Regulation of miR-146a expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pGL3-miR-146a promoter reporter plasmid (miR-146a promoter-luc) was a pGL-basic vector containing a 560–base pair upstream sequence of the predicted transcriptional start site of the pri-miR-146a (primary transcript of miR-146a; Taganov et al., 2006 (link)). The NF-κB p65 submit overexpression vector was a kind gift from Jae Won Rhee (Rhee et al., 2007 (link)). The kappa B (IκB) dominant-negative (IκB DN, IκB (S32A⁄S36A)) plasmid was used to inhibit NF-κB activity (Tang et al., 2009b (link)). MiR-146a mimics (double-stranded RNA oligonucleotides) and inhibitors (single-stranded chemically modified oligonucleotides) (GenePharma, Shanghai, China) were used to overexpress and inhibit miR-146a expression in cells. Negative control mimics or inhibitors (GenePharma, Shanghai, China) were transfected to act as matched controls. HDAC1 siRNA (sc-35422, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) and NF-κB p65 siRNA (sc-37007, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) were used to inhibit the activity of HDAC1 and NF-κB p65 submit, respectively. Macrophages described in the Cell culture and treatment section were transfected with RNAs at a final concentration of 10 nM using INTERFERin (Polyplus-Transfection SA, Illkirch, France) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

MNCs were isolated from human whole venous blood and cord blood by conventional Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation and resuspended in EGM-2 SingleQuots (#CC-4176, Lonza, Basel, Switzerland). Peripheral blood or cord blood MNCs (PBMNCs or CBMNCs, respectively, 4 × 106 cells/mL) were seeded on a fibronectin (50 μg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich)-coated plate and incubated in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37 °C for 4 days. After being carefully washed, adherent MNCs were transfected with or without AllStars Negative Control for siRNA and miRNA mimic experiments (#1027280, Qiagen), miScript Inhibitor Negative Control for miRNA inhibitor experiments (#1027272, Qiagen), miRNA inhibitors (80 nM, Qiagen), miRNA mimics (80 nM, Qiagen), and NF-κB p65 siRNA (80 nM, Santa Cruz) as described previously12 (link)–15 , followed by treatment with or without human TNF-α (10 ng/mL, R&D Systems) for another 4 days. In addition, some adherent MNCs were cultured in medium 199 supplemented with 30% human autologous serum in the presence or absence of an anti-human TNF-α antibody (5 μg/mL; #MAB210, R&D Systems) for another 4 days.

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.
