Western blotting and Immunohistochemically staining were performed as previously described [35 (link)]. The primary antibodies used in WB concludes of ESR1 (ab108398, 1:2000, Abcam), cyclin d1(#2978, 1:2000, Cell Signaling Technology), DICER1 (#3363, 1:2000, Cell Signaling Technology), NICD (#2421, 1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology), Vinculin (#13901, 1:5000, Cell Signaling Technology), NUMB (ab14140, 1:2000, Abcam), GADPH (#5174, 1:5000, Cell Signaling Technology). For immunobiological assay, the slides were incubated with anti-CD44 antibody (#3570, 1:500, Cell Signaling Technology), ALDH1 antibody (#54135, 1:500, Cell Signaling Technology) and NUMB antibody (ab14140, 1:1000, Abcam).

Whole cell extracts (WCE) were prepared in RIPA buffer (Sigma) with added phosphatase and complete protease inhibitors (Roche). Protein concentration was determined using the Bio-Rad DC protein assay (Bio-Rad). Where indicated, 10 or 15 μg of protein was boiled for 5 min, electrophoresed on 10% SDS-PAGE gels and electroblotted on PVDF membranes (Bio-Rad) for western blotting with the following antibodies: ERα (G-20, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), DICER1, PTEN (Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA) and β-actin (loading control; Sigma). Bands were visualized using Carestream Image Station 4000R PRO with Carestream Molecular Imaging Software Version 5.0.2.30 (Carestream Health, Inc., New Haven, CT, USA) and quantified by UN-SCAN-IT Graph Digitizer Software 7.1 (Silk Scientific, Orem, UT, USA). The values were normalized to loading control and the normalized values for vehicle-treated and/or control-transfected cells were set to 1 for comparison within each cell line.

Western Blot Analysis of DICER1 and DROSHA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Western Blot analyses were performed as previously described [31 (link),34 (link)] with endothelial cells lysed using commercial lysis buffer (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) supplemented with a premade protease- and phosphatase-cocktail (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Cell debris were removed by centrifugation for 5 min at 15,000× g, 4 °C. SDS-PAGE was performed with equal amounts of protein per lane, followed by transfer to nitrocellulose membrane. Then, membranes were incubated with primary antibody solutions of DICER1 (Cell Signaling Technology; clone D38E7; 1:1000), DROSHA (Cell Signaling Technology; clone D28B1; 1:1000) and β-Actin (clone AC-15, Sigma Aldrich) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Protein detection was achieved with peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies and the ECL system (Amersham Bioscience, Amersham, UK).

Protein (30 μg) was subjected to 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and electrophoretically transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA). Protein blots were incubated separately with antibodies against Dicer1 (No. 3363, 1:500, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA), FABP1 (HPA028275, 1:100, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), or β-actin (1:4000, Sigma-Aldrich), probed with the appropriate alkaline phosphatase-conjugated secondary antibody, and detected using chemiluminescence. Immunoreactive protein bands were visualized by adding CDP-Star reagents (Roche Diagnostics, GmbH). Band signal intensities were quantified using Quantity One densitometric software (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA).

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.
