The western blot procedure used for the tumor extracts was the same used for the cell lines.
An MSD assay, more sensitive than immunoblots with tissue extracts, was used to identify target inhibition ex vivo in tissue samples. It was based on a previously described protocol with minor modifications [58 (link)]. The protein concentration was determined using a Direct Detect spectrophotometer according to the manufacturer's instructions.

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.
