“…Proteins were separated on 12% sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel, and transferred onto nitrocellulose Protran membrane (Schleicher and Schuell, Milan, Italy), and incubated with the following primary antibodies and antisera: mouse monoclonal antibody specific for RPS19 (Orru et al, 2007), mouse monoclonal anti-GAPDH (Chemicon, Milan, Italy), rabbit polyclonal anti-RPS6 (Cell Signaling, Boston, MA, USA), rabbit polyclonal anti-b-actin (Sigma, Milan, Italy), mouse monoclonal anti-PIM1 (Santa Cruz, Heidelberg, Germany), mouse monoclonal anti-p53 (Santa Cruz), rabbit polyclonal anti-L7a (kindly provided by Giulia Russo, Naples, Italy), rabbit polyclonal anti-AKT (Santa Cruz), mouse monoclonal anti-p27 Kip1 (BD, Milan, Italy), rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-p27 Kip1 (threonine157; R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN, USA), kindly provided by Giuseppe Viglietto, Catanzaro, Italy), rabbit polyclonal anti-eIF4E (Cell Signaling) and rabbit polyclonal anti-b-tubulin (Santa Cruz). Primary antibodies were revealed using horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit or anti-mouse Ab (Jackson Immunoresearch, Suffolk, UK) and the ECL chemiluminescence detection system (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA).…”
