Anti-Caspase 10 Antibody

To examine the expression levels of the apoptotic, necroptotic, and authopagic protein targets implicated in human normal fibroblasts and human multiple myeloma cells, Western blotting was performed. Briefly, cells were seeded in 2% FBS medium overnight. The cells were treated with 1 mM 3-MA for 4 hours, and the cells were collected and lysed with the buffer [1% SDS, 10 mmol/L Tris-Cl (pH 7.6), 20 µg/µL aprotinin, 20 µg/µL leupeptin, and 1 mmol/L 4-(2-aminoethyl)benzenosulfonyl fluoride]. The protein concentrations were determined using the Bicinchoninic Acid Protein Assay kit (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Fifteen micrograms of protein were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. After blocking, the membranes were incubated with the appropriately diluted primary antibody at 4°C overnight. After washing with TBST, the membranes were incubated with appropriately diluted HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies at room temperature for 1 hour. Proteins were detected with the enhanced chemiluminescence kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotechnology, Inc., Piscataway, NJ).
