Short hairpin rnas shrnas

Manufactured by GenePharma
Sourced in China

Short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) are a type of laboratory equipment used in molecular biology research. shRNAs are small, double-stranded RNA molecules designed to induce gene silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. They function by targeting specific messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules, leading to their degradation or translational repression, thereby reducing the expression of the corresponding gene.

Lipofectamine 3000 (Invitrogen, USA) was used as the reagent for cell transfection as the manufacturer’s instruction describes. Briefly, cultured cells were cultured to ~ 80% confluence. The short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting SPHK1, SIRT1 and FoxO3, miR-19a/b-3p mimics, miR-19a/b-3p inhibitor, and corresponding negative controls were obtained from GenePharma (Shanghai, China). Corresponding constructs above together with Lipofectamine 3000 (m/v 1:1) were directly added into the culture media for 48 h followed by harvest.

Human colon mucosal epithelial cells NCM460 and different human colorectal tumor cell lines (LoVo, HTC116, SW480, T84, SW620) were purchased from ATCC (Manassas, USA) and cultured in a 5% CO2/37 °C incubator. NCM460, HCT116, and T84 were maintained in McCoy’s 5A medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, USA), whereas LoVo, SW480, and SW620 cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Invitrogen) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Recombinant lentiviral vectors carrying FBXW11 or HIC1, and corresponding control vectors (named Control and mock, respectively) were designed and generated by GeneChem (Shanghai, China). Short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting FBXW11 (shFBXW11-1 and shFBXW11-2), SIRT1 (shSIRT1), and HIC1 (shHIC1), as well as corresponding scrambled controls (named Scramble and shRNA, respectively) were synthesized by GenePharma (Shanghai, China). Lipofectamine® 2000 Transfection Reagent (Invitrogen) was used to transfect colorectal tumor cell cells with designated lentiviral vectors and/or shRNAs. Transfection efficiency was evaluated by qRT-PCR and/or western blotting prior to further analyses.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) were designed and synthesized by GenePharma. The shRNA‐ctrl vector and shRNA‐lnc‐CYB561‐5 were transfected into H1299 and H292 cells using Lipofectamine 2000 transfection reagent (Invitrogen). Recombinant lentivirus (Bsg‐LV, Vector‐LV) were prepared by Genechem Co., Ltd. The titre of the concentrated virus suspension was 5 × 1011 Tu/L. Cells were infected with lentivirus for 48 h and then selected with 2 ng/ml puromycin for 2 weeks, with the medium refreshed every 3 days.

Stable Knockdown of HOTAIRM1, FUS, and E2F7

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting HOTAIRM1, FUS, and E2F7 were all provided by GenePharma (Shanghai, China). For cell transfection, serum-free medium (500 μl), plasmid (4 μg), and lipofectamine 3000 (10 μl, Invitrogen, CA, USA) were mixed and left at room temperature for 20 min to form the RNA/lipo mixture. Subsequently, the mixture was added to the serum-free medium cultured cells. After 6 h, the used medium was replaced with fresh complete medium, and the culture was continued for 48 h. For the construction of stable transfected cell lines, virus solution (100 μl) was added to complete medium (1 ml), and then polybrene with a concentration of 10 mg/ml (0.5 μl) was added and mix (final polybrene concentration is 5 μg/ml). When the cell density is about 80%, the used medium is discarded, virus infection mixture (0.25 ml) is added to each well of the 24-well plate. After 24 h of incubation, the virus infection mixture was discarded, and fresh complete medium was added to continue the culture for 24 h. Cells were passaged when the cells grew to 90% density. After the cells adhered, complete medium containing puromycin (2 μg/ml) was added to each well for selection.

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.
