The endpoint xenograft tumors were isolated, fixed in formalin, and paraffin embedded. Tissue sections were processed for immunostaining and incubated overnight with p-AMPKα (T172) (40H9) (#2535, 1:200 dilution), Ki-67 (D2H10) (#9027, 1:200 dilution), or cleaved caspase-3 (Asp175) (5A1E) (#9664, 1:400 dilution) antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology). Next, the sections were counterstained with hematoxylin and subjected to IHC analysis as described previously (8 (link)).
