Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of acid-sensing ion channel (ASIC)2−/− and ASIC3−/− on ASIC1 expression. A: summary data showing mRNA analysis by real-time quantitative PCR for ASIC1 in primary pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) from control wild-type (WT), ASIC2−/−, and ASIC3−/− mice. ASIC1 expression was normalized to 18S rRNA as an internal control (2–ΔΔCT). B and C: representative Western blots for ASIC1 (indicated by arrow; B) and summary data for protein analysis of ASIC1 (normalized to entire lane on Coomassie-stained blot; C) in primary PASMC from WT, ASIC2−/−, and ASIC3−/− mice. Values are means ± SE. Nos. of animals/group (6, 7) are indicated as color-coded dots: black circle, control male; red circle, control female, analyzed by 1-way ANOVA.
Article Snippet: Blots were blocked for 1 h with 5% milk then incubated for 48 h at 4°C with rabbit anti-ASIC1 (1:500, no. ab5674P; Millipore), rabbit anti-ASIC2 (1:500, no. ab5460; Millipore), or rabbit anti-ASIC3 (1:400, no. ab49333; Abcam).
