Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To evaluate the osteogenic properties of nanostructured scaffolds incorporated with HA, ATP, and both combined, BMSCs were seeded on nanostructured scaffolds in a 6-well plate. At each timepoint (1, 3, and 7 days), total RNA was extracted using a NucleoZol kit (Macherey-Nagel, Germany) according to the instructions. After that, reverse transcription was carried out to synthesize cDNA using the HiScript II Q RT SuperMix reagent Kit (Vazyme, China). Then, gene amplification was performed using the SYBR Premix Ex Taq-TM Real-time PCR kit (Vazyme, China), and the osteogenesis-related primers (alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), osteopontin (OPN), Osterix (OSX), and Runt-related factor 2 (Runx2) used in this study are listed in Table 1.

Osteogenic Gene Expression Analysis in BMSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After co-culture with the composite hydrogels for 3 to 14 days, the total RNA of BMSCs was extracted using NucleoZOL (MACHEREY-NAGEL, Germany). Then the first-strand complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized from total RNA using a Hiscript II Q RT SuperMix reagent Kit (Vazyme, China) to obtain the reverse transcription mRNA. Finally, real-time PCR of total 10 μL samples in a 96-well PCR plate (Nest Biotechnology, Wuxi, China) was tested using an SYBR Green Master Mix kit (Vazyme, China). To normalize the results, the 2−ΔΔCt method (Livak’s method) was introduced to quantify the gene expression levels. All samples were analyzed in triplicate. Reverse transcription (RT)-PCR primers of osteogenic genes are shown in Table 1.

According to the manufacturer's instructions, total RNAs were extracted from A549 cell line or lung tissues with TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen). The cDNA was reverse‐transcribed by using the HiScriptII Q RT SuperMix Reagent Kit (Vazyme, Nanjing, China) for different experiments. Quantitative real‐time PCR was performed with the SYBR Premix EX Taq Kit (Takara, Dalian, China) using an ABI PRISM 7500 Real‐time PCR system (Life Technologies, Waltham, MA), and β‐actin was used as the internal control. The sequences of PCR primers used in this study were shown as follows: IL‐6 forward, 5′‐ACTCACCTCTTCAGAACGAATTG‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐CCATCTTTGGAAGGTTCAGGTTG‐3′; IL‐1β forward, 5′‐ATGATGGCTTATTACAGTGGCAA‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐GTCGGAGATTCGTAGCTGGA‐3′; IL‐12 forward, 5′‐ACCCTGACCATCCAAGTCAAA‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐TTGGCCTCGCATCTTAGAAAG‐3′; TNF‐α forward, 5′‐CCTCTCTCTAATCAGCCCTCTG‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐GAGGACCTGGGAGTAGATGAG‐3′; TGF‐β forward, 5′‐GGCCAGATCCTGTCCAAGC‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐GTGGGTTTCCACCATTAGCAC‐3′; GAPDH forward, 5′‐CTTCAACGACCACTTTGT‐3′ and reverse, 5′‐TGGTCCAGGGGTCTTACT‐3′.

Mice were decapitated after anesthesia, and the brain tissue was separated. In detail, total RNA was isolated from tissues with RNAiso plus and reverse transcribed into cDNA using the HiScriptIIQRT SuperMix reagent kit (R223-01, Vazyme). Finally, the cDNA was quantified by qPCR using a SYBR qPCR Master Mix (Q311-02, Vazyme). The mRNA expression levels were calculated by the 2-ΔΔCt method after the normalization to the expression of M1 markers (iNOS/IL-1β), M2 markers (CD206/Arg1), or GAPDH. All experiments were performed in triplicate and repeated at least three times. Four mice in each group were used for statistical analysis.

To produce M1 macrophages, RAW 264.7 cells were seeded onto six-well plates. When the cell density reached 70%–90%, the original media was changed to one containing 200 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and the culture was continued for an additional 8 h. Then, a portion of the cell samples were extracted and Quantitative Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) analysis was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol to determine M1-related genes, including those encoding IL-1, IL-6, and NOS2, to confirm the M1 phenotype. mRNA was collected using the NucleoZol kit (Machery-Nagel, Germany). Reverse transcription PCR was performed using the Hiscript II Q RT SuperMix reagent kit (Vazyme, China). SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Vazyme, China) was employed using qPCR. The 2−ΔΔCt method was used to measure the expression of the target gene. the qPCR reactions were conducted in triplicate for both the target and the housekeeping gene GAPDH. Using a cell scraper, the remaining cells were removed before the scaffold and 2 × 105 cells per well were seeded in 6-well plates. At 1 and 3 days, cell samples from each group were collected for qPCR analysis. The primer sequences are shown in Supplemental Table S1.

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.
