Sigenome non targeting sirna

Manufactured by Horizon Discovery
Sourced in United States, Germany

The SiGENOME Non-Targeting siRNA is a laboratory product designed for use in RNA interference (RNAi) experiments. It is a pool of several small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes that do not target any known genes in a given organism. This product is intended to serve as a control in RNAi studies to help researchers evaluate the specificity of their gene silencing experiments.

Transfected cells were then incubated in the presence of puromycin at 2 μg/mL for 2 weeks to generate stably transfected cells. Single colonies with low TPD54 expression were then selected for further downstream experiments.
TPD54 (NM_199359.2) was overexpressed in MCF-7 cells and patient-derived xenografts using lipofectamine 2000. Cells were treated as indicated after transfection for 1 day.

HCT116 cells (2.5 × 105) were plated in 6‐well plates and transfected with 10 nM siRNA 6–8 h later using HiPerfect (Qiagen, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. AllStars Negative Control siRNA (Qiagen, Germany) and siGENOME Non‐Targeting siRNA (Dharmacon, USA) were used as negative controls. ABCC1 (MRP1), TP53, and SLC7A11 (xCT) were silenced using four, two, and three different siRNA sequences, respectively (additional details are included in Appendix Table S6). To evaluate the siRNA knockdown efficiency, MRP1, xCT, and p53 protein levels were assessed by Western blotting 24 h after transfection.

Day 5 primary murine TFH-like cells were nucleofected with siGENOMESMARTpool siRNA (Dharmacon, D-051247, D-064214) targeting Ikzf1, Ikzf3, or both, using the Lonza 4D nucleofector system and buffer P3 per the manufacturer's instructions. siGENOME non-targeting siRNA was used as a control (Dharmacon, D-001210-01). Following nucleofection, cells recovered in TH1-polarizing conditions containing low IL-2 (TFH-like polarizing conditions) for 48h. RNA was isolated and changes in gene expression were analyzed via qRT-PCR, including Ikzf1 and Ikzf3 to establish knockdown efficiency.

MCF-7, MDA MB-231 and MCF 10A cells (2×106) were seeded in 6-well plates and treated with either vehicle (Control) or 25 μM XeC (inhibitor of IP3R mediated calcium release) (Cayman) in calcium free medium (EGTA pretreatment,1mM,was given to chelate extracellular calcium) for 48 hours. MCF-7, MDA MB-231 and MCF 10A cells were transfected using Lipofectamine 2000 transfect reagent (Invitrogen, USA) as per the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, 2×106cells were transfected with 4μg siRNA directed against the human IP3R2 or IP3R3 mRNA sequence (ON-TARGET plus, Dharmacon, USA) or control siRNA (siGENOME non-targeting siRNA; Dharmacon, USA) for 72 hours and further analyses were performed.

siRNA against Y-RNA-1 was designed using siDESIGN center (Dharmacon, Lafayette, CO). siRNAs against Y-RNA-1 (Y-RNA-1 siRNA; UUAUCUCAAUUGAUUGUUCACUU) or non-targeting (NT) control siRNA (siGENOME non-targeting siRNA) were purchased from Dharmacon. Transfection of human MSC was performed using Amaxa™ cell line nucleofector™ Kit V (Lonza). Cells were suspended in Nucleofector™ to a final concentration of 5 × 105 cells/100 μl, and then transfected with either 50 nM and 100 nM of Y RNA1-siRNA or 2 μg GFP plasmid using the Nucleofector™ II Device (Lonza). After electroporation, cells were recovered by adding 500 μl media without antibiotics into the cuvette and then plated onto a six-well cell culture plate.

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.
