Assessing miR-222 Regulation by ADAR1 and CEACAM1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Procedure was performed as previously described [21 (link)]. Briefly, 293T cells were seeded in five 10cm culture dishes and transfected with ADAR1 or Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) constructs together with miR-222 precursor construct. After 48 h, RNA was extracted from one culture dish using Tri Reagent (Sigma-Aldrich) in order to assess ADAR1, CEACAM1 and pri-miR-222 expression by qRT-PCR as described above. The remaining cells were immunoprecipitated using Dynabeads Protein G (Invitrogen, cat#Dy_10003D) and anti-ADAR (Sigma-Aldrich) or anti-CEACAM1 (MRG1 [57 (link)]) antibodies. At the end of the precipitation procedure, RNA was extracted using miRNeasy Kit (Qiagen, cat#217004). Reverse transcription was obtained using Universal Transcriptor cDNA master (Roche). Successful transfection and immunoprecipitation were confirmed by WB. Pri-miR-222 expression following immunoprecipitation was assessed by qRT-PCR.

Plasmids used in this study are listed in Supplementary Table 3. cDNAs were made using Transcriptor Universal cDNA Master (Roche Applied Science, 05 893 151 001). PCR products were amplified from cDNA using Phusion high fidelity DNA polymerase with primers containing the Gateway recombination site or restriction enzyme sites for Gateway entry vector and cloned into pDONR221 or pENTR using Gateway recombination cloning. Plasmids were made by conventional restriction enzyme-based cloning and/or by use of the Gateway recombination system (Invitrogen). Point-mutants were generated using the QuikChange site-directed mutagenesis (Stratagene, 200523). Oligonucleotides for mutagenesis, PCR and DNA sequencing were from Invitrogen or Sigma. Plasmid constructs were verified by conventional restriction enzyme digestion and/or by DNA sequencing with BigDye (Applied Biosystems, 4337455).

DDR1 Inhibition Modulates Collagen-Induced PEC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse primary PEC were plated and rested overnight. Cells were incubated in RPMI-1640 containing 1% serum and supplemented with different concentrations of DDR1 inhibitor (0.01, 0.1 and 1 μM) for 1 h followed by additional treatment with type I collagen 100 μg/mL (Nitta Gelatin, Japan). After 6 or 24 h of type I collagen stimulation, cells were lysed for phospho DDR1 ELISA (Cell Signaling Technology) and total RNA isolation. Total RNA was isolated and amplified using an RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen) and Transcriptor Universal cDNA Master (Roche) according to manufacturer’s instructions. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed on a LightCycler LC480 (Roche) for C3, Mmp2, Mmp14 and Vcam1 using the following primers: C3 (Mm01232779_m1, TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays, Applied Biosystems), Mmp2 (Mm00439498_m1), Mmp14 (Mm00485054_m1), and Vcam1 (Mm01320970_m1). Relative gene expression was calculated with the 2-∆Ct method using GAPDH as an endogenous control.

A2780-EV and A2780-COMMD1 cells were grown to 70% confluency and were left untreated or were treated with 2mM cisplatin for 24hrs. Cells were harvested in QIAzol Lysis Reagent (Qiagen), and total RNA was isolated by chloroform extraction. Isopropanol-precipitated and ethanol-washed RNA pellets were dissolved in RNase/DNase free water. One microgram of RNA was used to prepare cDNA with the Transcriptor Universal cDNA Master (Roche), according to the protocol provided by the manufacturer. 20 ng cDNA was used for subsequent quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis using FastStart SYBR Green Master (Roche) and 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). The following PCR program was used: 50°C/2 minutes, 95°C/10 minutes, 40 cycles of 95°C/15 seconds and 60°C/1 minute. Expression data were analyzed using SDS 2.3 software (Applied Biosystems), using the ‘standard curve’ method of calculation. GAPDH expression was used as an internal control.

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.
