western blot analysis

[Molecular Therapy-Nucleic Acids] The effects of conditioned medium collected from dedifferentiated adipocytes on pancreatic cancer cell proliferation, motility, metastasis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were evaluated by western blot analysis, colony forming, real-time cell analysis, 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine, immunofluorescence, Transwell and wound healing assays in vitro.

[Scientific Reports] Researchers silenced Ndufs4 in Neuro-2a cells and we observed shorter neurite lengths with decreased expression of synaptophysin.

[Cell and Bioscience] Scientists investigated the effect of direct contact of prostate cancer (PCa) cells with mesenchymal stem cells on the stemness of PCa and its mechanisms.

[Aging Cell] Alizarin red staining and quantification of calcium content showed that spermidine treatment markedly reduced mineral deposition in both rat and human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) under osteogenic conditions.

[Laboratory Investigation] The authors explored the specific role of solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 4A1-AS1 (SLCO4A1-AS1) in colon CSCs.

[Amino Acids] Scientists studied the in vitro inhibitory properties of the tryptophan-derived endogenous metabolite kynurenic acid and of the lactam form of 3–2′-pyrrilonidinyl-kynurenic acid, alkaloids usually present in combination in chestnut honey in two castration-resistant prostate cancer cell lines.
