Total protein from tissues or cells was initially isolated using a high-efficiency radioimmunoprecipitation assay lysis buffer (R0010, Solarbio, Beijing, China). Thereafter, the concentration of the extracted protein was estimated with a bicinchoninic acid kit (20201ES76, YEASEN, Shanghai, China). After separation using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein was blotted onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. Following 1-h blocking at ambient temperature using 5% bovine serum albumin, the membranes were probed overnight at 4°C with primary rabbit antihuman antibodies (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) to PDCD4 (ab51495, 1: 100), PD-L1 (ab205921, 1: 50), PI3K (ab32089, 1: 100), phosphorylated (p)-PI3K (ab182651, 1: 100), Akt (ab8805, 1: 50), and p-Akt (ab81283, 1: 500). The following day, the membranes were reprobed with goat antirabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG) (ab205718, 1: 1000, Abcam) labeled by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) at ambient temperature for 1 h. The immunocomplexes on the membrane were developed with VILBER Fusion FX5 (Vilber Lourmat, Limoges, France), followed by the quantification of band intensities using the ImageJ 1.48u software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MA). The relative protein expression was represented by the ratio of the gray value of the target band to that of GAPDH.

The total protein of transfected cells were obtained by radioimmunoprecipitation lysis buffer (Beyotime, Shanghai, China), and then the protein samples were subsequently separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and then the proteins were accordingly transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Millipore), which were then blocked with 5% skimmed milk for 1 h at ambient temperature. Notably, the membranes were specifically incubated with rabbit anti-PDCD4 antibody (1:1000, ab51495, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) or mouse anti-GAPDH antibody (1:2000, ab8245, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) at 4° C overnight, and then with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies at ambient temperature for 1 h. Ultimately, the protein bands were developed by an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (Pierce, Waltham, MA, USA).

We used paraffin-embedded sections of the colons of the mice in all groups for the immunohistochemical analysis. Serial histological sections (4 μm thickness) were made from each paraffin wax block. Immunohistochemical staining was performed automatically (Ventana Benchmark XTsystem; Ventana, Touchstone, Arizona, USA), according to the manufacturer's instructions. The primary antibodies were anti-MCM2 rabbit monoclonal antibody (no. 3619, anti-MCM2 (D7611)XP, 1:400 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA), anti-β-catenin rabbit polyclonal antibody (#9661, 1:200 dilution; Cell Signaling Technology) and anti-PCDC4 rabbit polyclonal antibody (ab51495, 1:500 dilution; Abcam, Inc. Cambridge, MA, USA). In each case, the positive and negative controls were run concurrently. As the final step, the sections were lightly counterstained with Mayer's hematoxylin (Merck, Tokyo, Japan).
Immunoreactivity for antibodies against MCM2, PDCD4 and β-catenin was assessed in the lesions (high-grade dysplasia) that developed in groups 1 through 3 using a microscope (Olympus BX41, Olympus Optical Co., Tokyo, Japan). The intensity and localization of the immunoreactivity against the primary antibodies were determined by a pathologist (T.T.) who was unaware of the treatment group to which the slide belonged.

Following transfection, cells and tissues were lysed for 48 h using RIPA Lysis and Extraction Buffer (Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Beijing, China), and the protein concentration was measured using Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Following heating at 100°C for 10 min in the presence of a loading buffer, equal amounts of protein lysates (50 µg) were separated using 10% SDS-PAGE (Bio-West Inc., Logan, UT, USA) at 100 V for 1 h, and transferred onto Invitrogen nitrocellulose membranes (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) at 120 V for 1 h. Following blocking with 5% skimmed milk (diluted with PBS), the membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with the following primary antibodies: CYP27A1 (ab126785; 1:500; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), c-myc (ab32072; 1:500; Abcam), RB (ab181616; 1:500; Abcam), Ki-67 (ab15580; 1:500; Abcam), CDK2 (ab32147; 1:500; Abcam), p21 (ab109520; 1:500; Abcam), p53 (ab32049; 1:500; Abcam), PDCD4 (ab51495; 1:500; Abcam), SOX2 (ab92494; 1:500; Abcam), β-actin (ab8227; 1:500; Abcam). Subsequently, the membranes were incubated with secondary goat monoclonal (RMG01) to rabbit IgG Fab region (Biotinylated; ab222772; 1:10,000; Abcam) at room temperature for 2 h, and proteins were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence (Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.).

The cellular protein was extracted using RIPA lysis buffer supplemented with proteinase inhibitor (KeyGen, Nanjing, China). Briefly, 20 μg of protein samples were separated using SDS/PAGE and then transferred on to PVDF membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, U.S.A.). The PVDF membranes were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C, including anti-PDCD4 (ab51495; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, U.S.A.) and anti-β-actin (ab8224; Abcam). Subsequently, the PVDF membranes were incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 h at 37°C. The bands were developed using ECL Western Blotting Detection Kit (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, U.S.A.).

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.
