Total protein was extracted using a lysis buffer (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) and quantified with the Bradford method [40 (
link)]. Fifty μg of the total protein samples were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (
PVDF; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Immunoprecipitation assays were performed as described previously [41 (
link)]. Membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with the following primary antibodies:
Lasp1 (1:100, Abcam, Cambridge, UK);
GAPDH (1:5000, Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA);
Myc-tag,
CyclinD1, CyclinB1, CyclinA2, CyclinE1, Snail, p-ERK, ERK, p-AKT-Ser473, AKT, p-p38, p38, p-FAK-Tyr397, p-FAK-Tyr925, p-FAK-Tyr576/577, FAK,
p-Met-Tyr1234/1235,
p-Met-Tyr1349, p-Met-Tyr1003, Met, p-Gab1-Tyr307, Gab1 (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA);
E-cadherin(1:1000; BD Transduction Laboratories, Lexington, KY, USA); Zo-1 and
Occludin(1:500; Proteintech, Chicago, IL, USA).
PF-562271 was purchased from Selleck Chemicals (Houston, TX, USA),
LY294002 was purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. Membranes were washed and subsequently incubated with
peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) at 37 °C for 2 hours. Bound proteins were visualized using electrochemiluminescence (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) and detected with a bio-imaging system (DNR Bio-Imaging Systems, Jerusalem, Israel).
