Hepatic Stellate Cell Co-culture with Aptamers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A 0.4 micron transwell system was used for co-culture experiments, with hepatic stellate LX2 cells seeded on the bottom well and HepG2 cells on the top transwell at a 1:1 ratio (30% confluency) in 6-well culture dishes. Cells were grown in standard Eagles Minimum Essential Medium (Corning Cellgro, Mediatech, Inc, Manassas, VA) with 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C and 5% CO2. Experimental groups received 100 nM of OPN-R3 aptamer (APT) or mutant aptamer (MuAPT) daily. Cells were cocultured for a total of 72 hours, after which HepG2 cells were removed and RNA from LX2 cells was acquired using Trizol.
The pharmacologic properties and sequences of OPN-R3 aptamer (APT) and mutant aptamer (MuAPT) have been previously published [32 (link)].

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.
