Modulating miR-19a-3p and IGFBP3 in SH-SY5Y cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The miR-19a-3p inhibitor (inhibitor) and its negative control (miR-NC) were synthesized by GenePharma Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). The pcDNA3.1/IGFBP3 vector was generated by inserting the open reading frame of IGFBP3 without 3′UTR into the pcDNA3.1 vector (Sangon Biotech, Shanghai, China). Small interference RNA against IFGBP3 (si-IGFBP3) was purchased from GenePharma Co., Ltd. Before OGD/R, SH-SY5Y cells were seeded at a density of 3 × 105 cells per well and transfected with inhibitor, miR-NC, IGFBP3 or empty vector. In the rescue experiments, si-IGFBP3 was transfected into miR-19a-3p silenced SH-SY5Y cells. All these transfection procedures were performed for 48 h using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) following the manufacturer’s protocols.

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.
