For LRP6 and LC3B immunoblots, lysates were resolved on 4-20% gradient gels. Co-immunoprecipitations were performed as previously described(21 (link)). Briefly, AsPC-1 lysates were pre-cleared with A/G-PLUS agarose beads (Santa Cruz; sc-2003) and immunoprecipitated using antibody to β-catenin (BD Transduction Laboratories; 610153), VDR (Santa Cruz; sc-1008) or control isotype-matched IgG (Santa Cruz; sc-2025 or Abcam ab46540). After multiple washes, immune complexes were boiled in 6× SDS-load dye, resolved by SDS-PAGE and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes for immunoblotting.

Tumor exosomes (10 µg protein) in 0.5 mL PBS were mixed overnight at 4°C with 5 µL of 4 µM aldehyde-activate latex beads (4% w/v) (Invitrogen). The beads were then blocked by adding 0.5 mL of 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 hr followed by 0.1 mL of 100 mM glycine for an additional hour. The beads were then washed and resuspended in PBS. Antibodies included rabbit anti-alix (sc-99010; Santa Cruz) and rabbit anti-tubulin (sc-5546; Santa Cruz) as an isotype control followed by CY3-labeled donkey anti-rabbit Ig. The primary antibody was incubated with the beads for 1 hr on ice, washed twice, followed by an additional 1 hr with the labeled secondary. The beads were again washed and analyzed. FITC-annexin 5 (BD Biosciences) was used as described by the manufacturer. Samples included BSA-blocked beads and exosome-beads incubated in the presence and absence of Ca2+ (1 mM).

Blots were blocked and incubated at 4°C with primary antibodies diluted in TBS/0.1% Tween-20 plus 3% bovine serum albumin. Primary antibodies used were HDAC7-Abcam (Ab12174) 1:2000 dilution; α-TUBULIN- Santa Cruz (SC-5546) 1:1000 dilution; MYC- Santa Cruz (SC-40) 1:1000 dilution; MITF- Abcam (Ab12039) 1:1000 dilution; ACTIN- Santa Cruz (SC-1616) 1:2,000 dilution; FLAG—Sigma-Aldrich (F1804) 1:5,000 dilution. Horseradish-peroxidase conjugated secondary antibodies were diluted in TBS/0.1% Tween-20 plus 5% nonfat dry milk. Secondary antibodies used were from G.E. Health Systems: Amersham ECL anti-mouse (NA-931) and anti-rabbit (NA-934) at 1:8000, or Santa Cruz: anti-goat (SC-2020) at 1:12,000 dilution.

Proteins (30 µg) extracted from the heart tissue samples were separated on 10% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes (Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., Basel, Switzerland). The membranes were then incubated using antibodies against Rabbit LC3 (16–18 kDa; 1:1,000, L8918; Sigma-Aldrich Co.), Rabbit SQSTM1 (62 kDa; 1:1,000, SC-25575; Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc., Dallas, TX, USA), and beclin 1 (60 kDa; 1:1,000, #3738; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA), after which the blots were visualized using enhanced chemiluminescence (RPN 2232; Amersham/GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden). β-actin (43 kDa; 1:5,000, SC-5546; Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc.) served as the loading control. The molecular band intensity was determined as a ratio relative to that of loading control.

Frozen liver sections (8-μm) were fixed in acetone (−20 °C for 20 min) and washed with tap water in a running type, then slides were incubated a blocking buffer (5% normal serum in 0.3% Triton™ X-100 in a 10 mM PBS) for 40 min. Then, mouse-anti-CHOP (CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein homologous protein) antibody (diluted in 1:100, #2895, Cell Signaling) with the antibody dilution buffer (1% BSA with 0.3% Triton™ X-100 in 10 mM PBS) was applied and incubated overnight. After incubation, the rabbit-α-tubulin antibody (diluted 1:1000, #sc-5546, Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, USA) further incubated for overnight at RT. After washing the primary antibodies, secondary goat anti-mouse or rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary antibodies (Goat-anti-mouse Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugate and Goat-anti-rabbit-Alexa Fluor® 594 conjugate) was applied. The cell-based immunofluorescence analyses were conducted according to the manufacture’ protocol against CHOP. All histopathological features were examined under microscopy circumstance (200× or 400× magnification, IX71; Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

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.
