Total protein was extracted from cultured cells and analyzed as previously described 27 (link), 28 (link). A total of 50 μg of protein extracts were loaded to 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore, USA). After incubated with the primary antibodies overnight at 4 ℃ and then with HRP conjugated secondary antibodies (Promega, USA) for 1 h at room temperature, the membranes were subjected to the ECL chemiluminescence system (Pierce, USA). All of the experiments were repeated thrice. Primary antibodies used: CBX8 from Sigma Aldrich; Snail, Slug and Vimentin from BD Biosciences; E-cadherin and N-cadherin from Cell Signaling Technology; CBX6, Fibronectin and GAPDH from Santa Cruz.

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.
