To validate the interaction between ZFAS1 and miR-647, cells were transfected with pCMV-MS2, pCMV-ZFAS1-MS2, pCMV-ZFAS1-mut-MS2 and pCMV-FLAG-MS2. Forty-eight hours later, cells were used to perform RIP assay using 5 μg anti-FLAG antibody (Sigma) and the Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Millipore, Bedford, MA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To detect the interaction between METTL3 or AGO2 and ZFAS1, RIP assay was carried out by using 5 μg anti-METTL3 antibody (Abcam) or anti-AGO2 antibody (Abcam) and the Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit. IgG was taken as a negative control. The RNA fraction isolated and purified by RIP assay was then examined by RT-PCR.

Tissues were fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin and then subjected to standard dewaxing and rehydration. The sections were incubated in citric acid buffer (pH 6.0) for 15 min for antigen retrieval, followed by incubation for 10 min with 3% H2O2 solution to inactivate endogenous enzymatic activity. The sections were then incubated with anti-NCALD antibody (ProteinTech Group, Inc.; cat. no. 12925-1-AP; 1:200) or anti-METTL3 antibody (Abcam; cat. no. ab195352; 1:500) for 1 h at 25°C followed by Elivision plus Polyer HRP (mouse/rabbit) immunohistochemistry kit (Maxim Biotech, Inc.; cat. no. KIT-9903; 1:1,000) for 30 min at 20°C. The results were evaluated by two pathologists who were blinded to the patients. Immunoreactivity was scored using the H-score system (33 (link)) ranging from 0 to 4. The staining intensity ranged from 0-3, thus giving a range from 0-12. Patients were divided into a low-expression group (score <4) or a high-expression group (score ≥4).

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.
