Cell lysates were prepared using a lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-Cl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 1% Triton X-100) supplemented with protease inhibitors (Sigma-Aldrich). Subsequently, the proteins (50 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred onto PVDF membranes (Bio-Rad; Hercules, CA, USA), and incubated with primary antibodies and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Bio-Rad). Protein bands were visualized using the Miracle-Star Western Blot Detection System (iNtRON Biotechnology, Seongnam, Korea). Antibodies against NRP2 (1:1,000 dilution, #sc-13117; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA), phospho-FAK (1:1,000 dilution, #sc-81493; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), FAK (1:1,000 dilution, #sc-557; Santa Cruz Biotechnology), phospho-MAPKAPK2 (1:1,000 dilution, #3041; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA), MAPKAPK2 (1:1,000 dilution, #3042; Cell Signaling Technology), and β-actin (1:5,000 dilution, #BS6007M; Bioworld Technology, St. Louis Park, MN, USA) were used.

Protein expression levels were determined by western blot analysis as previously described [71 (link)]. Cells were lysed in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris, 5 mM EDTA, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% NP 40, and 0.2 mM PMSF. The protein concentrations in the total cell lysates were measured by using bovine serum albumin as the standard. Samples containing equal amounts of protein were separated via sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE), and proteins were then transferred onto nitrocellulose membranes (Bio–Rad Laboratories). Membranes were blocked with 5% skim milk in Tris-buffered saline containing Tween 20 at RT. Then, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against MMP-2 (Cell Signaling #4022), MMP-9 (Cell Signaling #13667), total PI3K (Cell Signaling #4292), phospho-PI3K (Cell Signaling #4228), total Akt (Cell Signaling #4491), phospho-Akt (Cell Signaling #4060), total-ERK1/2 (Cell Signaling #9012), phospho-ERK1/2 (Cell Signaling #9101), total FAK (Santa Cruz, sc-558), phospho-FAK (Santa Cruz, sc-11765), or β-actin (Abcam, ab189073) overnight at 4 °C and then with HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BD Pharmingen, San Diego, CA, USA, 554021) and goat anti-mouse IgG (BD Pharmingen, 554002) secondary antibodies for 60 min at RT.

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.
