Western blotting was carried out as previously described [27 (link)]. The primary antibodies used were anti-N-Cadherin (BD Biosciences, Breda, Netherlands #610920), anti-α-Smooth Muscle Actin (Sigma, Zwijndrecht, Netherlands #A2547), anti-Snail (Cell Signaling, Leiden, Netherlands #3879), anti-Smad2 (BD Biosciences, Breda, Netherlands #610842), anti-p-Smad2 (Cell Signaling, Leiden, Netherlands #3108), anti-Smad4 (Santa Cruz #sc7966), anti-TGFβRI (Santa Cruz, Heidelberg, Germany #sc 398), anti-TGFβRII (Santa Cruz, Heidelberg, Germany #sc-400), anti-Smad3 (Epitomics, Duiven, Netherlands #1735–1), anti-p-Smad3 (a kind gift from Dr Edward B Leof, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota) and anti-β-actin (Sigma, Zwijndrecht, Netherlands #A5441). All the secondary antibodies were from Sigma, Zwijndrecht, Netherlands. Western quantification was performed using image J software.

Western Blot Analysis of SMAD Proteins

Cell lysates were determined by a bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay kit. The proteins were subjected to 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). After that, the gels were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes, which were incubated with rabbit polyclonal anti-SMAD2 (dilution 1:800), anti-SMAD3 (1:1,000), anti-SMAD7 (1:1,200), and anti-GAPDH (1:600) antibodies (all BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) overnight at 4°C. After washing with PBS three times, the membranes were incubated with a secondary polyclonal peroxidase labeled antibody for 2 h, and detected using autoradiography films (Amersham HyperFilm ECL; GE Healthcare, Fairfield, Connecticut, USA). Quantification was performed on Quantity One.

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.
