Protein expression analysis
Western blot analysis of CLDN3 and CLDN4 protein expression in homozygous B-hCLDN3/hCLDN4 mice. Various tissue lysates were collected from wild-type C57BL/6 mice (+/+) and homozygous B-hCLDN3/hCLDN4 mice (H/H, H/H), and then analyzed by western blot with cross-reactive anti-CLDN3 antibody or species-specific anti-CLDN4 antibody. 40 μg total proteins were loaded for western blotting analysis. CLDN3 and CLDN4 were detected in lung and colon.
mRNA expression analysis
Strain specific analysis of CLDN3 and CLDN4 mRNA expression in wild-type C57BL/6 mice and B-hCLDN3/hCLDN4 mice by RT-PCR. Colon RNA were isolated from wild-type C57BL/6 mice (+/+) and homozygous B-hCLDN3/hCLDN4 mice (H/H, H/H), then cDNA libraries were synthesized by reverse transcription, followed by PCR with mouse or human CLDN3 or CLDN4 primers. Mouse Cldn3 and Cldn4 mRNA were detectable only in wild-type C57BL/6 mice. Human CLDN3 and CLDN4 mRNA were detectable only in homozygous B-hCLDN3/hCLDN4 mice but not in wild-type mice.
