Mir 124 inhibitor

Manufactured by RiboBio
Sourced in China

The MiR-124 inhibitor is a laboratory reagent designed to inhibit the expression of the miR-124 microRNA. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that play a crucial role in gene regulation. The MiR-124 inhibitor can be used in research studies to investigate the functions and effects of the miR-124 microRNA in biological systems.

Manipulating circRNA_100782 and miR-124 in BxPC3 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
INTERFERin (Polyplus transfection, Illkirch, France) was used for the transfection experiments with miRNA mimics or siRNAs according to the manufacturer’s instructions. miR-124 mimic, miR-124 inhibitor, negative control miRNA and siRNAs targeting circRNA_100782, STAT3 and siRNA negative control were obtained from RiboBio (Guangzhou, China). The knockdown efficiency of circRNA_100782 was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Western blot was used to measure the efficiency of si-STAT3. To identify the role of IL6 in si-circRNA_100782 and miR-124-induced cell suppression, BxPC3 cells were treated with recombinant human IL6 cytokine (PeproTech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA) after transfection with si-circRNA_100782 and miR-124 according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

miR-124 Regulates TGFβ1 and DNMT1 in Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cells in the logarithmic phase of growth were detached with trypsin and seeded in a six-well plate, at a density of 1 × 105 cells per well. After 24 h of conventional culture, the cells were transfected with 250 μl of Lipo3000 transfection reagent (Invitrogen) at room temperature for 0 to 15 min, and the solution was changed after 16 h. The RNA content was extracted after 48 h, followed by protein extraction after 72 h. The details of experimental grouping were described in the Results. mimic-negative control (NC), miR-124 mimic, inhibitor NC, miR-124 inhibitor, sh-NC, sh-TGFβ1, oe-NC, oe-TGFβ1, sh-DNMT1, and oe-DNMT1 were all purchased from Ribobio (Guangzhou, China).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For luciferase activity analysis, human 293-T cells were cultured in 24-well plates and transfected with 0.5 μg of either wide-type or mutant psiCHECK™2 Vector containing both firefly luciferase and renilla luciferase, together with miR-NC, miR-124 mimic, inhibitor-NC and miR-124 inhibitor (RiboBio, Guangzhou, China). Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 3000 reagent (Invitrogen Life Technologies). The cell lysates were analyzed for luciferase activity 20 h post-transfection by the Dual Luciferase Reporter Assay (Promega) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

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.
