Evenly draw least 3 cross lines with marker pen about every 1cm at the back of the 6-well plate. One day before transfection, equal numbers of NPC cells (6X10⁶) were seeded into 6-well plates. Cells were then transfected with 50nM siMYH10 using riboFECT (Ribobio, Guangzhou, China). At around 24h post-transfection, a wound was made perpendicular to the draw lines on cell layer with the use of a sterile plastic 200ul micropipette tip. After wounding, cells were cultured with 2% FBS medium. At different time points, cells that migrated into the wounded area or cells with extended protrusion from the border of wound were photographed under an inverted microscope.

Human CD44v10 was constructed by PCR-based amplification and cloned into the Ubi-MCS-3FLAG-SV40-Cherry-IRES-puromycin vector system (Genechem Company). Cells were infected with concentrated lentivirus according to the manufacturer’s instructions and treated with puromycin (2 μg/ml; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) for 3 weeks to generate stable CD44v10-knockdown or CD44v10-overexpression cells. The knockdown efficiencies and stable overexpression were verified by Western blotting assay.

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.
