Cells were lysed in RIPA Lysis Buffer (Beyotime, China, Cat. No.
P0013C). After high-speed centrifugation, the proteins were collected and
quantified with the Enhanced BCA Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime, China, Cat. No.
P0009). Subsequently, 40–60 μg of protein was loaded onto 10% SDS-PAGE gels and
transferred to PVDF membranes. The membranes were washed with TBST and then
blocked with 5% non-fat milk for 45 min at room temperature [
36]. The membranes were then incubated at
4 °C overnight with the primary antibodies [CXCR4 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab1670),
CXCR7 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab38089), cyclin D1 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab134175), PCNA
(1:1000, Abcam, #ab18197), CDK4 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab137675), cadherin (1:1000,
Abcam, #ab133168), vimentin (1:1000, Abcam, #ab8978), TAZ (1:1000, Abcam,
#ab224239), complex III subunit core (CIII-core2, 1:1000, Invitrogen, #459220),
complex II (CII-30, 1:1000, Abcam, #ab110410), complex IV subunit II (CIV-II,
1:1000, Abcam, #ab110268), Drp1 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab56788), Fis1 (1:1000, Abcam,
#ab71498), Opa1 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab42364), Mfn1 (1:1000, Abcam, #ab57602), Mff

Technology, #3498), Bax (1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology, #2772), caspase-9
(1:1000, Cell Signaling Technology, #9504), Bad (1:1000; Abcam; #ab90435), Tom20
(1:1000, Abcam, #ab186735), cyt-c (1:1000; Abcam; #ab90529), GAPDH (1:1000, Cell
Signaling Technology, #5174), JNK (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, #4672),
and p-JNK (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, #9251)]. After being washed with
TBST, the membranes were incubated with the secondary antibodies for 45 min at
room temperature. The bands were observed with an enhanced chemiluminescence
(ECL) substrate kit (Beyotime, China, Cat. No. P0018F). The mean densities of
the bands were represented as the optical density in
units/mm
2 and normalized to that of loading
