Moreover, we also verified the differential expression of CCL20, BTG2, IL7R, and TLR2 between normal bronchial epithelial cell line (16-HBS) and lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549) by utilizing Western blotting. 16-HBS and A549 cell lines were purchased from the Cell Bank of the Type Culture Collection of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). Protein concentrations were evaluated through the BCA Assay kit (CWBIO). Western blotting was performed as seen previously (Wang et al., 2020 (link)). Briefly, 15 ug proteins were loaded onto 8–15% polyacrylamide gels. After transfer, the NC membranes (Boster) were blocked with 5% skimmed milk at room temperature for 2 h. Next, membranes were incubated with primary antibodies [CCL20 (Affinity, 1:300), BTG2 (proteintech, 1:300), IL7R (Affinity, 1:300), TLR2 (proteintech, 1:1000)], and GAPDH (Elabscience, 1:3000) for 2 h at room temperature and then at 4°C overnight.

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.
