Immunohistochemistry was performed on a Dako Autostainer Link 48 system. Briefly, the slides were baked for 20 minutes at 60°C, then deparaffinized and dehydrated before the antigen retrieval step. Heat-induced antigen retrieval was performed at pH 6 for 20 minutes in a Dako PT Link. The tissue was incubated with a peroxidase block and then antibody incubation (1:2000 dilution for CLTA antibody, Sigma HPA050918; 1:4000 dilution for CLTB antibody, Abnova H00001212-M01) for 20 minutes. The staining was scanned at 40x resolution in brightfield mode by Nanozoomer 2.0-HT (Hamamatsu) and visualized using the NDP.view 2 viewing software (Hamamatsu). The IHC staining was scored by different people blinded to the sample identity and relative to representative images shown in Figures 1B and S1B and the results were presented as average percentage of low and high expression of indicated protein. Paraffin-embedded tissue microarrays (BC04002a) of lung cancer primary tumors, metastases, and normal tissues were obtained from US Biomax, inc. The tumors were classified according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system. Among them, twenty-three were classified as stage I, fourteen as stage II, thirteen as stage III, and ten were lymph node metastases from lung squamous cell carcinoma.

Western Blot Analysis of Chloride Channels

HeLa cells were dissociated with trypsin and collected. After washing and centrifuge, 100 µL RIPA lysis buffer (Millipore 20–188) supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (Halt, 78429) was added and samples were incubated for 1 h on ice. After vortex, cell lysates were centrifuged at 21300 × g for 15 min at 4 °C. The supernatant was used for SDS-PAGE on 4–12% Bis-Tris gels (Invitrogen, NP0335) with Tris-buffered saline with 0.1% Tween-20 (TBS-T) at 150 V. Blotting was performed by iBlot (invitrogen) with nitrocellulose membranes (Invitrogen, IB301002) accordingly to the manufacturer’s protocol. Afterwards, membranes were incubated for 2 h in 5% milk in TBS-T. Primary antibodies [anti-CLCa/b (Millipore, AB9884, 1:5000), anti-CLCa (Sigma, HPA050918, 1:1000), or anti-CLCb (Abnova, H00001212-M01, 1:500)] were diluted in 5% milk/TBS-T and applied on the membranes overnight. After 5 times 5 min washing with TBS-T, secondary antibodies [anti-mouse IgG-HRP (Jackson ImmunoResearch Labs, 115-035-174, 1:2000) or anti-rabbit IgG-HRP (Jackson ImmunoResearch Labs, 211-032-171, 1:2000)] were diluted in 5% milk/TBS-T and applied on the membranes for 1 h. After washing with TBS-T, the membrane was imaged with ChemiDoc system (Bio-Rad) with ECL solution (cytiva, RPN2232). Then after washing, the membrane was stained with anti-βactin-HRP (Cell Signaling, 5125 S, 1:2000) and imaged.

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.
