Prior to applying FL-Htt-MO, 5′-TATTGCCTTTGAGATAAATCTTCAT-carboxyfluorescein-3′ was diluted in Endo-Porter PEG (Gene Tools, LLC. Philomath, OR 97370, USA) after removing the fertilization envelope to ensure access to the cells, as follows. Fresh eggs were obtained by injecting 0.5 M KCl into the coelomic cavity, then were pretreated with 1 mmol/L 3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. Tokyo, Japan) for 10 min, and inseminated [51 (link)]. Then, the softened fertilization envelopes were removed by passing the eggs through a 62 µm nylon mesh (Kyoshin Ricoh Inc., Tokyo, Japan). The denuded fertilized eggs were incubated in a mixture of 10 or 20 µM FL-Htt-MO [2 µL Stock sol + 4 µL Endo-Porter-PEG in 1 mL FSW (Gene Tools, LLC, https://www.gene-tools.com/content/getting-morpholinos-cultured-cells) (Access on: 3 March 2021)] or in normal FSW in a 24-well plate at a concentration of about 10 eggs/2 mL in a well at 18 °C until 4aPL. At the sBL, 2aPL, and 4aPL stages, they were used for examining ciliary beating activity as will be described below. Aliquots of these 4aPLs were fixed for whole-mount immunohistochemical analysis, as described above.

Fst Knockdown in Chick Somite Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fst-expressing somite tissue from wild-type chick embryos was dissected and cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium, 10% foetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin for 4 h before transfecting with 1 mM translation-blocking FstMO (Gene Tools; sequence 5′-GATCCTCTGATTTAACATCCTCAGC-3′) or 1 mM StdMO negative control (Gene Tools; sequence 5′-CCTCTTACCTCAGTTACAATTTATA-3′) using Endoporter PEG (Gene Tools). Protein was extracted after 48 h. Protein lysate (30 μg) was run on pre-cast 4-15% polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad) and blotted onto polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Bio-Rad). Primary antibody against Fst (Abcam ab47941; 1:2000) was applied at 4°C overnight and secondary polyclonal goat anti-rabbit-HRP (Cell Signaling Technology, 7074; 1:2000) was applied for 1 h at room temperature. Primary antibody against HSC70 (Santa Cruz, sc-7298; 1:2500) was applied at 4°C overnight and secondary polyclonal goat anti-mouse-HRP (Agilent, P0447; 1:1000) was applied for 1 h at room temperature. The blots were treated with an ECL substrate kit and imaged.

Modulating PKM and HDAC1 in Enteric Neuron Development

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Translation-blocking morpholino against HDAC1 and splice-modifying morpholinos targeting PKM: PKM1-MO (targeting splice junction between intron 8 and exon 9 of PKM) and PKM2-MO (targeting splice junction between exon 10 and intron 10 of PKM), were transfected into FACS-ENCCs with Endo-Porter PEG (Gene Tools) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In brief, ENCCs was replenished with fresh culture medium (N2 medium containing 10 ng ml−1 FGF2 and 3 μM CHIR99021) containing 5 μM morpholinos (HDAC1-MO, PKM1-MO, PKM2-MO, or control-MO) and swirled gently. Then, 6 μl Endo-Porter PEG was added to every 1 ml of medium and swirled immediately to mix. Neuronal differentiation was started 1 day after transfection, the medium was replaced with N2 medium supplemented with GDNF (10 ng ml−1) and ascorbic acid (200 μM) and maintained for 5 days. For seahorse analysis, the cellular metabolisms of ENCCs were assayed 48 h after transfection. The oligonucleotide sequences of morpholinos are listed in Supplementary Table 3.

RT-PCR and Doxo Resistance Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For RT-PCR and RT-qPCR analysis, MCF7-DoxoR cells were seeded at 300 000 cells/well in a six-well plate. Twenty four hours after seeding, splice-switching oligonucleotide (SSO) or standard control morpholino (Gene Tools, sequences in Supplementary Table S1) were transfected at a final concentration of 5 μM with Endo-Porter PEG (Gene Tools) according to the manufacturer's instruction. Cells were harvested 48 h later for RNA extraction. For WST-1 assay, MCF7-DoxoR cells were seeded at 6000 cells/well in six replicates in a 96-well plate on day 1. Twenty four hours later on day 2, cells were transfected with 5 μM SSO or control morpholino. On day 3, triplicates were treated or not with 150 μM Doxo. Seventy two hours later on day 6, WST-1 assay was performed.

Somites of wild-type embryos were dissected and cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium, 10% fetal bovine serum, 1% penicillin/streptomycin for 4 h before being transfected with Gli3 MO (1 mM) or control MO (1 mM) using Endoporter PEG (Gene Tools) and protein extracted after 48 h. Somites from AM133- or AMscr-injected embryos were dissected for protein extraction. Protein lysate (31.5 μg) was run on pre-cast 4-15% polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad) and blotted onto polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (Bio-Rad). Primary antibody against Gli3 (1:200, 6F5 Gli3N, Genentech, Wen et al., 2010 (link)) was applied at 4°C overnight before secondary polyclonal goat anti-mouse HRP (1:1000, P0447, DAKO) was applied for 1 h at room temperature. The blots were treated with an ECL substrate kit (GE Healthcare) and imaged. Primary antibody against actin (1:1000, ab3280, Abcam) was applied at 4°C overnight; secondary polyclonal goat anti-mouse HRP was applied for 1 h at room temperature. The blots were treated with an ECL substrate kit and imaged. Quantification of blots was performed using ImageJ.

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.
