Genotyping Cardiovascular Disease SNPs

Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood using standard methods (DNA Blood Mini kit, QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany). All polymorphisms were genotyped using specific TaqMan assays on a Prism 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR system following the supplier’s instructions (ThermoFisher Scientific, Foster City, CA, USA).
The polymorphic sites were selected by a prior review of the NCBI data base, and included polymorphisms with a minor allele frequency (MAF) >5%, previously demonstrated to be associated with cardiovascular diseases and with vascular calcification.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Chemokine transcription was assessed using custom-made TaqMan low-density array (TLDA) microfluidic cards (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) as described previously [20 (link)]. Briefly, 100 μl of reaction mix, containing a 1:1 mixture of cDNA (from ~ 1 μg total RNA) in RNase-free water and 2x TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA), was loaded onto cards containing the primers and probesets for 32 genes. Cards were centrifuged to distribute the reaction mixture throughout the fluidic system and run on a Prism 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). Data were analysed using SDS2.2 software and RQ Manager. Relative gene expression was first normalised to the expression of housekeeping gene Tbp, which encodes TATA-binding protein, and then normalised to that of a calibrator selected arbitrarily from the vehicle control group. Fold change of gene expression in LPS-challenged mice compared to vehicle controls was calculated using the ΔΔCT method.

Validation of SVM Classifiers via QRTPCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A subset of nine transcripts featured in SVM classifiers were selected for validation with quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (QRTPCR). First, total RNA was quantitatively converted with High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kits (Applied Biosystems, San Diego City, CA) to generate single-stranded cDNA (for a 20μL reaction). Aliquots of 20ng of cDNA were analyzed via QRTPCR using the Prism 7900 HT Fast Real-Time PCR system (Applied Biosystems). Statistical analysis was performed using the comparative ΔCT method. All reactions were run in duplicate and normalized against gyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1). For one transcript (GSTM1), QRTPCR analysis was repeated with 75ng cDNA in order to compensate for low signal. The fold change values were compared using independent samples t-tests (p<0.05).

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.
