Poly 1 c

Manufactured by Apexbio
Sourced in United States

Poly (I:C) is a synthetic double-stranded RNA analog that mimics the structure of viral RNA. It is commonly used as a research tool to induce an innate immune response in cells and tissues, due to its ability to activate pattern recognition receptors such as TLR3 and RIG-I. The core function of Poly (I:C) is to serve as a molecular tool for studying immune signaling pathways and cellular responses to viral infection.

Human HT-29, HCT116, SW480, SW620 and LOVO CRC cell lines were obtained from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Shanghai, China). HT-29 and LOVO cells were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 medium (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA), and the HCT116, SW480 and SW620 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium (DMEM, Hyclone, Logan, UT) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Biological Industries, Beit Haemel, Israel) and 1% antibiotics penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA). The cells were cultured at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 humidified atmosphere. Rapamycin (RAPA, Apexbio, Houston, TX), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU, Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and amlexanox (Abcam, Cambridge, England) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, Sigma Aldrich). Poly (I:C) (Apexbio) was dissolved in H2O.

Immune and Epithelial Gene Expression in SMI Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Expression of two gene sets, immune-related genes and epithelial-related genes, was studied in control SMI and SMI exposed to either LPS or poly (I:C). The immune-related genes were TNF-β (tumor necrosis factor β), NF-κB (nuclear factor-κB), and IL-1β (interleukin-1β). The epithelial-related genes were itga6 (integrin α6), itgb4, gja1 (gap junction α1, also named connexin 43), and claudin1. SMI cells from passage 55 were seeded into 12-well plates with 1 × 105 cells/well. After the cell growth and confluency reached 80%, they were stimulated with 20 μg/mL LPS (lipopolysaccharide) (Solarbio) or 20 μg/mL poly (I:C) (polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid) (APExBIO, Houston, TX). The control group was treated with an equal volume of PBS. Three replicates were set for each treatment condition. Cells were collected at 2, 12, and 24 h after stimulation for RNA extraction.

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.
