MiR-126 Expression Regulation in HUVECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HUVECs were seeded in culture dishes 24 h prior to the transfection. For enhanced or decreased expression of miR-126, miRNA mimics control (mimics NC), miR-126 mimics, miRNA inhibitor control (inhibitor NC), or miR-126 inhibitor were purchased from GenePharma (Suzhou, Jiangsu, China). miRNAs were transfected into HUVECs using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. At 24 h, cells were harvested for subsequent analysis.

Modulating miR-215 and RAD54B expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
As described by Jiang et al in previous research.19 For enhanced or decreased expression of miR‐215, miRNA mimics control (mimics NC), miR‐215 mimics, miRNA inhibitor control (inhibitor NC), or miR‐215 inhibitor were purchased from GenePharma. miRNAs were transfected into cells using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After 24 hours, cells were harvested for subsequent analysis.
The adenovirus vector constructed by UCBio (Changsha, China) was used for stable overexpression or knockdown of RAD54B in cells according to the manufacturer's instructions, and selected with puromycin (Sigma‐Aldrich) for 2‐3 weeks to obtain stable cell lines.

Culturing and Transfecting Human VSMCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Human VSMCs were obtained from the Cell Center of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (Shanghai, China), cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; HyClone, Logan, UT, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, HyClone), 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) at 37°C in 5% CO2. The cells in the logarithmic growth phase were used for follow-up experiments.
We purchased pcDNA3.1-control, pcDNA3.1-FGF1, miRNA mimics control (mimics-NC), miRNA inhibitors control (inhibitors-NC), miR-188-3p mimics, and miR-188-3p inhibitors from GenePharma Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). VSMCs were harvested and seeded into a 24-well plate at a density of 3×105 cells/well, and cell transfection was performed after 24 h of culture. VSMCs were transfected using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) conforming to the protocols.

Modulating miR-326 and HDAC3 in BMSCs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BMSCs were transfected with miR-326 mimics (5′-CCCCCGTCCCGGAAACACTT-3′) for overexpression the miR-326 level, miRNA mimics control (mimics NC), miR-326 inhibitor (5′-TTACAAAGGCCCTGCCCTGCCCCC-3′) for knockdown the miR-326 level, and miRNA inhibitor control (inhibitor NC) (GenePharma, China). HDAC3 overexpression plasmid pcDNA3.1-HDAC3 (HDAC3 OE) and its negative control plasmid (NC OE) purchased from GenePharma were used to transfect chondrocytes. Cell transfections were performed using the transfection reagent Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen, USA) according to manufacturer's instructions. In brief, cells (3 × 105) were seeded into 6-well plates for cell transfection upon cell fusion of 60~80%. 500 μL Opti-MEM culture medium (Gibco, USA) containing 5 μL Lipofectamine 2000 and 5 μL miR-326 mimics, inhibitors, or controls was added to each well and cultured in an incubator at 37°C for 6 h. The captured cells were treated with 100 nM Trichostatin A or 50 μmol/L AG490 at room temperature for 4 h.

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.
