Total RNA was harvested using an RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). Reverse transcription was done with a SuperScript First Strand Synthesis System (Invitrogen). RT-PCR was performed with QuantiTech SYBR Green PCR kit (Qiagen) in Rotor-Gene Real-Time DNA amplification system (Corbett Research, New South Wales, Australia) using the COX-2 primers: forward: 5′-AGAAGGAAATGGCTGCAGAA-3′, reverse: 3′-GCTCGGCTTCCAGTATTGAG-5′; Atf4 primers: forward: 5′-TCGATGCTCTGTTTCGAATG-3′, reverse: 3′-GGCAACCTGGTCGACTTTTA-5′. The expression levels of the genes of interest (GOI) were analyzed with the software from Qiagen. For each GOI, a standard curve was established and a value of each treatment group was obtained. Similarly, a standard curve was established for β-actin and its value in each group was calculated. RT-PCR was done in quadruplicate and each GOI value was normalized by β-actin values. The mean and SD were generated with software from these normalized values.

Mature miRNAs were expressed using Rotor-Gene® Q instrument with software 2.1.0.9 and quantitative RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) with QuantiTech SYBR Green PCR Kit (Qiagen). RT-PCR was performed in duplicate after optimization, including minus reverse transcription controls to assess any DNA and nontemplate controls for ensuring the lack of background signal. The RT-PCR reaction was set up with mild modifications of manufacturer’s instructions as follows: 5 µL of 2 × QuantiTect SYBR Green PCR Master Mix, 1 µL of 10 × miScript Universal Primer, 1 µL of 10 × primer assay, and 1 µL of RNase-free water. Thirteen miRNAs covering a variety of miRNA sequence features (Table 1), including Ce miR-39, were selected, and SNORD61, SNORD68, and SNORD95 were used as housekeeping genes. Shortly after the hot start Taq polymerase activation at 95°C for 10 minutes, reaction was carried out with 40 cycles of 95°C for 15 seconds, 55°C for 30 seconds, and 72°C for 15 seconds, followed by melting reaction ramps from 55°C–95°C at the acquisition of Melt A on Green. For TP53 mRNA expression, forward and reverse primers 5’-CGACAGAGCGAGATTCCATCTCAA-3’ and 5’-GCCCCAATTGCAGGTAAAACAGTC-3’ were used, respectively.

RNA extraction was performed by using a Maxwell 16 LEV simplyRNA Tissue Kit (Promega, Madison, WI) followed by RNA quantification with a NanoDrop 2000 (Thermo Scientific, Wilmington, DE). 50 ng of sample RNA was immediately reverse transcribed into cDNA with an Omniscript RT kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Qiagen, Venlo, Netherlands) and frozen at -20° C until analyzed by qPCR. cDNA samples were mixed with QuantiTech SYBR Green PCR kit (Qiagen, Venlo, Netherlands) and appropriate primers (QuantiTech Primer Assay, Qiagen, Venlo, Netherlands) for mouse noggin (QT00256585), beta-Actin (QT00095242), or GAPDH (QT01658692). Quantative PCR was performed on a Bio-Rad iCycler (Bio Rad, Hercules, CA) for 40 cycles. Data were analyzed with Biogazelle QBase+ software (Zwijnaarde, Belgium). For the dose response of noggin expression to increasing rhBMP-2 dose (section 2.8) noggin expression was normalized to MC3T3-E1 cells that had not received rhBMP-2 (0 μg/mL). For experiments to determine levels of knockdown after treatment with siRNA in cells that had been exposed to 10 μg/mL of rhBMP-2, noggin expression was normalized to MC3T3-E1 cells that were exposed to 10 μg/mL of rhBMP-2 but were not treated with siRNA.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
