Optimization of CTLA-4 and pd-1 proteins in EMT6 mouse mammary cancer cells by Western blot
Targeting the activation of immune checkpoints is recognized as an effective strategy for triggering anti-tumour immune responses in cancer cells. Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) were identified as potential crucial targets for cancer t...

Targeting the activation of immune checkpoints is recognized as an effective strategy for triggering anti-tumour immune responses in cancer cells. Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) were identified as potential crucial targets for cancer treatment. Overexpression of CTLA-4 and PD-1 proteins in primary tumour and human cell lines is well documented. In contrary, lack of data was available using animal cell lines. The presence study aims to optimize the expression of CTLA-4 and PD-1 proteins in EMT6 mouse mammary cancer cells using Western blot, and provide basic understanding of their association with breast cancer cell progression. Proteins extracted from EMT6 parental cells were adjusted to 30ng for gel electrophoresis. Afterwards, the protein was transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane for blotting.
