From: Specific-detection of clinical samples, systematic functional investigations, and transcriptome analysis reveals that splice variant MUC4/Y contributes to the malignant progression of pancreatic cancer by triggering malignancy-related positive feedback loops signaling

MUC4/Y expression and subcellular localization in PANC-1 cells. (A) Real-time PCR using specific primers and TaqMan probe to examine MUC4/Y transcript expression in PANC-1-EV cells and PANC-1-MUC4/Y cells. The level of target gene expression in the PANC-1-MUC4/Y cells was 9912-fold and 9808-fold higher than that of the blank control and negative control, respectively. (B) Western blot confirmation of MUC4/Y protein expression. Total protein from cell extracts was resolved on precast gels. The signal was detected using an electrochemiluminescence reagent kit. (C) Immunofluorescence demonstrating MUC4/Y subcellular localization similar to that of wild-type MUC4. The pancreatic cancer cell lines of HPAC and BXPC-3 is MUC4 positive-expression as positive control for specific antibody.
