Staining was conducted as previously published [11 (link), 22 (link)]. RFP staining: rabbit anti-RFP (Abcam, Cambridge, UK) 1:30 dilution, Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit secondary (Invitrogen); CDH1 staining: rabbit E-cadherin antibody (24E10; Cell Signaling Technology, Boston, MA, USA) 1:400 dilution. Internal negative controls were exposed to rabbit IgG or 10% goat serum rather than primary antibody. Images were captured on a Nikon TE2000 inverted microscope with IPLab software (BD Biosciences, Rockville, MD, USA), original magnification at 200× (RPF) or 400× (CDH1).
Metastases were calculated as a ratio of the number of RFP-positive cells versus the total amount of cells (determined by DAPI nuclear stain) per field of view. Points represent the ratio of RPF-positive cells versus DAPI for each section examined with mean for each group represented as horizontal black bar. SEM for each group indicated in red.

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.
