Protein Expression Analysis in Pancreatic Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pancreas and pancreatic acinar cells were lysed with a radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (Biosesang, Gyeonggi‐do, Korea) containing protease and phosphatase inhibitor cocktails (GenDepot, Barker, TX). The proteins were resolved by sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) and transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes. The blots were immunostained with the appropriate primary antibodies followed by secondary antibodies conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. Antibody binding was detected with an enhanced chemiluminescence reagent (Bio‐Rad. Hercules, CA, USA). The primary antibodies against the following factors were used: ANGPTL4 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA, cat# 40‐9800), GAPDH, and β‐actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA, cat# sc‐47724, and sc‐47778). The secondary antibodies were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology.

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.
