“…15 For Western blot, membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with the following antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA) diluted in 3% milk: mouse monoclonal antibody directed against caspase-8 (9746, 1:1000), rabbit monoclonal antibody directed against caspase-3 (9665, 1:1000), rabbit polyclonal antibody directed against Bid (2002, 1:1000), caspase-7 (9492, 1:1000), and caspase-9 (9502, 1:1000). The following antibodies diluted in 5% milk were used for stripped membranes: mouse monoclonal antibody directed against cytokeratin 18 (1:1500; Sigma, St. Louis, MO) and GAPDH (1:5000; Chemicon, Temecula, CA).…”
