Western blot - Human STAT6 knockout A549 cell line (AB286716)

Western blot : Recombinant Anti-STAT6 antibody [EPR1912] ab134940 staining at 1/5000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-CANX (ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20,000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 100 kDa in Wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in STAT6 knockout A549 cell line. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3pc Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit 800CW & Goat anti-Mouse 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

Handling procedures

Initial handling guidelines

Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.

1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water bath for approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method seed all remaining cells into a T25.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Check the culture one day after revival and continue to check until 80% confluent. Media change can be given if needed.
5. Once confluent passage into an appropriate flask at a density of 2x104 cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules. Cultures should be monitored daily.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended.
  • Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
  • Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x104 cells/cm2.
Culture medium

F-12K + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Supplementary information

STAT6 also known as Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 6 is a transcription factor with a mass of around 94 kDa. This protein is an important component in the signaling pathways that respond to cytokines especially those of the IL-4 and IL-13 receptors. STAT6 mainly expresses in immune cells including T cells B cells and macrophages. It exists in the cytoplasm until the cytokine stimulation prompts its phosphorylation and translocation to the nucleus where it influences gene expression.
Biological function summary

STAT6 plays a central role in the development and function of Th2 cells a subset of T helper cells. The protein controls genes linked to the immune response and inflammation such as IL-4 and IL-13 by binding to specific DNA sequences as part of the transcriptional complex. These processes are critical for antibody class switching in B cells and also for regulating the differentiation of T cells which are processes important in defending against parasitic infections and are linked to allergies.

Pathways

STAT6 functions mainly in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway a pathway important for transmitting information from chemical signals outside cells to the cell nucleus resulting in DNA transcription. Within this pathway STAT6 works closely with JAK1 and JAK3 kinases which phosphorylate STAT6 enabling its activation. The protein also connects with other members of the STAT family like STAT1 and STAT3 during overlapping signaling processes.

STAT6 has associations with asthma and certain types of cancer such as colorectal cancer. In asthma STAT6 influences the production of IgE and eosinophilic inflammation often connected to allergic responses. Meanwhile STAT6 promotes tumorigenesis in some cancers by regulating genes responsible for cell survival and proliferation. It connects with proteins like IL-4 and IL-13 in these disorders which suggests potential therapeutic targets for treatment.
