siRNA transfection was performed with siRNA reagent system (Santa Cruz, sc-45064) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, cells were replated in six-well plates to 40% confluence in antibiotic-free 10% FBS-containing medium. For each transfection, 6 μl of WT1 siRNA (Santa Cruz, sc-36846), TAZ siRNA (Thermo Fisher, 122501), and unconjugated control siRNA-A (Santa Cruz, sc-37007) in 100 μl of transfection medium (Santa Cruz, sc-36868) were mixed with 6 μl of transfection reagent (sc-29528) in another 100 μl of transfection medium. The mixtures were incubated for 30 min at room temperature. Each well was washed with 2 ml of transfection medium once and then filled with a prepared reagent mixture plus 0.8 ml of transfection medium. After incubation overnight, an additional 1 ml of medium supplemented with 20% FBS with 2% antibiotics was added to each well for another 24 h. The transfection mixture was removed and replaced with normal growth medium on the following day. All experimental measurements were performed 24 h following replacement of the medium. The sequence information of siRNAs will be available upon request.

The miR-138 mimics and miRNA-negative control (NC) mimics were obtained from Qiagen GmbH. U87 and U251 cells were transfected with miR-138 mimics or miRNA-NC by Lipofectamine™ 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). The target sequences of miR-138 mimics were as previously described (19 (link)). The scrambled sequence (5′-UUCUCCGAACGUGUCACGUTT-3′) was used to create non-targeting miR-NC and GFP-siRNA. CREB1 siRNA (sc-35111) and siRNA Reagent System (sc-45064) were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc. and all transfections were conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. CREB1 overexpression vectors were purchased from GenePharma and successfully transfected into the corresponding cells according to the manufacturer's instructions in the presence of Lipofectamine™ 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). A full-length human CREB1 complementary DNA containing the entire coding sequence tagged with GFP or GFP alone (Lenti-GFP) was cloned into the lentiviral vector pLenti6/V5-DEST (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) to create the complete functional overexpression vector Lenti-CREB1. The efficacy of the transfection was tested by using western blotting.

Silencing TRPM7 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A small interfering RNA (siRNA) was generated against TRPM7. siRNA for knocking down TRPM7 was synthesized by Qiagen (USA). The DNA target sequence of the annealed double strand siRNA that we used was: 5′-CCT GTA AGA TCT ATC GTT CAA-3′. siRNA, with a nonsilencing oligonucleotide sequence (nonsilencing siRNA) that does not recognize any known homology to mammalian genes, was also generated as a negative control.
Cells (VSMCs) were seeded at a density of 2×105 cells/well in 6-well plates and grown in DMEM containing 15% FBS and antibiotics. One day after seeding, cells were transfected with siRNA using siRNA Reagent System (Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, siRNA (40 pmol) was mixed with transfection medium (100 µL) to which transfection reagent (6 µL) plus transfection medium (100 µL) was added. After mixing (45 minutes), the formulation was added dropwise onto the cells. Control cells were exposed to transfectant in the absence of siRNA. 18 hours after transfection, media was changed to DMEM containing 15% FBS and antibiotics. Cells were lysed after 24 hours, and gene silencing was monitored at the mRNA level by RT-PCR.

Specific siRNA targeting AhR (Santa Cruz) was used to inhibit gene expression in human PBMC. After one day of cell culture in serum free media, the following processes for transfection were performed using a siRNA reagent system (Santa Cruz). Mixed siRNA for AhR and transfection reagent were reacted for 45 minutes at room temperature, diluted in transfection media, and applied to cells without culture media. After five hours in a CO2 incubator at 37℃, samples were cultured for one day in media containing FBS and a twofold greater quantity of antibiotics than previously added. Thereafter, culture media was removed, replenished with new media, and cultured for an additional day.

Human monocyte-derived macrophages were treated with P17 (200 µg/ml) for 24 h and were allowed to interact for 40 min at 37°C with C. albicans blastospores (at a ratio of 0.3 yeast per macrophage) as previously described (36 (link), 40 (link)). Unbound yeasts were removed by four washes with medium. h-MDMs were then incubated at 37°C for 4 h. After incubation, the medium was removed and cells were lysed.

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.
