Cationic Protein, Eosinophil

Cationic Proteins and Eosinophils: Exploring the Intersection of Immune Regulation and Cellular Function.
Cationic proteins, such as those found in eosinophils, play a crucial role in the body's immune response and inflammatory processes.
These positively charged molecules interact with various cellular targets, modulating immune cell activation and effector functions.
Eosinophils, a specialized type of white blood cell, are a primary source of cationic proteins and are implicated in a range of physiological and pathological conditions, including allergic reactions, parasitic infections, and certain autoimmune disorders.
Understanding the intricate relationship between cationic proteins and eosinophils is essential for advancing research and developing effective therapies targeting these important components of the immune system.

m6A MeRIP is based on the previously described m6A-seq protocol [27 (link)] with several modifications: 30 μl of protein A magnetic beads (10002D; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and 30 μl of protein G magnetic beads (10004D; Thermo Fisher Scientific) were washed twice by IP buffer (150 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 0.1% IGEPAL CA-630 in nuclease-free H2O), resuspended in 500 μl of IP buffer, and tumbled with 5 μg anti-m6A antibody at 4 °C for at least 6 hours. Following 2 washes in IP buffer, the antibody–bead mixture was resuspended in 500 μl of the IP reaction mixture containing fragmented total RNA, 100 μl of 5× IP buffer, and 5 μl of RNasin Plus RNase Inhibitor (N2611; Promega, Madison, WI) and incubated for 2 hours at 4 °C.
In the low/high salt-washing method, the RNA reaction mixture was washed twice in 1,000 μl of IP buffer, twice in 1,000 μl of low-salt IP buffer (50 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 0.1% IGEPAL CA-630 in nuclease-free H2O), and twice in 1,000 μl of high-salt IP buffer (500 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl [pH 7.5], 0.1% IGEPAL CA-630 in nuclease-free H2O) for 10 minutes each at 4 °C. After extensive washing, the m6A-enriched fragmented RNA was eluted from the beads in 200 μl of RLT buffer supplied in RNeasy Mini Kit (74106; QIAGEN; Germany) for 2 minutes at room temperature. A magnetic separation rack was used to pull beads to the side of the tube. Supernatant was collected to a new tube, and 400 μl of 100% ethanol was added to it. The mixture was transferred to an RNeasy MiniElute spin column and centrifuged at >12,000 rpm at 4 °C for 1 minute. The spin column membrane was washed with 500 μl of RPE buffer once, then 500 μl of 80% ethanol once, and centrifuged at full speed for 5 minutes at 4 °C to remove the residual ethanol. The m6A-enriched RNA was eluted with 14 μl ultrapure H2O. For a second round of IP, eluted RNA was re-incubated with protein A/G magnetic beads coupled to anti-m6A antibody, followed by washes, elution from the protein A/G beads, and purification as above. In addition, it is the high salt that contributes to better S/N ratio (S7A Fig).
In the m6A competitive elution method, the m6A competitive elution buffer for each pulldown was prepared by mixing 45 μl of 5× IP buffer, 75 μl of 20 mM m6A (M2780; Sigma-Aldrich), 3.5 μl of RNasin Plus RNase Inhibitor, and 101.5 μl of ultrapure H2O. The immunoprecipitated m6A RNA with protein A/G magnetic beads was then washed 3 times in 1,000 μl of IP buffer for 10 minutes each at 4 °C and was resuspended in 100 μl of m6A competitive elution buffer with continuous shaking for 1 hour at 4 °C. The mixture was placed on a magnetic separation rack, and supernatant containing the eluted m6A RNA was collected to a new tube. Then, another 100 μl of m6A competitive elution buffer was added for one more elution. To purify the eluted RNA, 700 μl of RLT buffer and 1,400 μl of 100% ethanol were added to 200 μl of eluted supernatant collected and mixed thoroughly. The mixture was transferred to an RNeasy MiniElute spin column (QIAGEN) and centrifuged at >12,000 rpm at 4 °C for 1 minute. This step was repeated until all of the sample was loaded to the column. The spin column membrane was washed with 500 μl of RPE buffer once, then 500 μl of 80% ethanol once, and centrifuged at full speed for 5 minutes at 4 °C to remove the residual ethanol. The m6A-enriched RNA was eluted with 14 μl ultrapure H2O.
The MeRIP-seq data has been deposited in NCBI GEO database (GSE116002).

DNA was extracted in triplicate from each faecal sample using the five commercial kits (Table 1) according to their respective manufacturer's instructions, with slight modifications. Briefly, genomic DNA was extracted using two starting amounts of faecal material, 100 mg and 200 mg. Mechanical cell lysis (bead-beating) was carried out for all kits at 50 Hz for 5 min using the TissueLyser LT™ (Qiagen, FRITSCH GmbH, Idar-Oberstein, Germany), with the exception of QIAamp® DNA Stool Mini Kit (kit QA), seeing that a mechanical cell lysis step is not recommended by the manufacturer.

Kit QS provides the option of three elution volumes (µl).

Automated extraction using the QIAsymphony® Virus/Bacteria Midi Kit (kit QS) incorporated an “off-board lysis” step using 750 μl lysis buffer from ZR Fecal DNA MiniPrep™ kit (kit Z) combined with mechanical cell lysis. The lysate was centrifuged at 10 000 rpm for 1 min, and 300 μl of the resulting clarified supernatant was used for the DNA extraction on the QIAsymphony® SP instrument (Qiagen, Hombrechtikon, Switzerland) as recommended by the manufacturer.
In order to ensure complete flow-through of supernatant during step 4 for kit Z, an additional centrifugation step at 14 000 rpm for 1 min was added.
Homogenisation of faecal samples, in Buffer ASL, for kit QA was performed using the TissueLyser LT™ (Qiagen, FRITSCH GmbH, Idar-Oberstein, Germany) at 50 Hz for 1 min. The optional heating of the faecal lysate at 95 °C (in step 4) was used instead of 75 °C. When required, the alternate RNase treatment, as recommended by the manufacturer was used. Extracted DNA was treated with 3.0 μg of RNase A (Sigma-Aldrich, Carlsbad, United States of America). Because the manufacturer's protocol did not include a subsequent clean-up step, in order to remove the degraded RNA and enzyme from the treated DNA, the wash steps in the protocol were performed from step 11, excluding the incubation step at step 12.
Ultraclean® Fecal DNA Isolation Kit (kit U) and PowerSoil® DNA Isolation Kit (kit P) extractions included the alternate lysis step, as per manufacturer's recommendations, which replaced step 5 for kit P and step 6 for kit U.
All extracted DNA was eluted in 50 μl of distilled water (H2O), except the automated kit QS, where the minimum elution volume allowed by the supplier was set at 60 μl using Buffer AVE.
