For overexpression or suppression of miR-382, cells were transfected with miR-382 mimics (50 nM, RiboBio, China), miR-382 inhibitor (100 nM, Ribobio, China), or their negative controls for 48 hrs, respectively. To further investigate the role of PTEN and Akt in miR-382-associated hepatocyte proliferation and cell growth, cells were transfected with siRNA-PTEN (sequence-01 or 02, 75 nM, Ribobio, China) or siRNA-negative control for 48 hrs, or treated with Akt activator SC 79 (4 μg/mL, No. 4635, Tocris, UK) or Akt inhibitor LY 294002 (25 μM, No. 1130, Tocris, UK) for 24 hrs, respectively.

Immunostaining of Microtubules in MRC-5 Cells
lung fibroblast
(MRC-5) cells were purchased from China Type Culture Collection. Cells
were kept under standard cell culture conditions (5% CO2, 37 °C). The culture media (Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s
medium, DMEM) were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (GIBCO)
and 1% penicillin–streptomycin (Nanjing KeyGen Biotech. Co.,
Ltd.). For fluorescence imaging, MRC-5 cells were seeded into cell
culture dishes and incubated for 24 h before use. Microtubules were
immunostained using the following procedure: washing in PBS; fixation
in a mixture of 4% paraformaldehyde and 0.1% glutaraldehyde in PBS
for 20 min; 3× washing with PBS; reduction with 1 mg/mL of NaBH4 for 7 min; 3× washing with PBS; permeabilization with
0.2% (v/v) Triton X-100 in PBS for 30 min; 3× washing with PBS;
blocking with 3% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 90 min and staining
overnight with the mouse antibody against β-tubulin; 3×
washing with PBS; post-fixation in a mixture of 4% paraformaldehyde
and 0.1% glutaraldehyde in PBS for 10 min.

Culturing HepG2 and SH-SY5Y Cell Lines
SH-SY5Y cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) with F12 (KeyGEN BioTECH, Nanjing, China), supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Sen Bei Jia) and antibiotics (penicillin streptomycin) (KeyGEN BioTECH, Nanjing, China). Cells were kept at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in a humidified atmosphere in a cell culture incubator and passaged twice a week.
Isolating Breast Cancer-Derived Conditioned Medium
. Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu, China) supplied apatinib free of cost, whereas DHA was ordered from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA; D2534). Dimethyl sulfoxide was used to dissolve apatinib, while 100% ethyl alcohol (<0.1%) was utilized to prepare a solution of DHA. Both solutions were freshly prepared for each test.
Preparation of MDA-MB-231-conditioned medium (CM)
Isolation of MDA-MB-231-CM was performed as described previously [38, 39] . Cultures of MDA-MB -231 cells were prepared in 100-mm 2 plates until they reached 70% confluence, and then they were cultured in 0-1% FBS for 24-48 h. The medium was extracted using 0.22-μm filter film and stored at -80°C.
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.
