    Functional Studies - Cryptotanshinone, STAT3 inhibitor (ab120666)

    MCF7 cells were incubated at 37°C for 4h with vehicle control (0 μM) and different concentrations of cryptotanshinone (ab120666). Increased expression of JNK1+JNK2 (phospho T183 + Y185) in MCF7cells correlates with an increase in cryptotanshinone concentration, as described in literature.

    Whole cell lysates were prepared with RIPA buffer (containing protease inhibitors and sodium orthovanadate), 10 μg of each were loaded on the gel and the WB was run under reducing conditions. After transfer the membrane was blocked for an hour using 5% BSA before being incubated with Anti-JNK1 + JNK2 (phospho T183 + Y185) antibody ab4821 at at 1/1000 dilution and Anti-beta Actin antibody ab8227 at 1 μg/ml overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ab97051) at 1/10000 dilution and visualised using ECL development solution.
