DSS (Molecular weight 36,000-50,000 kDa) was obtained from MP Biomedicals (catalog no. 02160110). Hemoccult Test Kit was obtained from Beckman Coulter. Complete EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail was from Roche.
Primary antibodies used for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blotting (WB) were: mouse anti-actin (Millipore MAB1501R, diluted 1:1000 for WB), mouse anti-β-catenin (BD Transduction Laboratories #610154, diluted 1:1000 for IHC and 1:2000 for WB), rabbit anti-Ki67 (Abcam Ab15580, diluted 1:500 for IHC), rabbit anti-EGFR phosphorylated at Tyr1068 (Abcam Ab40815, diluted 1:200 for IHC). Rabbit anti-PACS-2 18193 was previously described [21 (link)], and was diluted 1:1000 for WB.
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits used for analysis of ex vivo colonic tissue culture supernatants were mouse amphiregulin DuoSet ELISA (R&D Systems DY989) and mouse TNF-α ELISA Ready-SET Go! (eBioscience 88-7324).
The primers used for Pacs2 genotyping were 5′-ATG CAT ACC TGC CCT TAG CAG AGG-3′, 5′-TGG AGT CTG AGG TTG AGG CCT TGA G-3′, and 5′-ATG GCG TTA CTT AAG CTA GCT TGC-3′. Primers for ApcMin/+ genotyping were 5′-GCC ATC CCT TCA CGTTAG-3′, 5′-TTC CAC TTT GGC ATA AGG C-3′ and 5′-TTC TGA GAA AGA CAG AAG TTA-3′. All primers were obtained from TAG Copenhagen.
