Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The PRV load of piglets was monitored by the real-time fluorescence quantification PCR (FQ-PCR) of nasal swab and brain tissue. The total DNA was isolated from the nasal swabs and brains tissue by TIANamp Swab DNA Kit (Tiangen Biotech, Beijing, China) and Genomic DNA Extraction Kit (TaKaRa, Tokyo, Japan), respectively. The upstream and downstream primers were 5′- ACAAGTTCAAGGCCC ACATCTAC -3′ and 5′- GTCYGTGAAGCGGTTCGTG AT -3′, respectively, which were used to amplify a 95-bp fragment of the glycoprotein B gene of PRV (GenBank accession no. KJ526438). A 17-bp probe (5′- ACGTCATCGTCACGACC -3′) complementary to an internal region between two primers was selected and labelled with carboxyfluorescein at the 5′ end and with carboxytetramethylrhodamine at the -3′ end. The FQ-PCR was analyzed by using SsoAdvancedTM Universal Probes Supermix (BIO-RAD, Hercules, CA, USA) with a Bio-Rad CFX96TM Manager software system according the method described in our previous study [21 (link)].

DNA Extraction and Genotyping of Blood Samples

Blood samples were collected from all participants and stored at −80 °C before DNA extraction. Genomic DNA was extracted from venous blood leukocytes using a genomic DNA extraction and purification kit (TIANamp Swab DNA Kit; Tiangen Biotech, Beijing, China). Study participants were genotyped for the SNPs using Sequenom MassARRAY technology (Bioyong Technologies, Beijing, China). All DNA samples passing initial quality checks were plated at a concentration of ≥5 ng/μl for processing on the platform. Quality measures taken into account for genotyped SNPs to be excluded from the subsequent analysis were minor allele frequency (MAF) <0.05, genotyping success <80%, and failed Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) test in control samples (p<0.001). Quality control criteria for each SNP were implemented in our data set.

Genomic DNA was extracted from exfoliated buccal cells using the TIA Namp Swab DNA Kit (TIANGEN Biotech, Beijing, China) according to standard procedures. Polymerase chain reactions (PCRs) were performed in a 25-μl reaction volume containing 1 μl DNA, 12.5 μl GoTaq Green Master Mix (Promega Company, Madison, WI, USA), 1 μl each of two primers (200 ng/l), and 9.5 μl ddH2O. The amplification protocol included cycling at 94°C for 3 min, followed by 35 cycles at 95°C for 30 s, 58°C for 30 s and 72°C for 45 s in a Gene Amp 2400 PCR system (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA). PCR products were separated by electrophoresis on a 1.8% agarose gel and stained with Du Red (Biosharp, China), then visualized under ultraviolet (UV) trans-illumination. Sizes were determined by comparison with a 50-bp DNA sequencing ladder.

The human study was reviewed and approved by the human ethics committee of Wuxi Hospital of Integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. The study population included 189 healthy subjects with Chinese Han ancestry. All subjects provided written informed consent to be included in the study. Genotyping of SNP rs8005161 was performed by DNA sequencing. Briefly, genomic DNA was extracted from buccal swab by TIANamp Swab DNA kit (TIANGEN, Beijing, China). The target DNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) by a PTC-200 PCR instrument (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) using the following cycling conditions: 5 minutes at 96°C, 10 cycles of 96°C for 20s, 62–52°C touchdown for 20s, 72°C for 30s, 35 cycles of 96°C for 20s, 52°C for 20s, 72°C for 30s, and 5 mins at 72°C. The amplified DNA were sequenced by an ABI3730XL DNA analyser (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) using the forward primer. The primers used for PCR and sequencing are, Forward: TAAAGGAGGCAAAATAAT, Reverse: CTTCTTTGTAGTGACGCA. 8 subjects carrying rs8005161-CC and 6 subjects carrying rs8005161-CT provided blood samples for the cytokine detection from T cells.

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.
