Cells were grown in six-well plates at a density of 5 × 105 cells/mL in 1 % charcoal-stripped FBS media (Invitrogen) for 24 h prior to the start of each experiment. Cells were incubated with vehicle (dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO, final 0.1 %) or E2 (0, 1, 10, 50, or 100 nM) for 48 h. RNA was extracted from cells using the Promega SV Total RNA Isolation System for Tissues and reverse transcribed (0.2 μg) using the Quanta qScript cDNA supermix (Quanta Biosciences). cDNA was diluted (1:10) and amplified using the Perfecta SYBR Green FastMix (Quanta Biosciences). Groups were normalized to vehicle using the delta delta Ct method (ddCt). Glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) mRNA abundance was used to control for DNA template concentrations. Primers for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) [17 (link)], forward 5′-CTAGCCATGGGCGTGAAC-3′ reverse 5′-GAATACTAGTGCTAAGGTGTCTGCAT-3′ and GAPDH, forward 5′-GCCAAAAGGGTCATCATCTC-3′ reverse 5′-GGCCATCCACAGTCTTCT-3′ were utilized for this study.

Neurospheres were suspended into single cells suspension and plated in 24-well cell culture plates. Accell siRNA reagents (GE Dharmacon, Lafayette, CO) were used to knockdown BAF150 and BAF170. Accell Mouse Smarcc1 (E-044249) siRNA and Accell Mouse Smarcc2 (E-042842) siRNA – SMARTpool were delivered together to culture wells at a final concentration of 1µM each. Accell Non-targeting Pool (siRNA control, D-001910-10) was delivered to control wells at 2µM final concentration and Accell Cyclophilin B Pool (D-001920-20) was used to assess the transfection efficiency. After 72 hours of transfection, RNA was isolated by the Qiagen miRNeasy micro kit (Qiagen). The Quanta qScript cDNA Supermix (Quanta Biosciences, Beverly, MA) was used for first strand cDNA synthesis. Knock down of BAF150 and BAF170 was confirmed using qRT-PCR. After knockdown, miR-9 expression levels were analyzed using the Exiqon miRCURY LNA Universal RT microRNA cDNA synthesis kit (Exiqon A/S, Vedbaek Denmark) was used to synthesize cDNA qRT-PCR, which was subsequently performed using a commercial miR-9 primer set (Exiqon, #202240) with the small nuclear RNA, U6 (Exiqon, #203907), as a loading control

Cell lysis was performed by using Qiazol Lysis reagent (Qiagen). RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). RNA concentration and quality were determined with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (Isogen Life Science). Complementary DNA (cDNA) synthesis was performed by using the Quanta qScript cDNA SuperMix (Quanta Biosciences) per manufacturer instructions. qPCR was conducted on the StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems) using a SYBR green mix containing 1× SYBR green (Applied Biosystems), 0.3 μM primers (Integrated DNA Technologies), 12.5 ng cDNA, and nuclease-free water. The comparative Ct method was used to quantify gene expression. Data were normalized to the most stable reference genes cyclin A and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1. Primer sequences are available in SI Appendix, Table S1.

35S:AlcR/AlcA:AIL6-amiR ant-4 and 35S:ALCR/AlcA:ANT-IR plants were mock treated or treated with ethanol vapor by placing 2 ml of water or 2 ml of 100% ethanol in 2 ml centrifuge tubes in half of the pots in a tray. The tray was covered with a plastic dome. Inflorescences were collected at the end of an 8 h (35S:AlcR/AlcA:AIL6-amiR ant-4) or 24 h (35S:ALCR/AlcA:ANT-IR) treatment. RNA was isolated using an RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen) or TRIzol (Life Technologies). Samples isolated with TRIzol were further purified on an RNeasy column (Qiagen) and treated with DNase while on the column. First-strand cDNA synthesis was performed using Quanta qScript cDNA SuperMix (Quanta BioSciences) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) was performed on a BioRad CFX96 or CFX Connect real-time PCR system using PerfeCTa SYBR Green FastMix for iQ (Quanta BioSciences) and primers listed in Supplementary Table S1. Data analyses were carried out as described previously (Krizek and Eaddy, 2012 (link)). At least two biological replicates were analyzed for each experiment.

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.
