Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The relative protein expressions of MRP, LRP, BCRP, Bcl2, and PKC-α in HepG2 and HepG2/DOX cells and tumor tissues were detected by western blotting. Total proteins in cells or tumor tissues were extracted by RIPA buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China), and then the protein concentration was detected using a bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay kit (Solarbio, USA). After 20-μg protein samples were separated on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel and transferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes, the membranes were blocked with 5% nonfat milk and washed with Tris-buffered saline containing Tween 20 (TBST). The membranes were incubated with the primary antibodies against MRP (DF8801, Affinity), LRP1 (ab92544, Abcam), BCRP (ab207732, Abcam), Bcl2 (ab196495, Abcam), PKC-α (ab32376, Abcam), and β-actin (ab8226, Abcam) overnight at 4°C. The membranes were then washed with TBST and further incubated with the horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody for 1.5 h at room temperature. Finally, the protein bands were exposed to the chemiluminescent reagent (enhanced chemiluminescence) for 3 min and captured with the Chemi Capture software.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Deparaffinized sections of formaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded mouse intestinal epithelium were rehydrated with ddH2O for 5 min. For antigen retrieval, slides were heated in preheated 1× target retrieval solution (DAKO) for 30 to 70 min at 90 °C, followed by cooling for 20 min. Endogenous peroxidase was inactivated with 3% H2O2. For pERK staining, sections were blocked with 5% normal goat serum in TBS-T. Sections were then incubated with primary anti-pERK antibody (Cell Signaling Technology antibody 4370, diluted 1:400) overnight at 4 °C in a humidified chamber, followed by SignalStain boost anti-rabbit IgG polymer (Cell Signaling Technologies) and diaminobenzidine (DAKO) as recommended by the manufacturer. Immunostaining for PKCα used anti-PKCα antibody from Abcam (ab32376) as we have described (26 (link)). Controls for staining specificity involved omission of primary antibody or replacement of the primary antibody with normal rabbit serum. Sections were counterstained with hematoxylin and dehydrated before mounting with coverslips.

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.
