Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products Products >D-451 Transfection Reagent (Mouse Fibroblast Cells) D-451 Transfection Protocol • Plate 10,000 - 15,000 D-451 cells per well in 0.5 ml of complete growth medium 12–24 hours prior to transfection • Wash with 1xPBS and add 0.5 ml of fresh growth medium • Prepare transfection complexes by mixing 40 µl of serum free medium, 5.5 µl of transfection reagent, and • 750 ng DNA (or mRNA), or • 30 nM - 50 nM of siRNA (or microRNA) *Referred to a final volume including growth medium • Incubate transfection complexes at RT for 15 - 30 minutes • Optional: Add 2 µl of Complex Condenser. This reagent reduces the size of transfection complex, therefore increasing transfection efficiency; however, it may increase cell toxicity • Add prepared transfection complexes to 0.5 ml of complete growth medium with D-451 cells (from step 2) • Incubate cells at 37ºC in a humidified CO2 incubator • Assay for phenotype or target gene expression 48 - 72 hours after transfection • Optional: Transfection efficiency can be increased by addition of Transfection Enhancer reagent. Add 2 µl of Transfection Enhancer reagent 12-24 hours after transfection • If the viability of D-451 cells being transfected is affected at 16 - 24 hours post-transfection, the level of cytotoxicity can be decreased by changing the growth medium and eliminating redundant exposure of cells to transfectant Altogen Biosystems 848 Rainbow Blvd #823  Las Vegas  NV  89107  USA Telephone 702 349 6103  Fax 702 989-0841  email  techserv@altogen.com

Leading Developer and Manufacturer of In Vivo and DNA Transfection Kits, Transfection Reagents and Electroporation Delivery Products Products >D-451 Transfection Reagent (Mouse Fibroblast Cells) Data Figure 1. GAPD mRNA levels were quantified using real-time RT-PCR in the D-451 cells transfected with siRNAs targeting GAPD or non-silencing siRNA. Forty-eight hours post-transfection, the cells were harvested and analyzed by real-time RT-PCR for GAPD mRNA expression levels. Data were normalized against the 18S rRNA signal. Control samples were either mock-transfected or untreated. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are means ± SD (n=5)

Protein expression of GAPDH in D-451 cells. DNA plasmid expressing GAPDH or siRNA targeting GAPDH were transfected into D-451 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
