Mice were sacrificed at day 7 post irradiation and total RNA of the tumors isolated by TRIzol (Invitrogen) was reverse transcripted into cDNA by Omniscript reverse transcriptase kit (Qiagen, Düsseldorf, NRW, Germany). The quantitative PCR performed by the LightCycler® 480 SYBR Green I Master reagent (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) was analyzed by CFX Connect™ Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA). The mRNA expression of each gene was normalized for the housekeeping gene (β-actin) and the fold change of gene expression in each group was determined by the difference (ΔΔCt value) compared to the control group. The primers of genes are shown in Table 1.

Total RNA Isolation and qRT-PCR Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from mouse tissues using TriPure RNA isolation reagent (Roche) according to the product manual. To analyze N2 worms at day 11 of adulthood a total of approximately 3,000 worms per condition, divided into three biological replicates, was recovered in M9 buffer from NGM plates and lysed in the TriPure RNA reagent. Each experiment was repeated twice. Total RNA was transcribed to cDNA using the QuantiTect Reverse Transcription Kit (QIAGEN). Expression of selected genes was analyzed using the LightCycler480 system (Roche) and LightCycler 480 SYBR Green I Master reagent (Roche). For worms two housekeeping genes were used to normalize the expression data, actin (act-1) and peroxisomal membrane protein 3 (pmp-3); for mice, the β2-microglobulin (B2m) gene was used as housekeeping reference.

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.
