Quantitative Protein Analysis of Glioma Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
U87 and U251 cells were purchased from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Committee Type Culture Collection Cell Bank (Shanghai, China). Cells were cultured in RPIM 1640 (Life Technologies) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Millipore). Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were purchased from RIBOBIO (Guangzhou, China). Lipofectamine™ 2000 (Lip2000) was obtained from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA) and transfections were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The siRNA sequence was as follows: 5ʹ-CCAGAGGUCA GCUGUUCAAGA-3ʹ; Scramble siRNA sequence: 5ʹ-UUCGUAUCUGGGUGUAC CCTT-3ʹ. RIPA lysate was used to extract total protein from the cell lines and the protein concentration in the cell lysate was determined using the BCA protein quantification kit (Beyotime, China). SDS–PAGE was performed in 10% gel with the loading of an equal amount of protein per lane. Samples were electrophoretically transferred onto the PVDF membrane. The membranes were washed five times for 10 min with TBST and blocked using 5% non-fat dry skim milk in TBST before reblotting. The membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies, followed by incubation with relevant biotinylated secondary antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature. The membrane was scanned using an infrared Odyssey scanner by Li-cor.

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.
