Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The general scheme of the transfection protocol of A549 cells is illustrated in Figure S1A. 2e 5 cells were plated in 6-cm dishes to achieve 40% confluence at the time of transfection. Cells were transfected with ON-TARGETplus SMARTpool siRNAs (Dharmacon) using Lipofectamine RNAiMAX (13778-150, Life Technologies) for 4 hr at 10 nM in OPTI-MEM media (31985-070, Life Technologies). Subsequently, equal volume of cell media was added containing 20% FBS, to achieve 5 nM siRNA and 10% FBS final concentrations, and the transfection was allowed to go on overnight. Next day, media was exchanged over cells for fresh 10% FBS containing media. The following day, the transfection protocol was repeated again. 24 hr after the second transfection, cells were trypsinized, counted, and plated for 96-well-format growth assays.
Matching control siRNA, NT, was purchased from Dharmacon (D-001810-10-05).
The protocol for siRNA transfection of H838 cells was the same as for A549 cells. GOT1 was knocked down using ON-TARGETplus siRNA (J-011673-10, GE Dharmacon). GOT2 was knocked down using ON-TARGETplus siRNA (J-011674-10, Dharmacon).

For KD experiments using siRNAs, the different cell lines were transfected in 6‐well plates with Lipofectamine RNAiMax combined with 10 nm of the different ON‐TARGETplus siRNAs from Dharmacon as indicated. 12 h after transfection, cells were trypsinized and seeded for the corresponding assays. For siRNA/DNA cotransfection, cell lines were seeded in 6‐well plates and transfected with Lipofectamine 2000 combined with 10 nm of the ON‐TARGETplus siRNAs from Dharmacon and 1 µg of plasmid DNA. For lentivirus generation, 1 × 106 HEK293T cells were seeded in 6‐well plates in DMEM 10% FBS the day before transfection. 1 µg of pLenti6‐H2B‐mCherry, pHR_dSV40‐Aurora A–GFP, pLenti6‐ADRP, or pLKO vectors were transfected in the cells with Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen 11668027), in combination with 1 µg psPAX2 and 100 ng pMD2.G. 48 h later, the supernatant was recovered, filtered, and used to infect the cells.

These siRNAs were used to deplete protein levels of GADD34 and CReP protein levels respectively. A non-targeting siRNA from Dharmacon Inc. (cat # D-001810–10) was used as a control. Transfection of siRNA was performed using Dharmafect I reagent (Dharmacon Inc., Lafayette, CO) and the cells were harvested after 48 hours of transfection for protein extraction.

ON-TARGETplus siRNA targeting human AKTIP, SGK3 and STAT3 as well as SMARTpool ON-TARGETplus siRNA targeting 10 AKTIP-bound proteins were purchased from Dharmacon (Lafayette, CO). ESR1, CAND1, FASN and USP7 siRNA were obtained from Integrated DNA Technologies (Coraville, IA). The siRNA sequences are listed in Table S3. Lipofectamine RNAiMAX (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) was used to transfect siRNA at 10 nM. shRNA against AKTIP in pLKO.1-Puro lentiviral vector was developed by The RNAi Consortium (TRC).87 (link) pcDNA3-myc3-CUL2 and pcDNA3-myc3-NEDD8 were gifts from Yue Xiong (Addgene plasmid # 19892 and # 19943).84 (link),85 (link) Transfection of plasmids was performed using Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen).

Knockdown of TDP-43 in SH-SY5Y Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells (ATCC Cat# CRL-2266) were cultured in DMEM F12 (Gibco, Cat#1132-033) containing 1% of Penicillin–Streptomycin (Gibco, Cat#15140-122) and 10% of Fetal Bovine Serum (Sigma, Cat# F0926) and kept at 37 °C and 5% CO2. TDP-43 knockdown was achieved by transfecting cells with pooled siRNAs against TARDBP (ON-TARGETplus siRNA, Dharmacon, Cat# L-012394) or control siRNA (ON-TARGETplus Non-targeting Control Pool, Dharmacon, Cat# D001810–10) using Lipofectamine RNAiMAX Transfection Reagent (Cat# 13778075) in Opti-MEM™ (Gibco, Cat#31985070). For the dose-dependency analyses we used decreasing amounts of siRNAs ranging from 25 to 0.125 pmol per well. Cells were treated with siRNA either for 3 or 5 days, as previous studies reported decrease in UNC13A transcripts after longer knockdown of TDP-43 [16 (link), 57 (link)].

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.
