenized in a modified RIPA buffer containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors (Roche, CA). Samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Li-Cor Biosciences, NE) using protocols published by our laboratory. Incubation with primary antibodies for PGM1, (HPA024637, Sigma-Aldrich), Laminin-211 (PA1-16730, Invitrogen), Dystroglycan (11017-AP Proteintech), pAkt473 (#9271,Cell signaling Technology), pGsk3β (#9336,Cell signaling Technology), Gapdh (#14C10,Cell signaling Technology) was conducted at a dilution of 1:1000 in antibody dilution buffer (Li-Cor Biosciences, NE) as described previously. 16 Primary antibodies were detected with IR dye-conjugated secondary antibodies and visualized by Odyssey Image Analyzer (Li-Cor Biosciences, NE). Quantitative analysis of the fluorescence signals was performed by Empiria Studio software (Li-Cor Biosciences, NE), and the results were normalized to the corresponding Gapdh abundance detected in the same samples.

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.
