Silencing SKP2 Using siRNA Transfection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting SKP2 were purchased from Qiagen. For transient expression, the cell lines were transfected using HiPerFect Transfection Reagent (Qiagen), as outlined in the HiPerFect Transfection Reagent Handbook (Fifth edition, Qiagen). AllStars Negative siRNA AF 488 (Qiagen) was used both as a negative control and to determine the transfection efficiency. Two independent experiments were performed. SKP2 siRNA data: the target sequence is 5′-AAGTGATAGTCATGCTAAA-3′, the sense strand is 5′-GUGAUAGUGUCAUGCUAAATT-3′ and the antisense strand is 5′-UUUAGCAUGACACUAUCACTT-3′.

The transfection of the podocytes with c-Abl siRNA (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany) was performed according to the HiPerFect Transfection Reagent Handbook (QIAGEN). Briefly, 2 × 105 cells were seeded in a six-well plate and transfected with the complexes containing 10 nM c-Abl siRNA (or a negative control with scrambled siRNA) and 15 μl of HiPerFect transfection reagent under normal growth conditions for 24 h.
pcDNA3.1-mNPHS1 was kindly provided by L. B. Holzman (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI). pcDNA3-Abl-His6-FLAG was a gift from Benjamin Turk (Addgene plasmid #52684). The transfection of the c-Abl/nephrin plasmid was performed using the X-tremeGENE HP DNA Transfection Reagent (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 2 × 105 cells were seeded in a six-well plate and transfected with the complexes containing 2 μg of either c-Abl or nephrin plasmid (or a negative control with pcDNA3.1/pcDNA3) and 6 μl of the X-tremeGENE transfection reagent under normal growth conditions for 72 h. G418 (Sigma-Aldrich) was used to select the stably transfected cell lines.

Itga8 Gene Silencing in Rat Mesangial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gene silencing of Itga8 was achieved by transfection of rat MC with Itga8 siRNA (si Itga8) according to the "fast protocol" from the HiPerFect Transfection Reagent Handbook (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). MC were transfected in cell suspension with a final concentration of 5nM si Itga8 (sense: GAC CUC CUC AGG AUG AAA UdT dT, antisense: AUU UCA UCC UGA GGA GGU CdT dT, Qiagen) before seeding to allow silencing for 72 hours. A nonsilencing siRNA (si co) (sense: UUC UCC GAA CGU GUC ACG UdT dT, antisense: ACG UGA CAC GUU CGG AGA AdTdT, Qiagen) was used as control. To control for effective silencing, real-time PCR for Itga8 expression levels was performed, as described in [26] . Moreover, western blot analysis was used to confirm down regulation of Itga8 on protein level.

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.
