Transient Knockdown of CUGBP1 in A549 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549 cells were seeded at a density of 5 × 105 cells/well in a 6-well plate and treated with 20 pmol siRNA oligonucleotides the next day using Lipofectamine 2000® (Invitrogen) according to manufacturer’s instructions. A previously published anti-CUGBP1 siRNA (5′-GCUGUUUAUUGGUAUGAUU-3′) was used for transient knockdown (Δ) of CUGBP1 (Vlasova-St Louis and Bohjanen, 2011 (link)). As control, a scramble siRNA with an unspecific sequence (5′-UCUCUCACAACGGGCAUUU-3′) was used. 24 h after transfection, A549 cells were incubated with 5 ng/ml of Interleukin (IL)-1β (Sigma-Aldrich) for further 24 h. The efficiency of the knockdown was determined by Western blot analysis as described in Saul et al. (2019a) (link).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The human chondrocyte cell line CHON-001 and 293T cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection. Cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and 2 mM glutamine (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) andplaced at 37˚C in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO2. CHON-001 cells were treated with 10 ng/ml interleukin (IL)-1β (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) at room temperaturefor 24 h to generate an in vitro model of OA (16 (link)). The nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) inhibitor BAY 11-7085 (10 µM) was purchased from MedChemExpress.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The human embryonal kidney cell line (HEK 293) (DMSZ, ACC 035) and HeLa (DMSZ, ACC57) cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM, Life Technologies, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, USA) with 10% (v/v) heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS, Life Technologies, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, USA), 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 1 mM sodium pyruvate (PAA the Cell Culture Company, Cölbe, GER). Synovial fibroblasts (SFs) of RA patients were cultured as described previously (16 (link)). This study was approved by the Institutional Ethical Committee (Solna, Stockholm, Sweden ethical number 2009/1262-31/3) and is in compliance with all ethical standards and patients' consent according to the Declaration of Helsinki. Cell culture was carried out in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37°C. SFs were seeded at a density of 5 × 104 cells/well in 24-well plates and cultured in DMEM-medium supplemented with EV-free FBS (Gibco, Life Technologies, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, USA), 100 U/ml penicillin 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 1 mM sodium pyruvate for 24 h before they were stimulated with 10 ng/ml ml interleukin (IL)-1β (Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, GER) or tumor necrosis factor α (TNF α) (Immuno Tools, Friesoythe, GER) for further 24 h.

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.
