The human liver cell line LO2 and hepatocellular cell lines SNU398, SNU449, MHCC97H, Hep3B, PLC/PRF/5, and HepG2 were purchased from the ATCC (Manassas, VA, United States). PLC/PRF/5, Hep3B, MHCC97H, and HepG2 cell lines were cultured in complete Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (Gibco, United States), and SNU398 and SNU449 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 medium (Gibco, United States); all cells were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2 in the air.
HCC cell lines (Hep3B, HepG2, and SNU398) were transfected with siRNAs targeting ALG3 or control siRNA (HIPPOBIO, China) using Lipofectamine 2000 Reagent (Invitrogen, United States). The efficiency of the knockdown was confirmed using qRT-PCR analysis. The siRNA used were as follows: si-NC: 5′-UUC​UUC​GAA​GGU​GUC​ACG​UTT-3′, ALG3 siRNA#1: 5′-GGU​UUC​GUG​UAC​AUC​UUU​AUG-3′, and ALG3 siRNA#2: 5′-GGA​CCU​GAG​UCU​ACC​CUC​AGG-3’.

Through lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen)-mediated transient transfections, SNU-398 cells were transfected with 40 nM siRNA or miRNA. To perform NC experiments, cells were transfected with either NC siRNA or NC miRNA. Incubation with transfection mixture was performed for 6h, followed by cell culture in fresh medium for further 48h. To perform Control (C) experiments, untransfected cells were cultivated in fresh medium for 54h.
RNA isolation and process SNU-398 cells and paired tissue samples were subjected to RNA isolations, which were performed using RNAzol (Invitrogen). Incubation with DNase I (Invitrogen) was performed for 100 min at 37°C to achieve complete genomic DNA removal. Ratios of OD260/280 were determined to check RNA purity.

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.
