Hsa mir 214

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Hsa-miR-214 is a microRNA (miRNA) molecule that is a part of the human genome. miRNAs are small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a role in the regulation of gene expression. The core function of Hsa-miR-214 is to serve as a genetic regulator, influencing the translation and stability of target messenger RNAs (mRNAs).

Total RNA in the cells or bones and total miRNAs in serum or exosomes were isolated using TRIzol (Life technologies) reagent and miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Kit (Qiagen) or mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion) according to the manufacturer's protocol, respectively. After purification, the total RNA was treated with TURBO DNase (Ambion) and reverse transcribed into first-strand cDNA using a high-capacity cDNA reverse transcription kit (Applied Biosystems). We used 100 ng cDNA per PCR. The TaqMan primer-probe combinations for pri-miRNAs, pre-miRNAs and miRNAs were products of Ambion. The primer for mRNAs were purchased from Shanghai Integrated Biotech Solutions Co., Ltd (Supplementary Table 6). For detection of 3′ end uridylated miR-214-3p isoforms, the following miRNA assays were used: hsa-miR-214-3p (Ambion, ID 002306), hsa-miR-214-3p-AAA (custom order: 5′-ACAGCAGGCACAGACAGGCAGUAAA-3′, hsa-miR-214-3p-UUU (custom order: 5′-ACAGCAGGCACAGACAGGCAGUUUU-3′). Real-time PCR reactions were performed using the 96-well ABI Prism 7900 HT Sequence detection system (Applied Biosystems). Please see Supplementary Table 5 for the raw data for all the real-time PCR analysis.

The dual luciferase assay was performed using the dual-luciferase reporter assay system (psiCHECK-2 vector, Promega). A 850-bp fragment of the MTHFR 3' UTR was amplified from genomic DNA using the following primer sequences: forward, 5 ‫׳‬ -GGACTAGTGGTTGTTGCCAACTAAGCCC-3 ‫׳‬ ; reverse, 5 ‫׳‬ -TTCAAGCTTTCCAGGGAGTGATGACAGAG-3 ‫׳‬ . The PCR product was inserted into the psiCHECK-2 vector downstream of the luciferase gene sequence. All of the constructs were verified by DNA sequencing. According to the MTHFR genotypes, constructed vectors were termed psiCHECK-AA and psiCHECK-GG, respectively. HEK-293 cells were plated in 96-well clusters. Lipofectamine 2000 was used to transfect the cells with 80 ng of psiCHECK-AA or psiCHECK-GG reporter constructs,(Invitrogen, USA)hsa-miR-214 or controls (all at 30 nM, Ambion, USA), and 80 ng of a psiCHECK-2 luciferase vector. After 48 hoftransfection, the cells were washed twice and lysed with passive lysis buffer. Firefly luciferase activity was determined using the dual-luciferase reporter assay system and a luminometer (Promega), as we previously described [27] . The relative luciferase activity was calculated by normalizing the firefly luciferase activity against the internal control luciferase activity.

Ten nanograms of total RNA were reverse transcribed using Taqman microRNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to manufacturer’s instructions, as previously described [51 (link)]. The obtained cDNA was amplified using the following Taqman MicroRNA assays: hsa-miR-22, hsa-miR-24, hsa-miR-99a, hsa-miR-194, hsa-miR-214, hsa-miR-335, hsa-miR-339, hsa-miR-708 (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA).
To normalize quantitative Real-Time PCR reactions, parallel reactions were run on each sample for RNU48 snRNA. The reactions were performed in triplicate and changes in the target miRNA content relative to RNU48 were determined using the comparative Ct method to calculate changes in Ct, and, ultimately, fold and percent change. An average Ct value for each RNA was obtained for replicate reactions.

JIMT-1 cell line was procured from DSMZ (Brauenschweig, Germany) and grown in 1 : 1 DMEM/F12 (both from Mediatech, Inc., Manassas, VA, USA) media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Atlanta Biologicals Inc., Lawrenceville, GA, USA), 1% glutaMAX (Gibco, Paisly, UK), 10 μg ml−1 insulin (Sigma Chemicals, Perth, WA, Australia) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Lonza BioWhittaker, Walkersville, MD, USA). The KPL-4 cell line was a kind gift from Professor Junichi Kurebayashi (Kawasaki Medical School, Japan) and was grown in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% glutaMAX and 1% penicillin–streptomycin. Both cell lines were kept at 37 °C in 5% CO2 and routinely tested for mycoplasma infections using the ATCC Mycoplasma detection kit (ATCC, Manassas, VA, USA).

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.
