DECMA-1, a mAb recognizing the extracellular domain of E-cadherin (provided by Rolf Kemler, Max-Planck Institute for Immunobiology) was used to detect E-cadherin. A mouse mAb recognizing FLAG (DYKDDDDK) was purchased from Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. (Osaka, Japan). Mouse mAbs recognizing β-catenin and TAZ were purchased from BD Biosciences (Lexington, KY, USA); mAbs recognizing vinculin, actin, and pan-cadherin were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Japan (Tokyo, Japan). Anti-Ki-67 was from Dako Japan (Tokyo, Japan). The rabbit mAbs, p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2), phospho-p44/42 MAPK (Erk1/2) (Thr202/Tyr204), Akt, phospho-Akt (Ser473), phospho-Merlin (Ser518), YAP, and the rabbit polyclonal antibody, phospho-Merlin (Ser518) were from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA, USA). Rabbit anti-Merlin (NF2) and anti-CTGF (connective tissue growth factor) were from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Dallas, TX, USA). Rabbit anti-cyclin D1 was obtained from MBL Japan (Nagoya, Japan). All secondary antibodies were obtained from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Inc. (West Grove, PA, USA).

Lysates from additional inflamed and non-inflamed animals (generated using the protocol described earlier) were run on 4–12% Novex tris-gly gels (Invitrogen). After transfer, membranes were probed with primary antibodies as follows: phospho-Merlin (Ser518) from Cell Signaling (13281) used at 1:1,000; phospho-Pak1/2 Ser144/Ser141 from Cell Signaling (2606) used at 1:1,000; Actin from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (sc-1616) used at 1:10,000; Gapdh used at 1:10,000 from Cell Signaling (D16H11). Secondary antibodies were anti-mouse and anti-rabbit IgG HRP-linked as appropriate (Cell Signaling 7076, 7074; used at 1:5,000).

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.
