“…For RNA qRT-PCR, immunoblotting, and percentage cornified envelope (CE) formation, NHEKs were grown as previously described (8) and treated with SB (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA; 2 mM, unless otherwise indicated), PD153035 (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA; 300 nM), or EGF (Invitrogen, Carlsbad CA; 10 ng/ml), with each endpoint measured as previously described (2, 8). Levels of poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) and cleaved PARP were detected by immunoblot using an anti-PARP antibody (Epitomics, Burlingame, CA).…”
