Lipofectamine 2000

Manufactured by Bio-Rad

Lipofectamine 2000 is a cationic lipid-based transfection reagent used for the delivery of genetic material, such as DNA or RNA, into mammalian cells. It facilitates the uptake of nucleic acids by forming lipid-DNA or lipid-RNA complexes that can be efficiently internalized by cells.

For CNP, a single layer of MEFs, MSCs, DCs, or HEK- 293T cells (~200,000 cells) was spread on a 1 cm x 1 cm 3D CNP silicon chip surface for overnight cell incubation. Plasmids pre-loaded in PBS buffer were injected into individual cells via nanochannels (~500 nm diameter and 5 μm spacing) using a 200 V electric field for 5 pulses at 10 ms/pulse with a 0.1 second interval. Various electroporation conditions were tested for best choice. BEP (Neon Transfection System, Thermo Fisher Scientific), Gene Gun (PDS-1000/He™ System, Bio-Rad) and Lipofectamine 2000 transfections were conducted according to manufacturers’ instructions. Ascl1/Brn2/Myt1l plasmids at a weight ratio of 2/1/1 and a concentration of 100 ng/mL in PBS buffer, according to the protocol in literature,40 were pre-mixed for transfection. Cell transfection of PTEN, miR-128, CD47, CDX-CD47, CREKA-CD47 and CD63-GFP plasmids followed the same procedure.

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.
