Cells were reverse-transfected with siRNAs in 6-well plates as described above and 48 h later protein was isolated in RIPA buffer and quantified using the Pierce BCA protein assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Protein expression was measured by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and Western immunoblotting with a c-Myc antibody (D3N8F; Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA) diluted 1:1000 in blocking buffer overnight at 4°C. Membranes were stripped before probing with a Beta-actin (β-actin) antibody (AC-74, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) as a control for protein loading. Chemiluminescence (Clarity Western ECL substrate, Bio-Rad), was used to image bands using the Gel Logic 2200 Imaging system (Kodak, New York, USA).

Baseline SR-BI Expression in Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This experiment was performed in order to assess the baseline expression of SR‐BI, the receptor for our HDL‐mimicking nanoparticles (HPPS), in different cancer cell lines. The expression of SR‐BI on the cell surface is a requirement for uptake of HPPS. KB, HT1080, Hep3B, SNU398, and Huh7 HCC cell lines were seeded on a six‐well plate at a density of 2 × 105 cells per well and grown for 24 hours. Cell lysates were prepared with radio immunoprecipitation assay buffer plus complete protease inhibitors (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). Protein concentration was determined by bicinchoninic acid assay (Pierce Biotechnology, Rockford, IL) and immunoblotted using antibodies specific for SCARB1 (anti‐SR‐BI antibody EP1556Y, 1:1,000; Abcam, Inc.). Immunoreactive proteins were detected using goat anti‐mouse horseradish peroxidase‐conjugated secondary antibody (GenScript, Pascataway, NJ) and Clarity Western enhanced chemiluminescence (Bio‐Rad Laboratories Ltd., Ontario, Canada). Membranes were stripped and immunoblotted with a mouse monoclonal antibody against beta‐actin (1:5,000; Sigma). Imaging was carried out using a Gel Logic 2200 Imaging System (Kodak, Rochester, NY).

The amount of free fatty acids in the digesta after GI digestion was estimated as described previously (Corte-Real, Desmarchelier, Borel, Richling, Hoffmann, & Bohn, 2018) , based on the titration against sodium hydroxide (NaOH 0.1 M), using phenolphthalein as an indicator.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel-electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was carried out to study completeness of protein digestion. Samples were denatured at 95 o C for 5 min. in Lämmli buffer.
About 22 µg of protein per pocket was loaded to a 15% acrylamide and 0.4% bisacrylamide gel (gastro-intestinal digestion) and 45 g of protein per pocket was loaded to a 10% acrylamide/0.3% bisacrylamide gel (gastric digestion). Marker was Invitrogen novex see blue plus 2 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Gel was run at 80 V (30 min.) plus 100 V (90 min.). Running buffer contained SDS (0.1%), glycine (190 mM), tris-HCl (25 mM). Fixation/staining was done with methanol/acetic acid/coomassie brilliant blue R (50%, 10%, 0.1%) (30 minutes), destaining in methanol/glacial acetic acid/water (30%, 10%, 60%, 3 h).

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.
