Aortic smooth muscle cell migration into tunica intima is a major cause of restenosis. We have tested various signaling molecules levels in vascular smooth muscle cells to understand the mechanism of their migration. Here, we tested the time-course effect of a chemokine on phosphorylation of cofilin in human aortic smooth muscle cells.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Aortic Smooth Muscle Cell lysates

Primary Incubation

5% skim milk, 1 hr at room temperature

Blocking Agent

5% BSA

Secondary Incubation

1:1000 dilution/ over night / 4 deg C in TBST + 5% BSA

Tertiary Incubation

Goat anti-rabbit, 1:4000, room temperature for 1 hr in TBST + 5% skim milk

Detection

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)

Results Summary

Time-course treatment of chemokine has no significant effect on cofilin phosphorylation.
