Western blot detection of CTR in human chondrocytes. (A) Screening of a panel of anti-CTR antibodies against human osteoclast lysates. A 53 kDa band (arrow), consistent with the receptor's molecular weight, was chosen to evaluate antibody performance. Ab1: H00000799-M01 diluted 1:200; Ab2: SP1338P dil. 1:200; Ab3: 250618 dil. 1:200; Ab4: Ab11042-50 dil. 1:2000. (B) Simultaneous detection of the 53 kDa CTR band in human osteoclasts and chondrocytes OCL: 10 μg and 20 μg protein of in vitro differentiated human osteoclasts lysates [34]; CHO1: 30 μg and 15 μg protein of chondrocytes lysates from the same individual; CHO2: 30 μg and 15 μg protein of chondrocytes lysates from a second individual. Antibody: Ab3, dil. 1:200. (C) Detection of CTR in 20 μg protein cell lysates samples of freshly isolated chondrocyte from two different individuals. Antibody: Ab4, dil. 1:2000.
