Lentiviral RIN1 Knockdown and EGFR Inhibition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flag‐tagged Rab25 (LPP‐T4697‐Lv121‐200), Flag‐tagged RIN1 (LPP‐T2755‐Lv121‐200) and their corresponding control vectors were purchased from GeneCopoeia (Rockville, MD, USA). Lentiviral shRNA targeting RIN1 (LV3‐p GLV‐h1‐GFP‐puro) and control empty vector were synthesized at Genepharma (Shanghai, China). The target sequence of RIN1 used to construct a Lentiviral shRNA was 5′‐ ACGTTCCTCGTGCGGAAATCT‐3′. Vectors were packaged in 293T cells using ViraPower Mix (GeneCopoeia). After culturing for 48 h, lentiviral particles in the supernatant were harvested and filtered by centrifugation at 500× g for 10 min, and then transfected into ccRCC cells. The cells were cultured under puromycin (2 μg/mL) selection for 2 weeks, at which point real‐time PCR was used to determine the level of RIN1. The siRab25 (5′‐GGAGCUCUAUGACCAUGCU‐3′) oligonucleotides were synthesized at Genepharma. Transfection of oligonucleotides was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. EGFR inhibitor AG1478 was purchased from Abcam (Shanghai, China).

Chicken Cecal Explant Culture

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Methods for chicken ceca explant cultures were adapted from an ex vivo colon explant model for mice13 and are summarized in Supplementary Fig. 1. Briefly, 0.1 g tissue pieces from the ceca of 21-day-old chickens were incubated in antibiotic-treated Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium (DMEM) for 30 min at 39.5 °C (5% CO2). Explant tissues were then washed with antibiotic-free DMEM to remove residual antibiotics, individually transferred to 24-well plates, and incubated in DMEM with 0 or 1 µM reserpine for six hours at 39.5 °C (5% CO2). Alternatively, to confirm reserpine-mediated signaling pathways, tissues were incubated with norepinephrine (1.32 mg/ml or 1.32 µg/ml), beta-adrenergic receptor inhibitors ICI-118551 (β2; 1 µM; MedChemExpress, LLC) or L-748337 (β3; 1 µM; R&D Systems), U0126 (MEK1/2 inhibitor; 20 µM; Invivogen), human recombinant EGF (200 ng/ml; Biotang Inc), AG-1478 (EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor; 1 µM; BioVision), or rapamycin (mTOR pathway inhibitor; 10 ng/ml or 1000 ng/ml).

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.
