5IU of PMSG (Prospec Cat# HOR-272) and HCG (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat # CG5–1VL) were injected intraperitoneally into 4–5 week old, wild-type C57BL/6J female or or C57BL/6J C3H/HeJ F1 mice 46–48h apart. Immediately following HCG injection, females were paired with C57BL/6J stud males and pronuclear stage embryos together with cumulus cell clusters were harvested from plugged females 20h after the mating. Pronuclear stage embryos were dissociated from cumulus cells using Hylorondase (Fisher, Cat # MR-0510F). Embryos were then incubated at 37C with 5% CO2 while siRNAs were prepared for injection. Before injection, scrambled siRNA (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat# AM4611) and Klf5 siRNAs (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat# 160900) and Klf4 siRNAs (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat# 156021) were prepared at a working concentration of 100uM were spun at 10k rpm for 5 min to clear debris. In experiments when we double knocked down Klf4 and Klf5, we prepared siRNA mixtures containing 50 uM Klf4 siRNAs and 50 uM Klf5 siRNAs. After the microinjection of siRNAs, embryos were cultured in vitro to E4.0, and then subjected to IF analyses described above.
Klf5 sirnas
Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Klf5 siRNAs are a set of small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules designed to target and silence the expression of the Krüppel-like factor 5 (Klf5) gene. The Klf5 gene encodes a transcription factor involved in various cellular processes. Klf5 siRNAs can be used as a research tool to study the function of the Klf5 gene in in vitro cell-based experiments.

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.
