Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NHEK cells were seeded (1 × 105 cells/well) into 6 well plates and were pretreated with 50 μM of EGCG for 2 h prior to transfection. Untreated cells were incubated with the same amount of sterile distilled water used as EGCG solvent for the same treatment time. Subsequently, the cells were co-transfected with empty vector or E7 with pCMV-βgal-R1 vector using TransIT-X2® transfectant (Mirus) for 24 h according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After transfection, cells were lysed with 5X reporter lysis buffer (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and then used for assays. β-galactosidase assay was used to β-galactosidase enzyme assay system with reporter lysis buffer (E2000; Promega) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

PC-3/N cells35 (link) were treated with ROB and/or DOC for 24 h, and then the cells were harvested in 1× reporter lysis buffer (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). After centrifugation, 10 µl aliquots of the supernatants were mixed with 10 µl of luciferase substrate (Promega) and measured for the luciferase activity by using a Luminometer LuMate™ (Awareness Technology, Palm City, FL, USA). The luciferase activity was normalised against known protein concentrations and expressed as the percentage of luciferase activity in the control cells. The protein level was determined by Bio-Rad protein assay kits (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

In brief, 0.6 µg luciferase reporter and were cotransfected along with 0.3 µg pCMV-lacZ (Promega Corporation) plasmid into the 786-O cells (SCR and shKMT5A). At 48 h following transfection, these cells were harvested and lysed in 1× reporter lysis buffer (Promega Corporation). Luciferase activities were determined with luciferase assay system (Promega Corporation) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The method of normalization was the Firefly comparison with Renilla luciferase activity.

Myogenin Promoter Regulation by AVP and LY294002

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
L6 cells were plated in 6-well 35-mm culture dishes at a density of 2.5 × 105 cells/well. Twenty-four hours later, cells were transfected with 1.5 µg of expression vectors driven by the myogenin promoter fragments: pMyo84-luc, pMyo84(mMEF2)-luc and pMyo84(-E1)-luc using the Lipofectamine reagent (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The plasmid encoding β-galactosidase under the control of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter, CMV-βgal, was included to monitor transfection efficiency and for normalization of reactions. At 24 h after the start of transfection, the transfection mixture was removed and replaced with DMEM + 1% bovine serum albumin and the cells were treated with or without 0.1 μM AVP, 20 μM LY294002 and AVP + LY294002 for 48 h. Cells were then washed twice with PBS and scraped in 1× reporter lysis buffer (Promega, Milan, Italy). Luciferase activity was determined with a luciferase assay kit (Promega, Milan, Italy).

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.
