Serum was thawed and analyzed for the Ca content using a microplate reader with Ca assay kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China). Serum P contents were determined by the molybdenum blue method (Goldenberg and Fernandez, 1966 (link)). The 25-OHD3 level in serum was determined by the method of ELISA with the assay kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute). The left tibias were grinded, homogenized, and then sonicated and centrifuged at 1,000 × g for 10 min at 4°C to harvest the supernatants for ALP activity analysis. The ALP activities in serum and the tibia were measured using a microplate reader with ALP assay kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute).

After treatment with OM for 1, 3, 5 and 7 days, MC3T3-E1 cells were rinsed with PBS, solubilized in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, 100 mM glycine) for 5 min and centrifuged (2,000 × g; room temperature; 5 min) to collect the supernatant. The ALP activity in the supernatant was then determined using ALP Assay kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The ALP activity was normalized to total the protein concentration, which was determined using BCA Protein Assay kits (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.).

ALP staining was conducted as described in the section ‘BMSC culture and identification’. To evaluate ALP activity, osteoblasts on samples were lysed with RIPA lysis buffer (Beyotime, China) and were assessed using an ALP assay kit (Jiancheng Inc, China) and a BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime, China) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. ALP activity was normalized to the total protein content of the cell lysate.
Alizarin red S staining was conducted as described in the section ‘BMSC culture and identification’. The stains were eluted with 10% cetylpyridinium chloride in 10 mM sodium phosphate (pH 7.0) for quantification analysis.

After osteogenic induction for 7 days, cells were subjected to ALP staining and quantification as previously described [22 (link)]. ALP staining was conducted using the NBT/BCIP staining kit (CoWin Biotech, Beijng, China). An ALP assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China) was used to quantify ALP activity. The bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method with a Pierce protein assay kit (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) was used to measure the total protein concentration. After normalization to the total protein concentration, the ALP levels relative to the control group were analyzed.

MC3T3-E1 cells were incubated in a 24-well plate at a density of 2×104 cells/well (n = 4). After culturing for 24 h, the medium was replaced with fresh osteogenic induction medium containing dexamethasone (100 nM, Sigma, United States), β-glycerophosphate (10 mM, Sigma, United States) and L-ascorbic acid (50 mM, Sigma, United States). After 4 and 7 d of osteogenic induction, the total amount of protein was examined by a BCA protein assay kit (Beyotime, China). An ALP assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng, China) was employed for the quantitative assessment of ALP. Finally, the ALP activity was measured according to the instructions, and it was standardized to the total protein content. Afterwards, at testing time points on 4 and 7 d of induction, the cells were stained with a BCIP/NBT Kit (Beyotime, China) and observed by stereomicroscopy (Olympus, Japan).

DPSCs were transfected with siRNA (Sense 5′-CCUAAACUCGAAUCUGAUUTT - 3′, Antisense 5′-AAUCAGAUUCGAGUUUAGGTT - 3′) to reduce the expression of lncRNA SMILR using the Micropoly-transfecter Cell Reagent (Micropoly, Xian, Shanxi, China). DPSCs transfected with non-target siRNA (Sense 5′- UUCUCCGAACGUGUCACGUTT- 3′, Antisense 5′- ACUUGACACGUUCGGAGAATT- 3′) were used as control group. All DPSCs were cultured in the osteogenic medium for 7 days (DPSCs were transfected again on the fourth day to enhance the effect of siRNA), then were collected for Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining (by NBT/BCIP staining kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China)), ALP activity assay (by ALP assay kit (Jiancheng, Nanjing, China)) and qRT-PCR experiments.

The substrates, deionized water for the blank, standard solution for the control, and corresponding cell lysates for samples were added to 96-well plates, respectively. They were then mixed with buffer solution and Matrix fluid before incubation at 37°C for 15 min. Chromogenic agent was then added and the OD values were measured at 520 nm. The protein content of each sample was also measured using a BCA Protein Assay Kit (Beyotime, China).

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.
