Background
MEK1/2 (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase 1 and 2) are crucial components within the MAPK (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase) signaling pathway, belonging to the protein kinase family. They are activated by upstream kinases such as RAF, which then phosphorylate and activate downstream ERK (Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase) protein kinases, thereby promoting cellular processes like growth, differentiation, and proliferation. In many cancers, MEK1/2 activity is significantly elevated, enabling tumor cells to proliferate and grow unchecked. Therefore, inhibiting the MEK1/2 signaling pathway is considered a vital anticancer strategy.

Immunocytochemistry
ICC shows positive staining in HeLa cells. Anti-MEK1/2 antibody was used at 1/500 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. Goat polyclonal Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) was used as secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. The cells were fixed with 100% ice-cold methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Counterstain with tubulin (Red).
