E cadherin antibody

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The E-cadherin antibody is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and analysis of the E-cadherin protein. E-cadherin is a cell-cell adhesion molecule that plays a key role in maintaining the structural integrity of epithelial tissues. The antibody can be used in various immunological techniques, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry, to study the expression and localization of E-cadherin in biological samples.

The fresh tissues were homogenized in a RIPA buffer containing 1 mM PMSF. Equivalent amounts of protein (30 μg) were subjected to Western blot analysis. Proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and immunoblotted with the indicated antibodies as follows: E-Cadherin antibody (Cat. No. A20798, ABclonal, Wuhan, China), N-Cadherin antibody (Cat. No. A19083, ABclonal, China) and β-actin antibody (Cat. No. K200058M, Solarbio, Beijing, China). After being incubated overnight at 4 °C, the membranes were washed and incubated with the secondary antibody (Cat. No. ZB-2301, ZSGB-Bio, China and Cat. No. ZB-2305, ZSGB-Bio, Beijing, China). The washed membranes were visualized using a chemiluminescence reagent (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and exposed to X-ray film. Data were quantitated using the Image J Software.

Blood serum was collected by cardiac puncture from overnight-fasted mice and tested for cholesterol, HDL, and triglyceride levels. Blood glucose levels from overnight-fasted mice were measured by glucose test strips (Roche). Liver tissue was fixed in 4% formaldehyde for 8 h and then preserved in 70% ethanol. Liver was embedded in paraffin, sliced, and mounted on slides, which were then stained with an E-Cadherin antibody and Cherry secondary antibody as well as DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) (Sigma). Cell size was calculated using the Image J software.

Cells were seeded on the cover-slips in 24-well plates and cultured overnight, then fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. After washing with PBS, cells were permeabilised in 0.25% Triton X-100 for 15 min, washed with PBS, and blocked with 5% BSA for 60 min. Then cells were incubated with α-SMA antibody (Abcam, USA; 1:100), E-cadherin antibody (Sigma, USA; 1:100) overnight at 4 °C. After washing with PBS, cells were incubated with an Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated anti-mouse IgG F(abʹ)2 fragment (Invitrogen, USA; 1:200) or an Alexa Fluor 549-conjugated anti-mouse IgG F(abʹ)2 fragment (Invitrogen, USA; 1:200) at room temperature in the dark. The cells were observed using a fluorescence microscope (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan).

Quantifying Shed E-cadherin in Transfected Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Transfected cells were plated at 30,000 cells/cm2 for 24 hr in 3.5-cm dishes. The culture media were replaced with DMEM/GlutMAX/0.5%FBS/1%Pen/Strep (2 ml). After 48 hr, supernatant containing shed E-cadherin was collected and concentrated with a 10-kDa pass AmiconUltra Centrifugal Filter (Millipore). Shed E-cadherin and total cellular E-cadherin were probed by western blotting using an E-cadherin antibody (Sigma). Total and shed E-cadherin bands were normalized to tubulin before the ratio of shed E-cadherin and total cellular E-cadherin was compared between control and efnB1/B2 KD groups.

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.
