ChIP Assay for Twist1 Binding

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP assay was performed using a ChIP kit (Abcam) using an anti-Twist1 antibody (Abcam) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.33 (link) OA-FLSs were cultured to collect chromatin, which was immunoprecipitated with either Twist1 or control antibodies. Extracted DNA was amplified by PCR using primer pairs specific for the E box in the promoter region of miR-10a.

Proximity ligation assay was performed with the Duolink PLA kit (#Duo94104, ThermoFisher) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. HEK-293 T cells were fixed and incubated overnight with anti-TWIST1 antibody (#ab50518, Abcam; Cambridge, MA, USA) and anti-CBLC antibody (#F-2, Santa Cruz; CA, USA). After multiple washings, cells were incubated successively with PLA probes, ligation solution and amplification solution at 37℃. Cover-slips were mounted, and the images were photographed using Leica TCS SP5 confocal microscope (Leica Microsystems; Mannheim, Germany).

Immunohistochemical Analysis of VHL and Twist1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tissue sections were deparaffinized twice by xylene and then hydrated. Hydrogen peroxide (0.6%) was used to eliminate endogenous peroxidase activity. The sections were blocked with goat serum in Tris-buffered saline for 30 min. Sections were then incubated with anti-VHL antibody (Abcam, 1:100) and anti-Twist1 antibody (Abcam, 1:500) overnight at 4 °C. Secondary antibody was then applied and incubated at 37 °C for 1 hour. Sections were developed with diaminobenzidine and stopped with water. Photographs of representative fields were captured using a Leica CCD camera DFC420 connected to a Leica DMIRE2 microscope (Leica Microsystems Imaging Solutions, Cambridge, UK). Quantification of immunoreactivity was performed on digitally captured color images saved as TIFF files and analyzed using Image-Pro plus 6.0 (Media Cybernetics, Rockville, Maryland, USA). These methods were performed in accordance with the approved guidelines and regulations from the Research Ethics Committee of Huashan Hospital, Fudan University.

Immunoblot and Immunohistochemical Analysis of TWIST1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunoblot analysis was performed as previously described [25] using anti-TWIST1 antibody (1:1000 dilution; Abcam) and anti-GAPDH antibody (1:1000 dilution; Cell Signal Technology).
For the immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis, the excised tumors were xed with 4% paraformaldehyde and sectioned into 6-µm sections. Brie y, after depara nization, antigen retrieval and quenching of endogenous peroxidase activity, the slides were incubated with the primary antibody (TWIST1, 1:200 dilution, Abcam) overnight at 4 ℃ in a humid chamber. A negative control was obtained by replacing the primary antibody with a normal IgG. Thereafter, slides were incubated with the secondary antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Antibody binding was visualized using the DAB + Substrate Chromogen System (DAKO). Finally, sections were counterstained with hematoxylin, dehydrated, cleared, and photographed.
The immunohistochemistry scoring was performed by two independent observers. Unequivocal nuclear staining pattern for TWIST1 was interpreted based on the intensity as negative, weak, moderate and strong. Moderate to strong nuclear staining was considered to be positive reaction. The distribution of TWIST1 was scored as follows: negative (less than 50% of the cells being positive) and positive (where more than 50% of the cells were positive).

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.
