Modulation of EDA2R/EDA-A2 signalling in Human Myoblasts
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Transfection of human myoblasts was performed using Lipofectamine or electroporation. Skeletal muscle myoblasts isolated from a human male donor were transfected using the Lipofectamine™ 2000 Transfection Reagent (Invitrogen, 11668019). Twenty-four hours before transfections, cells were plated to a density of 17,500 cells/cm² in a 6-well plate. The transfection was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol. For each well, 4 µg of plasmid DNA (EDA2R, Origene) and the appropriate amount of Lipofectamine™ 2000 were diluted in Opti-MEM™ I Reduced Serum Medium (Gibco, 31985070). After transfection, cells were incubated at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO₂ for 24 hours. For electroporation, skeletal muscle myoblasts isolated from a human male donor were transfected using the Amaxa™ Nucleofector Basic Kit for Primary Mammalian Smooth Muscle Cells (Lonza, VPI-1004). For each transfection condition, a total of 1 million cells were resuspended in the Nucleofector Solution provided with the kit. Then, 3 µg of plasmid DNA (EDA2R, Origene) was added to the cell suspension and subjected to nucleofection using the Amaxa Nucleofector Device with the A-033 program, as recommended by the manufacturer’s protocol. Following nucleofection, the cells were immediately transferred into pre-warmed complete growth medium and distributed into 3 wells of 9.6 cm² each. The cells were then incubated at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO₂ for 48 hours, until RNA extraction. For the ligand-based treatment, skeletal muscle myoblasts isolated from a human male donor were treated with EDA-A2 ligand (922-ED, R&D Systems) at the concentration of 250 ng/ml used in Bilgic et al., and incubated for an additional 48 hours, until RNA extraction.
