SGC7901, SGC7901/ADM and SGC7901/VCR cells were transfected with 100 nM miR-1 mimics or miR-1 inhibitor for miR-1 overexpression and knockdown, respectively. miR-NC (100 nM) and inhibitor NC (100 nM) were used as negative controls. Transfection was conducted using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Six hours post-transfection, the medium was changed with fresh medium. At 48 h post-transfection, the cells were used in subsequent experiments.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MiR-1 mimics and AMO-1 for rats were synthesized by Shanghai GenePharma Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). AMO-1 contains 2’-O-methyl modifications. In addition, scrambled RNA (mis-miR-1) was used as a negative control. Snap25-masking antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) were synthesized by Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd., China, and these ODNs complemented the position of 408–430 containing the binding sites of miR-1 located at position 413–420 in the 3’ UTR of Snap25. The nucleotides or deoxynucleotides at both ends of the antisense molecules were locked by a methylene bridge connecting the 2’-O and 4’-C atoms. The sequences of these synthesized oligonucleotides are shown in Table 1.

Transfection of miR-1 Mimics and Inhibitors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
miR-1mimics, miR-1 inhibitor, NC and inhibitor NC were designed and synthesized by GenePharma (Shanghai, China). Solutions were dissolved in DEPC water to reach a final concentration of 20 µM. In a six-well plate, approximately 5–6 × 105 cells in logarithmic growth phase in medium containing serum and double antibody were added to each well. miR-1 mimics, NC and serum-free 1640 medium were added to TE-1 and KYSE410 cells to a final concentration of 50 nM. miR-1 inhibitor, inhibitor NC and serum-free medium were added to TE-1 and KYSE410 cells to a final concentration of 150 nM. For each group, 12 μl of HiPerFect transfection reagent was added to the samples. After incubation at room temperature for 5–10 min, the mixture was added to the cells, and the cells were placed in an incubator.

miR-1 Gain/Loss-of-Function in KYSE-150 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The miR-1 gain-of-function experiments using KYSE-150 cells were performed using miR-1 mimics (100 nM) purchased from Shanghai GenePharma Co., Ltd., (Shanghai, China) and its negative control (NC, 100 nM). The loss-of-function experiments using KYSE-150 cells were performed using miR-1 inhibitor (100 nM) and its NC (100 nM). The miR-1 inhibitor was 2′-O-methyl oligoribonucleotides, purchased from GenePharma. For each experiment, we included a negative control. The cells were transfected using Lipofectamine™ 2000 (Invitrogen) in Opti-MEM (Gibco) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The transfection efficiency was confirmed by the RT-qPCR detection of miR-1 expression.

Role of HOTAIR and miR-1 in ESCC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Six ESCC cell lines (KYSE30, KYSE140, KYSE150, KYSE180, KYSE410, and KYSE510) were purchased from the German Culture Collection (DSMZ, Braunschweig, Germany). Human normal esophageal epithelium cells (HEEpiC) were obtained from ScienCell (Carlsbad, CA). These cells were grown in RPMI 1640 (Biowhittaker, Walkersville, MD) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (HyClone, Logan, UT) at 37°C under 5% CO2 and saturated moisture.
For investigating the role of HOTAIR, KYSE30 and KYSE510 cells were transfected with either siRNAs targeting HOTAIR (si-HOTAIR) or scrambled negative controls (si-NC; GenePharma, Shanghai, China). For investigating the relationship between HOTAIR and miR-1, HOTAIR cDNA and miR-1 mimics (GenePharma) were cloned into the mammalian expression vector pcDNA3.1 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) individually or in combination, and then the vectors were transfected into cells. For the function study of CCND1, KYSE30 and KYSE510 cells were transfected with either si-CCND1 or si-NC. All transfection reactions were performed by using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) following the manufacturer's instructions.

The cells were transiently transfected with 50 nM miR-1 mimics or the 50 nM negative control (Genepharma, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA) using Lipofectamine™ 2000 (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) diluted in Opti-MEM (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), according to the manufacturer's protocol. The negative control was a scrambled oligonucleotide not encoding any known miRNA. The sequences of miR-1 mimics and the negative control are presented in Table I. Transfection efficiency was confirmed by analyzing miR-1 expression level using the TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). Quantitative real-time PCR was run on ABI PRISM 7900HT (Applied Biosystems; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Subsequent experimentation was performed 24–48 h after transfection.

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.
