a Western blotting was used to examine mitochondrial apoptotic pathway-related proteins after treatment with control (i), PANI-PEG-CS (ii), Ir(III) complex (iii), and Ir(III)@PANI-PEG-CS (iv). Key proteins involved in apoptosis such as Bax, Bcl-2, cytochrome c, and cleaved caspase-3 were examined to better understand how each treatment affects cell death at the mitochondrial level. b To further investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms, western blotting was used to investigate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway (i), PANI-PEG-CS (ii), Ir(III) complex (iii), and Ir(III)@PANI-PEG-CS (iv). Expression levels of PI3K, AKT (total and phosphorylated), and mTOR were evaluated to assess whether this survival pathway was activated or suppressed. Protein levels were quantified and compared to the control group to determine statistical significance. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 in comparison to the respective control

Western blot analysis of Phospho-mTOR (S2448) using anti-Phospho-mTOR (S2448) antibody (P00003).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: LPS-stimulated mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: Low-dose drug mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: Medium-dose drug mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: High-dose drug mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 6: Positive control drug mouse 4T1 whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Phospho-mTOR (S2448) antigen affinity purified monoclonal antibody (Catalog # P00003) at 1:500 overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:500 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with ChemiDoc MP system. A specific band was detected for Phospho-mTOR (S2448) at approximately 289 kDa. The expected band size for Phospho-mTOR (S2448) is at 289 kDa.

|---|---|
| Application | Western Blot |
| Sample | mouse 4T1 cells |
| Sample Processing Description | normal 4T1 cells, LPS-stimulated 4T1 cells, cells treated with low, medium, or high doses of the drug, and cells treated with a positive control drug. |
| Other Reagents | RIPA lysis buffer, Protease inhibitor, Electrophoresis buffer, Transfer buffer, Blocking buffer |
| Primary Antibody | Anti-Phospho-mTOR (S2448) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody |
| Primary Incubation | 1:2500, overnight at 4 ℃ |
| Secondary Antibody | HRP Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG |
| Secondary Incubation | 1:10000, 1 hour in room temperature |
| Detection | Substrate: ECL, Imaging system:ChemiDoc MP |
| Results Summary | With equal loading amounts, total MTOR protein levels were similar across all groups. However, phosphorylated MTOR levels showed significant changes: the blank group was the lowest, the model group the highest, and in the drug-treated groups, phosphorylation decreased sequentially from low, medium, to high dose. The positive control group was comparable to the high-dose group. |

Asked: 2019-09-19
Answer
From literature testis does express MTOR. From Uniprot.org, MTOR is expressed in testis, brain, cerebellum, b-cell, cervix carcinoma, cervix carcinoma erythroleukemia, liver, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have MTOR expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
B-cell, Pubmed ID: 7809080
Brain, Pubmed ID: 8008069
Cerebellum, Pubmed ID: 15489334

Question
We are currently using anti-Phospho-mTOR (S2448) Rabbit Monoclonal antibody P00003 for mouse tissue, and we are content with the IHC results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, pig. Is it likely that the antibody can work on canine tissues as well?

Asked: 2019-07-23
Answer
The anti-Phospho-mTOR (S2448) Rabbit Monoclonal antibody (P00003) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with canine tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in canine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
