Microarray Analysis of Tumor Transcriptomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated and purified from cells using Isol-RNA Lysis Reagent (Fisher.) Total RNA from tumors was isolated and purified from frozen specimens using Isol-RNA Lysis Reagent and Qiagen RNAeasy extraction kit with DNAase I on column treatment. Labeled RNA was hybridized to the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 and 2.0 ST Array. Affymetrix CEL files for all samples were processed using the RMA method as implemented in the “oligo” R package version 1.26.6. Probe annotations were provided by the “mogene10sttranscriptcluster.db” and “mogene20sttranscriptcluster.db” R package version 8.0.1 and 2.13.0, respectively. Since different array types and different batches were used, each expression set was z-score transformed27 (link) and median centered. Multiple probes for the same gene were averaged and only genes common to the 1.0 and 2.0 ST arrays were kept. Batch effects were adjusted using the ComBat method as implemented in the “sva” R package version 3.8.0. The microarray data has been deposited at the GEO (GSE65503) and processed data provided as SI Table 2. Gene expression data for primary melanoma samples were downloaded from the GEO (GSE22155). For this data set, the post-processed data and provided annotations were used.

Measuring PGC-1α and PPARα Gene Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The expression of PGC-1α and PPARα genes was measured using RNA obtained from cell extracts (n = 7) with an RNAeasy extraction kit (Qiagen). An amount of 500 ng of RNA was reverse-transcribed to cDNA using a high-capacity cDNA reverse transcription kit (Applied Biosystems) in a thermal cycler at: 25 °C for 10 min, 37 °C for 120 min, and 85 °C for 5 min. The cDNA was then transcribed to mRNA in a real-time PCR reaction according to the TaqMan gene expression assays protocol (Applied Biosystems) and was assayed with Taqman probes Mm00440939_m1, Mm00482488_m1, and Mm00607939_s1, which were used to detect PPARα, PGC-1α, and β-actin, respectively. Results are presented in relative mRNA units standardised to β-actin.
Phospho-p38 MAPK (Thr180/Tyr182) was assayed by a PathScan® Sandwich ELISA Kit #7946 according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Total RNA was extracted from hepatic tissue using an RNAeasy extraction kit from QIAGEN®30 with a DNAse cleaning step according to the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA quality was measured using Nanodrop, Qubit 2.0 fluorometer and Bioanalyzer 2100 instruments.
Fifteen libraries (one per individual) were constructed from 1.0 µl of total RNA using the KAPA Stranded RNA-Seq kit with RiboErase from KapaBiosystems®. Ribosomal RNA was removed by depletion by DNA primer hybridization followed by treatment with RNAse and DNAse according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The fragmentation cycle was adjusted to 10 cycles of amplification at 94 °C for 5 minutes to obtain fragments between 100 and 2100 bp in length. Each library was enriched with Illumina® TruSeq Index Adapters (250 nM) for multiplex sequencing.
Library quality was evaluated using a Qubit 2.0 fluorometer and an Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100; good quality libraries were paired-end (PE) sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq. 4000 at the Center for Genomics Services of the University of California, Berkeley.

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.
