Cellular proteins were extracted using radio immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer, and protease inhibitors were added to the lysate to protect the proteins. Anti-FTH polyclonal antibody (ab65080, Abcam), anti-αS1002/S100A2 (ab109494, Abcam), S100A4 (ab124805, Abcam), and S100P (ab133554, Abcam) monoclonal antibodies were diluted as the first antibody in a 1:1,000 ratio. Anti-mouse IgG H&L horseradish peroxidase (HRP), goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L HRP, and mouse anti-β actin monoclonal antibodies (Beijing Dingguo Chang Sheng Company) were diluted to a 1:2,500 ratio. Primary antibodies and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes were incubated overnight at 4 °C. The next day, the PVDF membranes were washed 3 times in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) buffer. Then, they were incubated with secondary antibodies, which were labeled with HRP for 1 h. Target protein bands were determined by enhanced chemiluminescence, and β-actin was an internal reference to achieve consistent sample loading per well. Each experiment was repeated 3 times.

Cells were cultured to confluent monolayers on glass coverslips and fixed in ice-cold methanol for 20 min, except for S100P stained cells, which were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. Following a 10 min PBS wash, cells fixed with paraformaldehyde were incubated in NH4Cl 50 mM for 10 min, and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 min, at room temperature. Cells were blocked with 3% BSA in PBS and stained with primary antibodies, rabbit anti-S100P (ab133554, Abcam, UK) and mouse anti-E-cadherin (610,182, BD Biosciences, USA), followed by a 1 h incubation in the dark with Alexa 488 or Alexa 594-conjugated secondary IgG (Invitrogen, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). Coverslips were mounted with Vectashield with DAPI (Vector Laboratories, USA) and images acquired on a Carl Zeiss Apotome Axiovert 200 M Fluorescence Microscope (× 20 and × 40 objectives; Carl Zeiss, Germany) with an Axiocam HRm camera. Images were processed with the Zeiss Axion Vision 4.8 software.

Protein was extracted from endometrial tissue samples or cultured cells using RIPA buffer containing protease inhibitors (89,900, Thermo, USA). Equal amounts of 30 μg protein were separated by 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, United States). Then, the membranes were incubated with the following specific primary antibodies: S100P (ab133554, Abcam, UK, 1:1000), Bax (5023 T, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000), Bcl-2 (4223S, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000), HOXA10 (ab191470, Abcam, UK, 1:1000), GAPDH (5174, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000). Afterwards, the membranes were incubated with the corresponding horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Beyotime Biotechnology, China, 1:1000). Finally, protein bands were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) according to the manufacturer’s (Millipore) instructions.

Total protein was isolated using RIPA buffer (Amresco, USA) containing protease inhibitor cocktail. Protein extract was separated on SDS-PAGE gels (Amresco, USA) followed by transfer to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The membranes were subsequently blocked in 5% defatted milk and incubated with primary antibody overnight at 4 °C. Following incubation with the appropriate secondary antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase, the blots were visualised using the enhanced chemiluminescence (FDbio-pico ECL, China). The following antibodies were included in western blotting: anti-S100P (Abcam #ab133554, UK), anti-SLC2A5 (Abcam #ab36057, UK), anti-E-cadherin (Cell Signaling Technology #3195, USA), anti-N-cadherin (Cell Signaling Technology #13116, USA), anti-Vimentin (Cell Signaling Technology, #5741, USA), anti-GAPDH (Proteintech #10494-1-AP, USA), anti- Mouse IgG (Cell Signaling Technology #5873, USA) and anti-Rabbit IgG (Cell Signaling Technology #14708, USA).

Paraffin slides were dewaxed with xylene for 20 min and 100%, 95%, and 75% ethanol in sequence for a total of 30 min and boiled in Antigen Retrieval Buffer (citrate buffer, pH 6.0, or Tris-EDTA buffer, pH 9.0) (ab93678 and ab93684, Abcam, USA) at 100°C for 15 minutes. The slides were blocked with 2% goat serum for 1 hour at room temperature and incubated with primary antibodies at 4°C overnight. The following primary antibodies were used: S100P (ab133554, 1:100, Abcam, USA) and β-hCG (ab9582, 1:50, Abcam, USA). After washing with TBST buffer, the slides were incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature (GK500710, Gene Tech, China). HRP-conjugated antibodies were detected with diaminobenzidine (DAB) (GK500710, Gene Tech, China) for 10 min. The nuclei were then stained with hematoxylin solution (ab220365, Abcam, USA) for an addition 5 min. Images were captured with an Axio Scope A1 (Zeiss, Germany).

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.
