Cells or tissues were added with 50 μL radio-immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) lysis buffer (containing protease inhibitor) (P0013J, Beyotime, Shanghai, China) and protein was gained and quantified by utilization of the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) kit (PC0020, Solarbio). Later, 50 μg of protein was subjected to electrophoresis, and then transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (66485, Pall Corp, East Hills, NY). The membrane was sealed in 5% skimmed milk powder at ambient temperature for 2 h and probed with primary antibodies against KIF3A (ab11259, 1:2000, Abcam), p21 (ab109520, 1:1000, Abcam), p-p21 (ab47300, 1:1000, Abcam), Bax (ab32503, 1:1000, Abcam), Bcl-2 (#4223, 1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology [CST]), Cle-caspase 3 (ab32042, 1:500, Abcam), CD63 (ab134045, 1:1000, Abcam), CD81 (#56039, 1:1000, CST), Hsp70 (#4876, 1:1000, CST), Calreticulin (ab92516, 1:1000, Abcam) and β-actin (#4970, 1:1000, CST) overnight at 4 °C. The next day, the membrane was further incubated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled secondary antibody goat anti-rabbit IgG (ab6721, 1:2000, Abcam) at ambient temperature for 1 h. Afterwards, the membrane was visualized by ECL reagent (BM101, Biomiga Inc), and then BioSpectrum 600 imaging system (Ultra-Violet Products, UK) was processed for detection and analysis. β-actin was used as normalizer.

Western blot was performed as previously described 20 (link). Primary antibody used in our studies included Ac-α-Tub, collagen type I (COL I), KIF3A (ab125356, ab34710, ab11259, Abcam), intraflagellar transport protein (IFT) 88 (MFG42775, Aviva Systems Biology), ARL13B (GTX122703, GeneTex), α-SMA, (1184-1, Eptomics), MRTF-A, SHH, SMO, GLI1 (A12598, A7726, A3274, and A8387, ABclonal, Wuhan, China), SRF, PTC1, α-Tub (AF6160, AF5202, AF7010, Affinity Biosciences, Cincinnati, OH, USA), Ac-α-Tub, LaminB, GLI2, GLI3, and GAPDH (sc-23950, sc-56143, sc-271786, sc-74478, and sc-25778, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA).The results were normalised with loading control and expressed as the fold of the specific bands to the control group. Western blotting was repeated at least three times.

Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature or methanol at −20°C for 10 min after quick rinses with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The cells were then permeabilized with washing solution (PBS with 0.1% Triton X-100) for 10 min and blocked with 3% bovine serum albumin for 30 min. Primary antibodies (goat IFT88 [1:100] [ab42497; Abcam, Cambridge, UK]; rabbit KIF3A [1:200] [ab11259; Abcam]; and rabbit BBS2 [1:100] [11188-2-AP; Proteintech, Rosemont, IL]) were diluted in the blocking solution. The cells were incubated in the primary antibody solution for 1 h at room temperature; this was followed by three rinses in the washing solution. The cells were then stained with secondary antibodies Alexa Fluor 647 (A21447; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and Cy3B (conjugating Cy3B maleimide; PA63131; GE, Pittsburgh, PA) to immunoglobulin G antibodies (711-005-152; Jackson, West Grove, PA)) for 1 h before being washed five times.

We used the following antibodies in our research: rabbit anti‐KIF3A Ig [1 : 500 dilution for immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays; 1 : 2000 dilution for immunoblot assays, ab11259; Abcam, Cambridge, UK], mice anti‐β‐actin Ig (1 : 2000 dilution, ab8227; Abcam), rabbit anti‐Ki67 Ig (1 : 2000 dilution, ab16667; Abcam), rabbit anti‐matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) Ig (1 : 1000 dilution, ab37150; Abcam) and rabbit anti‐MMP9 Ig (1 : 2000 dilution, ab38898; Abcam).
Primer sequences of quantitative PCR (qPCR) were designed as follows: KIF3A_F: 5′‐ATAGTTCCCGTTCCCATG‐3′, KIF3A_R: 5′‐CTGACCCACTGA TATCAGAG‐3′; GAPDH_F (glyceraldehyde‐3 phosphate dehydrogenase forward): 5′‐CGACCACTTTGTCAAGCTCA‐3′, GAPDH_R: 5′‐GGTTGAGCACAGGGTACTTTATT‐3′. shRNA plasmids [ready‐to‐package adenoassociated virus (AAV)] of KIF3A were purchased from Addgene (Cambridge, MA, USA).

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.
