Knockdown of lncRNA HOTAIR in T24 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T24 cells were plated in 6-well plates at a concentration of 6x104 cells/well, and incubated overnight. Incubation and transfection of siRNA using DharmaFECT 1 reagent (GE Life Sciences, Dharmacon) was performed as per the manufactures protocol. Specifically, for each well, 2.5μL of 5μM siRNA and 1.37μL of DharmaFECT 1 reagent (GE Life Sciences Dharmacon) were used. The siRNA used were previously published: siHOTAIR (siRNA-1 UAACAAGACCAGAGAGCUGUU; siRNA-2 CCACAUGAACGCCCAGAGAUU); and control siGFP (CUACAACAGCCACAACGUCdTdT.) was obtained from GE Life Sciences Dharmacon [51 (link)].

SOX2 Knockdown Impacts Chemotherapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine the effect of SOX2 down-regulation on chemotherapy response, cell lines were transfected with SOX2 siRNA SMARTpool (GE Healthcare, Cat. Nr: L-011778-00-0005) using reverse transfection with DharmaFECT reagent 1 (GE Healthcare, Cat. Nr: T-2001-02). Concentrations of siRNA and transfection reagent for both cell lines were determined based on the manufacturer’s recommendation for OVCAR3 cells. Growth inhibition following treatment was assessed in a 96-well format. The cells were treated with a range of carboplatin or paclitaxel doses (Selleckchem, Cat. Nr: S1215 & S1150) and proliferation was assessed after 7 days using the SRB assay (Sigma Aldrich, Cat. Nr: S1402). Confirmation of SOX2 knock-down on the protein level was performed by Western blotting, as described earlier.

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.
