Isolation of proteins, SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting were performed in triplicates as described previously [39 (link)]. Following antibodies were used for Western blot detecting uPAR (antibody specifically targets IID7 of uPAR and detects all uPAR isoforms containing the domain II (DII) [40 (link)]), uPA (ab24121) can detect (depending on the cell line) the immature pro-uPA (at 50 kDa) and the mature uPA (at 34 kDa), PAI-1 (ab31280, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), vimentin (3390), progesterone receptor (PR, 3157), RHOC (3430, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA, USA), estrogen receptor (ER, sc-8002, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, DE), HER2 (A0485, Dako, Glostrup, DK), and actin (A5441, Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) as loading control in BT549, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-361, SKBR3, T47D and MCF7 breast cancer cells. uPAR was also detected in the cell supernatants whereas all the other proteins were detected in the cell lysates.

Equal concentration protein from cell lysates and CM were separated by 12% SDS/PAGE gels. The proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes and blocked with 5% skim milk. The membranes were probed using anti‐human ALDH1A3 (OTI4E8; OriGene Technologies, Rockville, MD, USA), tPA (ab227069; Abcam, Toronto, Canada), uPA (ab24121; Abcam), and PAI‐2 (ab47742; Abcam) antibodies. Anti‐rabbit IgG‐HRP (7074S; Cell Signaling Technology) secondary antibody was used for tPA, uPA, and PAI‐2 while anti‐mouse IgG‐HRP (7076S; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) secondary antibody was used for ALDH1A3. Immuno‐reactive proteins were detected by chemiluminescence (using Clarity ECL blotting substrate (Bio‐Rad)) and visualized with images captured with a ChemiDoc Imager (Bio‐Rad). Total protein was used as a loading control.

Total protein was extracted using a RIPA Lysis Kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China) by following the manufacturer’s protocol. Equal amounts of protein from each sample were electrophoretically separated using polyacrylamide gels, and then transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The membranes were blocked at 23–25 °C for 1 h and then incubated at 4 °C overnight with primary antibodies against GLIPR1 (ab198215, Abcam), PLAU (ab28230 and ab24121, Abcam), EGFR (ab52894, Abcam), p-EGFR (11862S, Cell Signaling Technology, Boston, MA, USA), caspase-1 (22915-1-AP, Proteintech Group, Chicago, IL, USA), GSDMD (ab209845, Abcam; 97558, Cell Signaling Technology), IL-1β (AF5103, Affinity Biosciences, Cincinnati, OH, USA), and β-actin (4970, Cell Signaling Technology). Then, the membranes were washed three times and incubated with an appropriate horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. The proteins were visualized using enhanced electro-chemiluminescence reagents (Beyotime Biotechnology), and the bands were analyzed using an imaging system (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA).

Total cell lysates were prepared using the radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.5% deoxycholic acid, and 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulphate). Total protein was separated through 6–10% sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to nitrocellulose filter membranes (Millipore, Billerica, USA). Subsequently, the membranes were blocked with a blocking buffer for 1 h at RT and incubated with the following primary antibodies: NLN (ab119802, Abcam), CCND1 (RM-9104-S, Thermo Scientific), PLAU (ab24121, Abcam) , SEPN1(sc-365824, Santa Cruz) , Actin (MAB1501, Millipore) and GAPDH (GTX627408, GeneTex) for overnight at 4 °C. Secondary labelling was performed using suitable horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody for 1 h at RT. Finally, proteins were visualised using WesternBrightTM enhanced chemiluminescence (Advansta Inc., USA) and detected using the BioSpectrumTW 500 Imaging System (UVP, 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.
