Protein Expression Analysis in Cell Types

Whole cell protein and nuclear protein preparation, as well as western blotting, were performed as we described previously [24 (link), 25 (link)]. For whole protein, the membrane was probed with primary antibodies of anti-E-cadherin (rabbit polyclonal, R&D System, 1:1000), anti-α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) (rabbit polyclonal, R&D System, 1:1000), anti-fibroblast specific protein (FSP)-1 (rabbit polyclonal, Abcam, 1:1000), anti-collagen I (rabbit polyclonal, Calbiochem, 1:1000) and anti-MCP-1 (rabbit polyclonal, Abcam, 1:500); for nuclear protein, the membrane was probed with anti-NF-κB-p65 subunit antibody (rabbit polyclonal, Abcam, 1:1000). The intensities of the blots were determined using an imaging analysis program (Image J, free download from http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/). The β-actin was used as internal control. The normalized values in different groups were averaged and expressed as fold change with the mean value of control group as 1.

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.
