A chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay was carried out using the ChiP-IT Express Enzymatic Magnetic Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Kit or the Re-ChIP-IT kit (Active Motif, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Approximately 300 mg of liver tissue was minced, homogenized, and fixed with 1% formaldehyde for the in vivo ChIP assay. The following ChIP primer sets were used for the ChIP assay: human AHR ChIP primer set I (−283 to 90, forward): 5′-TTA GCT GAC CCA CCG TCT CT-3′, (−283 to −90, reverse): 5′-TCC ATT CCG TCT TCC TTG AG-3′; human AHR ChIP primer set II (−1969 to −1779, forward): 5′-TTA GCT GAC CCA CCG TCT CT-3′, (−1969 to −1779, reverse): 5′-TTG GCT ATT TGG TGC AGT CA-3′; Mouse AHR ChIP primer set (−138 to +141, forward): 5′-AGA ACC TCG GAC TGC AAG AA-3′, (−138∼ +141, reverse): 5′-AGT CCG TCC ACC AGT TCG T-3′. For ChIP assays, NR2E3 antibody from Santa Cruz Biotech (Cat#: sc-292264) or Aviva Systems Biology (Cat#: ARP39069) was employed. All the ChIP-PCR reactions were performed using a 7300HT Real-Time PCR System with a 96-well block module (Applied Biosystems). The cycling conditions were 56 °C for 30 min and 95 °C for 10 min, followed by 50 cycles of 95 °C for 25 s and 60 °C for 60 s.

Three SNPs were analyzed using TaqMan® Assays purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific: rs6537958 (Assay ID: C_29220561_10), rs6537959 (Assay ID: C_29220562_20) and rs11103565 (Assay ID: C_31552275_10). For all three SNPs, the PCR mixture consisted of 10 µl of 2 × TaqMan™ Genotyping Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific), 1 µl of appropriate 20X TaqMan® Assay, and 10 ng of genomic DNA. The PCR mixture was filled up with a distilled, DNase and RNase free water (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) to the final volume of 20 µl. The real-time PCR was performed using the 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems) with 96-Well Block Module using standard mode thermal cycling setting under the following conditions: an initial denaturation step at 95°C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles of denaturation (95°C, 15 s), single annealing and extension step (60°C for 1 minute). Fluorescence signal detection for both dyes was performed after each cycle. For each plate, a no template control (NTC) was included. Allelic discrimination analysis was performed using a SDS 2.3 software (Applied Biosystems).

Cell cultures (OD750 = 0.40) corresponding to 2.2 × 106 cells ml−1 for IL, 5.5 × 106 cells ml−1 for A250R and 6.4 × 106 cells ml−1 for S264K, were harvested and total RNA extracted as previously described66 (link). Each RNA sample was subjected to DNase treatment using a Turbo DNA-free kit (Ambion). Total RNA (80 ng) was reverse transcribed and amplified using the SYBR Green PCR Master Mix and MuLV Reverse Transcriptase Reagents, according to one-step RT-PCR manufacturer’s protocol (Applied Biosystems, Foster city, USA). qRT-PCRs were performed in the Applied Biosystems 7900HT Real Time System with a standard 96-Well Block Module, using Frosted Subskirted optical tubes and Seal Film (Applied Biosystems, Foster city, USA). The reactions were subjected to a heat dissociation protocol using the 7900HT System software for melting curve analysis and detection of non-specific amplifications. A negative control without template was run with each assay to assess the overall specificity. The relative abundance of each gene was determined by the 2−∆∆Ct method67 (link). RACK1 (receptor of activated protein kinase C1)68 (link) was used as the endogenous control and for determining relative abundance of transcripts. Each assay included triplicate reactions. Primers were designed using Primer Quest (Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville) (Table S5).

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.
