Total protein from JEG3 and JEG3 tumors from different treatment groups was run in PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) gel and transferred to a PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) membrane and probed with the following primary antibodies, for 12 h, at 4 °C: caspase-3, caspase-9, p53, bax, bcl-2, AIF, cIAP 1 and cIAP 2 (Abcam Inc., Cambridge, MA, USA, 1:1000), X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., USA, 1:1000), poly (ADP-ribose)-polymerases (PARPs), and β-actin (Abcam Inc., Cambridge, MA, USA, 1:1000). Then, the blots were incubated with HRP (horseradish peroxidase)-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody for 1 h and washed. Following detection with FluorChem E Chemiluminescent Western Blot Imaging System (Cell Biosciences, Santa Clara, CA, USA), the blots were quantified by densitometry analysis, using Image J software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). All Western blot data shown are representative of at least three independent experiments.

Cell pellets were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer and the protein content was determined using a DC protein assay kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories). The proteins were run on electrophoresis gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (GE Osmonics Labstore) as described previously [50 (link)]. Membranes were blocked for 1 hr in blocking buffer, incubated with primary antibodies against XIAP (BD Biosciences, 610762; as per company, this antibody detects two bands and the lower band is specific for XIAP, as indicated by arrows in the figures); cIAP1 (Abcam, ab2399); cIAP2 (Epitomics, S2700; as per company, this antibody detects two bands and the upper band is specific for cIAP2, as indicated by arrows in the figures); Smac (BD Biosciences, 612246); caspase 3, (Cell Signaling, 9665) caspase 8 (Cell Signaling 9746), and caspase 9 (Cell Signaling, 9502); polyclonal antibody to Mcl-1 or Bcl-xL; and mouse monoclonal antibody to Bcl-2 (Santa Cruz, CA) or to GAPDH (Abcam, Cambridge, MA). The antibody to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase was from BIOMOL International (Plymouth Meeting, PA). Following washing with PBST, membranes were incubated for 1 hr with infrared dye-labeled secondary antibodies (LI-COR Biosciences), scanned, and visualized using a LI-COR Odyssey infrared imager.

Western Blot Analysis of Apoptosis Regulators

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The antibodies against A20, Survivin, c-IAP-1, c-IAP-2 and GAPDH were purchased from Abcam cooperation. Anti-rabbit or anti-mouse IgG antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA). Cells, which were transfected with plasmids, were then harvested for western blots. Total protein samples were extracted from HCC cells and performed by SDS-PAGE, and trans-printed to poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The membranes were blocked and then incubated with primary antibodies against A20 (1:2000 dilution), Survivin (1:500), c-IAP-1 (1:500), c-IAP-2 (1:500) or GAPDH (1:5000). The blots were then incubated with the HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (1:5000). At last, blots were developed with enhanced chemiluminescence reagents (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) by X-ray films.

25 µg of proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. Membranes were saturated for 1 h in tris-buffered saline (TBS) (50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl)/0.1% Tween-20/5% milk and incubated overnight at 4 °C with a rabbit primary antibody directed against: PARP (polyclonal, 1:1000, Cell Signaling), XIAP (monoclonal, 1:1000, Cell Signaling), cIAP1 (1:1000, Abcam) or caspase 9 (1:1000, Abcam). Membranes were washed three times with TBS/0.1% Tween 20 (TT) then incubated for 1 h 30 with a secondary antibody anti-rabbit (1:2000, Cell Signaling) coupled with HRP (horse raddish peroxydase). Membranes were washed three times with TT. Immunocomplexes were revealed by enhanced chemiluminescence (GE Healthcare, Amersham) and visualized with a photon camera (ChemiDoc, BioRad). Picture analyses were realized with Image Lab.

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.
