Polyclonal anti-mouse SPRR2A was produced in rabbits by Pacific Immunology (Ramona, CA). The synthesized peptide (CLPSVWPGP) was conjugated to a carrier protein and the conjugate was used to generate the antibody. Other antibodies were purchased from various vendors: anti-human SPRR2A antibody (Abcam, ab125385), anti-MUC2 antibody (Thermo Fisher, MA5-12345), anti-Lysozyme antibody (Santa Cruz, sc-27958), anti-DCLK1 antibody (Abcam, ab202754), anti-GAPDH antibody (Thermo Fisher, PA1-988), anti-β-actin antibody (Cell Signaling, 8457S), anti-β-tubulin (Cell Signaling, 2128S). Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated UEA-1 lectin was purchased from GeneTex (GTX01512).

Whole-cell lysates were collected using RIPA buffer. Proteins were separated using 10% SDS polyacrylamide gel, and the gels were transported to PVDF membranes (Thermo Fisher Scientific, CA, USA). The PVDF membranes were incubated with 5% skim milk in TBST at room temperature for 1 h. Later on, the PVDF membranes were probed with primary antibodies: anti-DCLK1 antibody (1:1000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-Notch1 antibody (1:3000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-E-cadherin (1:3000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-Vimentin (1:3000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-slug (1:1000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-TGF-β (1:1000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-MMP2 (1:1000, Abcam, CA, USA), anti-MMP9 (1:1000, Abcam, CA, USA) and anti-GAPDH antibody (1:3000, Bioworld, CA, USA) overnight at 4 °C. After that, the PVDF membrane was incubated for 1 h in secondary antibody anti-rabbit IgG second antibody (Abcam; ab150077) (1:5000) at room temperature for 1 h. Finally, the immunoreactivity was detected using ECL reagent (Santa Cruz Biotechnology).

Goblet cells were quantitated in PAS stained 2.5 μm thick sections of glycolmethacrylate-embedded lungs and eosinophil recruitment was visualized with Congo red reactivity.
For evaluation of tracheal tuft cells, tracheas were incubated with an anti-DCLK1 antibody (Abcam) for 7 days post fixation and the immunoreactivity was identified with Alexa 546 conjugated anti-rabbit antibody (Invitrogen) with Hoechst 33342 as a nuclear dye. Quantitation of tuft cells in whole mounts was as previously described (13 ).

Caecal Crypt and Goblet Cell Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Caecal tips were collected and fixed in Carnoy’s solution. Sections were paraffin embedded and 5μm sections were mounted onto slides for staining. To analyse caecal crypts and goblet cell counts sections were stained with periodic acid Schiff’s reagent (PAS) and counterstained with Meyers haematoxylin(Sigma). To analyse mucin sulphation, sections were stained with High- Iron Diamine-Alcian Blue (HID-AB). Images were visualised using an Axioskop upright microscope using the Axiovision software.
To stain for Brdu, Muc2 and tuft cells, sections were stained with primary anti-BRDU (BU1/75, BioRad), anti-Muc2 antibody, 1:200 dilution (5501, gift from D. Thornton) or anti-Dclk1 antibody, 1:800 dilution (Abcam) at 1:800 dilution). Sections were washed in PBS and incubated in secondary antibody goat anti-rabbit Af488 (Life techologies) for 1 hour at room temperature. Nuclear structures were stained with DAPI. An Olympus BX51 upright microscope was used to visualise staining using MetaVue software.

Investigating DCLK1 and FOXD3 Regulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antibodies used in these studies included: anti-β-actin (total; Sigma); anti-DCLK1 antibody (Abcam); anti-FOXD3 antibody (Abcam). Anti-DCLK1-S antibody was generated in our laboratory as described previously (9 ). The anti-DCLK1-S-Ab was specific for the S-isoform and did not cross-react with the L-isoform (9 ). Sepharose beads and all other chemical reagents were purchased from Sigma. cDNA Synthesis Master Mix was purchased from GeneDEPOT. SYBR green qRT-PCR kit was purchased from Bio-Rad. Promega GoTaq green Master Mix was used for PCR amplification, using a thermal cycler from Eppendorf. FOXD3 expression plasmid and vector controls were purchased from GeneCopoeia. Smart Pool of target-specific siRNA and nontargeting (control) siRNA were purchased from Dharmacon. Transfection reagent FuGENE6 was bought from Roche, and all primers used were synthesized by Sigma.

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.
