Micro(mi)RNAs are short, non-coding RNAs that mediate the RNA interference (RNAi) by post-transcriptional mechanisms. Specific miRNAs are recruited to the cytoplasmic RNA induced silencing complex (RISC). Argonaute2 (Ago2), an essential component of RISC, facilitates binding of miRNA to the target-site on mRNA, followed by cleaving the miRNA-mRNA duplex with its endonuclease activity. RNAi is mediated by a specific pool of miRNAs recruited to RISC, and thus is referred to as the functional pool. The cellular levels of many miRNAs are affected by the cytokine Transforming Growth Factor-β1 (TGF-β1). However, little is known about whether the TGF-β1 affects the functional pools of these miRNAs. The Ago2-miRNA-co-IP assay, discussed in this manuscript, is designed to examine effects of TGF-β1 on the recruitment of miRNAs to RISC and it helps to determine whether changes in the cellular miRNA levels correlate with changes in the RISC-associated, functional pools. The general principles of the assay are as follows. Cultured cells treated with TGF-β1 or vehicle control are lysed and the endogenous Ago2 is immunoprecipitated with immobilized anti-Ago2 antibody, and the active miRNAs complexed with Ago2 are isolated with a RISC immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay kit. The miRNAs are identified with quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) using miRNA-specific stem-looped primers during reverse transcription, followed by PCR using miRNA-specific forward and reverse primers, and TaqMan hydrolysis probes.
