    Exprimental Methods

    WB
    Experimental Protocol:
     
    Sample preparation
    1. Tissue: Lyse the tissue sample by adding an appropriate volume of ice-cold RIPA/Tris-Triton Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail),and homogenize the tissue at a low temperature.
    2. Adherent cell: Aspirate the culture medium and wash the cells with ice-cold PBS twice. Lyse the cells by adding an appropriate volume of RIPA/Tris-Triton Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail) and put the sample on ice for 5 min.
    3. Suspension cell: Transfer the culture medium to a pre-cooled centrifuge tube. Centrifuge and aspirate the supernatant. Wash the cells with ice-cold PBS twice. Lyse the cells by adding an appropriate volume of RIPA/Tris-Triton Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail) and put the sample on ice for 5 min.
    4. Place the lysate into a pre-cooled microcentrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 4°C for 15 min. Collect the supernatant;
    5. Remove a small volume of lysate to determine the protein concentration;
    6. Combine the lysate with protein loading buffer. Boil 20 µL sample under 95-100°C for 5 min. Centrifuge for 5 min after cool down on ice.
     
    Electrophoretic separation
    1. According to the concentration of extracted protein, load appropriate amount of protein sample and marker onto SDS-PAGE gels for electrophoresis. Recommended separating gel (lower gel) concentration: 10%. Reference Table for Selecting SDS-PAGE Separation Gel Concentrations
    2. Power up 80V for 30 minutes. Then the power supply is adjusted (110 V~150 V), the Marker is observed, and the electrophoresis can be stopped when the indicator band of the predyed protein Marker where the protein is located is properly separated. (Note that the current should not be too large when electrophoresis, too large current (more than 150 mA) will cause the temperature to rise, affecting the result of running glue. If high currents cannot be avoided, an ice bath can be used to cool the bath.)
     
    Transfer membrane
    1. Take out the converter, soak the clip and consumables in the pre-cooled converter;
    2. Activate PVDF membrane with methanol for 1 min and rinse with transfer buffer;
    3. Install it in the order of "black edge of clip - sponge - filter paper - filter paper - glue -PVDF membrane - filter paper - filter paper - sponge - white edge of clip";
    4. The protein was electrotransferred to PVDF membrane. ( 0.45 µm PVDF membrane is recommended ) Reference Table for Selecting PVDF Membrane Pore Size Specifications
    Recommended conditions for wet transfer: 200 mA, 60 min.
    ( Note that the transfer conditions can be adjusted according to the protein size. For high-molecular-weight proteins, a higher current and longer transfer time are recommended. However, ensure that the transfer tank remains at a low temperature to prevent gel melting.)
     
    Block
    1. After electrotransfer, wash the film with TBST at room temperature for 5 minutes;
    2. Incubate the film in the blocking solution for 1 hour at room temperature;
    3. Wash the film with TBST for 3 times, 5 minutes each time.
     
    Antibody incubation
    1. Use 5% skim milk powder to prepare the primary antibody working liquid (recommended dilution ratio for primary antibody 1:10000), gently shake and incubate with the film at 4°C overnight;
    2. Wash the film with TBST 3 times, 5 minutes each time;
    3. Add the secondary antibody to the blocking solution and incubate with the film gently at room temperature for 1 hour;
    4. After incubation, wash the film with TBST 3 times for 5 minutes each time.
     
    Antibody staining
    1. Add the prepared ECL luminescent substrate (or select other color developing substrate according to the second antibody) and mix evenly;
    2. Incubate with the film for 1 minute, remove excess substrate (keep the film moist), wrap with plastic film, and expose in the imaging system.
    IF
    Experimental Protocol:
     
    Specimen Preparation 
    1. Aspirate liquid, then cover cells to a depth of 2–3 mm with 4% Paraformaldehyde diluted in 1X PBS.
    NOTE: Paraformaldehyde is toxic, use only in a fume hood.
    2. Fix cells for 15 min at room temperature.
    3. Aspirate fixative, rinse three times in 1X PBS for 5 min each.
    4. Proceed with Immunostaining.
     
    Immunostaining
    1. Add theblocking buffer and incubate for 60 min at RT.
    2. Prepare primary antibody diluent in antibody dilution buffer as recommended .
    3. Aspirate blocking solution, apply diluted primary antibody.
    4. Incubate overnight at 4°C.
    5. Rinse three times in 1X PBS for 5 min each.
    6. Incubate specimens in fluorochrome-conjugated secondary antibody diluted in antibody dilution buffer for 1–2 hr at room temperature in the dark.
    7. Rinse three times in 1X PBS for 5 min each.
    8. Mount slides usingmounting medium with DAPI and cover with coverslips.
    9. For best results, allow mountant to cure overnight at room temperature. For long-term storage, store slides flat at 35°C protected from light.

    Experimental Protocol:
     
    Deparaffinization/Rehydration
    1. Deparaffinize/hydrate sections:

    Background

    TPD52 (Tumor Protein D52) is a proto-oncogene frequently overexpressed in multiple malignancies, including prostate, breast, ovarian, and colorectal cancers, primarily due to gene amplification at the chromosomal locus 8q21. Structurally, TPD52 is a 184-amino acid, hydrophilic protein featuring conserved N- and C-terminal PEST domains—typically linked to protein turnover—alongside a coiled-coil motif critical for protein-protein interactions and a D2 motif essential for functional binding. It forms calcium-binding homodimers and is ubiquitously expressed, with particularly high levels in secretory epithelial cells and cancerous tissues. Functionally, TPD52 acts as an oncogenic driver by promoting cell proliferation, survival, migration, and metabolic reprogramming. It exerts tumor-promoting effects through mechanisms such as NF-κB transactivation and negative regulation of the AMPK pathway, the latter via direct interaction with the tumor suppressor LKB1, thereby disrupting energy stress responses. Moreover, its dysregulation correlates with enhanced tumor growth, metastasis, and resistance to apoptosis, marking it as a compelling prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target across diverse oncogenic contexts.
