UACC1273 melanoma cells were transfected with indicated siRNAs (10pM) or
scramble (Scr) siRNA (10pM) with
Lipofectamine RNAiMAX Reagent (Invitrogen) according to
the manufacturer’s protocol. Transfection efficiency was assessed by measuring the
amounts of the proteins of interest. The siRNAs are listed below: Scramble siRNA (Scr,
Silencer® Select Negative Control No. 1 siRNA, Catalog number: 4390843, Ambion);
STAT1 siRNA S1-1, sense, 5′-CGGUUGAACCCUACACGAATT-3′, ID:s278, Ambion;
STAT1 siRNA S1-2, sense, 5′-CCUACGAACAUGACCCUAUTT -3′, ID:s277, Ambion;
STAT3 siRNA S3-1, sense, 5′- GCACCUUCCUGCUAAGAUUtt-3′, ID:s745, Ambion;
STAT3 siRNA S3-2, sense, 5′-GCCUCAAGAUUGACCUAGATT -3′, ID:s743, Ambion;
IRF1 siRNA IRF1-1, sense, 5′-GCAGAUUAAUUCCAACCAATT -3′, ID:s7502, Ambion;
IRF1 siRNA IRF1-2, sense, 5′- CCUCUGAAGCUACAACAGATT-3′, ID:s7501, Ambion.
All siRNAs were purchased from Thermo Scientific.
