HER2 Silencing and Paclitaxel Treatment in MCF-7PR Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MCF-7PR cells were transfected with HER2 siRNA (Cell Signaling Technologies, Danvers, MA) using siPORT (Ambion Inc, Austin, TX) transfection reagent as per manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, approximately 0.2 × 106 cells/well were plated in 6 well plate and left overnight for attachment. Next day, cells were transfected with 100 nM HER2 siRNA or scrambled siRNA using siPORT reagent and 8 h post transfection, cells were treated with 20 nM of paclitaxel for additional 72 h. The cells were collected after treatment and processed for western blot analysis.

Atovaquone Reduces HER2 Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Approximately 0.2X106 SKBR3 and MCF-7HH cells were plated in 6 well plate and left overnight for attachment. Next day, cells were transfected with HER2 siRNA (Cell Signaling) as per manufacturer’s instructions using siPORT transfection reagent. After 8 hours of transfection, cells were treated with 20µM atovaquone for 72 h and the cell lysate was used for western blotting. In another experiment, HER2 shRNA and scrambled shRNA (Genecopoeia, Rockville, MD) were transfected in SKBR3 cells using Xfect Transfection reagent (Clonetech) as per manufacturer’s instructions. After 8 hours of transfection, cells were treated with 20µM atovaquone. After 72h of atovaquone treatment, cell lysate was analyzed by western blotting.

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.
