Evaluating miR-124-3p Effects on Spermine Oxidase

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AGS cells were transfected with the hsa-miR-124-3p or negative control miRNA mimic for 24 or 48 h, collected, and quick-frozen for analysis. Spermine oxidase activity was measured using a luminol-based assay measuring the production of hydrogen peroxide, as previously described.44 (link) Polyamine concentrations were determined as previously described.45 (link) Both assays were normalized relative to milligrams of total cellular protein determined using the method of Bradford.46 (link)For Western blots, total protein (50 μg per lane) was separated on pre-cast 4–12% Bis-Tris NuPAGE gels with 1 × MOPS running buffer (Invitrogen) and transferred onto Immun-Blot PVDF membranes (BioRad). Blots were blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE, USA), followed by overnight incubation at 4°C with antibodies specific to SMOX (1:1000 dilution), as previously described,2 (link) and β-actin (#sc-8432, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX, USA). Incubation with species-specific, fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies allowed the visualization and quantification of immunoreactive proteins using the Odyssey infrared detection system and software (LI-COR).

Total protein was extracted from treated cells and quantified using the Bio-Rad DC assay with absorbance measured at 750 nm; values were converted to protein concentration using interpolation on a bovine serum albumin standard curve. Protein samples (30 μg per lane) were separated on pre-cast 4–12% Bis-Tris BOLT gels with 1 × MOPS running buffer (Invitrogen) and transferred onto Immun-Blot PVDF membrane (Bio-Rad). Blots were blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE), and proteins of interest were visualized using antibodies specific to SSAT [46 (link)], SMOX [45 (link)], and ß-actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Dallas, TX). Primary antibodies were diluted 1:1000 in Odyssey blocking buffer containing 0.1% Tween-20, applied to blocked membranes, and incubated at 4°C overnight with rocking. Following washes, blots were incubated for 1 hour at room temperature with species-specific, fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies to allow visualization and quantification of immunoreactive proteins using the Odyssey infrared detection system and software (LI-COR).

Protein Quantification and Western Blot Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Following treatment, cells were lysed in 4% SDS containing protease inhibitors and passed through a homogenizer column (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA). Protein was quantified using the BioRad DC assay with interpolation on a bovine serum albumin standard curve. Reduced samples (30 μg/lane) were separated on 4–12% Bis-Tris BOLT gels (Invitrogen), followed by transfer onto Immun-Blot PVDF (BioRad) and blocking in Odyssey blocking buffer (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE) at room temperature for 1 hour. Membranes were incubated with primary antibodies targeting SMOX, SSAT, ODC, γH2AX (Abcam, Cambridge, MA), and ß-actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) overnight at 4°C. Species-specific, fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies were used for visualization and quantitation of bands using an Odyssey infrared detection system and software (LI-COR).

Cells were washed twice in PBS, total protein was harvested directly in 1X Laemli buffer (BioRad), and samples were boiled for 5 min. Western blotting was performed as described previously [21 (link)]. Membranes were incubated with antibodies that recognized ODC (1:12,000 [24 (link)]), Raptor, p-S6KT389 (both 1:500-Cell Signaling Technology), HuR, and GAPDH (both 1:1000-Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Dye-conjugated secondary antibodies were used for Western blot quantification using the Odyssey infrared detection system and software (LI-COR Biosciences).

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.
