Human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs, Lonza/Fischer Scientific, Göteborg, Sweden) were seeded on poly-L lysine-coated glass coverslips, placed in a 24-well plate, and maintained in bronchial epithelium cell medium (BEpiCM, ScienCell, Carlsbad, CA, USA) in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37 °C until 80–90% confluence. After washing and fixation in 4% paraformaldehyde, cells were permeabilized using Triton X-100 (0.1% in phosphate-buffered saline, PBS). This was followed by washing, blocking with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS with Tween® 20 (PBST), and labeling with a murine monoclonal antibody against p63 (1:250; ab735, Abcam, Cambridge, UK). This was visualized after incubation at room temperature (RT) for 1 h with an Alexa Fluor 594-conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (1:500; Thermo Fischer Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). A primary murine monoclonal antibody against MUC5AC was used (1:250; MA1-38223, Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and visualized using the method described for detection of p63. Nuclei were stained using 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Prolong Gold antifade reagent with DAPI, Thermo Fisher Scientific).

Western Blot and Slot Blot Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The protocol used for western blotting was previously reported (Suico et al., 2014 (link), Sato et al., 2012 (link)). Western blots were probed with antibodies against ZIP2 (#ab99071; Abcam) and Hsc70 (#ADI-SPA-815; Enzo Life Sciences), followed by incubation with appropriate horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies. The Amersham ECL Western Blotting Detection Reagent (GE Healthcare) was used to visualize the blots.
MUC5AC protein secretion into the medium was detected by slot blotting. The protocol used was described previously (Nishimoto et al., 2010 (link)). An MUC5AC antibody was purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (#MA1-38223).

Immunofluorescence Staining of Lung Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) in PBS for 10 min and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich) in PBS for 5 min at room temperature. Cells were stained with the primary antibodies for 1 h and secondary antibodies for 45 min each at room temperature. DNA was counterstained with DAPI. Primary antibodies included the following: TP63 (1:100, CM163A; Biocare Medical), TTF1 (1:200, ab76013; Abcam), SOX2 (1:200, 09-0024; ReproCELL USA Inc., Beltsville, MD, USA), PE-conjugated human EpCAM (1:200, 12-9326-42; Thermo Fisher Scientific), MUC5AC (1:200, MA1-38223; Thermo Fisher Scientific), APC-conjugated human CD47 (1:20, 323123; Biolegend), PE-conjugated human CD26 (1:20, 302705; Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA), Alexa Fluor 647-conjugated human Podoplanin (1:200, 337007; Biolegend), and Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated human SP-C (1:200, sc-518029AF488, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA). Secondary antibodies included Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) secondary antibody (1:200, A11029; Thermo Fisher Scientific), Alexa Fluor 568 donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary antibody (A10042; Thermo Fisher Scientific), and Alexa Fluor 594 goat anti-mouse IgG (H + L) secondary antibody (A11032; Thermo Fisher Scientific).

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.
