Western blot analysis was performed as described previously29 (link). Briefly, protein concentrations were estimated by the Bradford method, equal amount of protein (100 μg/lane) was diluted in 10 × sample buffer, boiled, and loaded onto 12% SDS-PAGE gels and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (Hybond-C, Amersham Biosciences, USA). The membranes were incubated overnight at 4 °C with the primary antibodies against β-actin, occludin, ZO-1, MLC, MLCK, MLC (S20) (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), claudin-5, MMP-2, MMP-9 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, USA), caveolin-1, Src, caveolin-1 and Src (Tyr416) (Cell Signaling, Beverly, Massachusetts, USA). Then the membranes were washed with TBST and incubated with the respective horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies at a 1:5000 dilution for 60 min at room temperature. The protein bands were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence, and the band intensities were quantified by densitometry and expressed as mean area density using the image J (Bethesda, MD, USA) software.

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.
