Functional Studies - Dienogest, Steroidal progesterone (ab141282)ab16895 staining MDM2 in MCF7 cells treated with dienogest (ab141282), by ICC/IF. Decrease in MDM2 expression correlates with increased concentration of dienogest, as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 24 hour in media containing different concentrations of ab141282 (dienogest) in DMSO, fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab16895 (5 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 anti-mouse polyclonal antibody (ab96879) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.
