After two days of co-culture, the flow was stopped, and the GMPS set-up was removed from the incubator. Via the seed port, PBS++ was used to wash the apical channel, and 300 μL RNA lysis buffer (cat no. T2010, New England Biolabs Inc.) was applied to the channel and vigorously pipetted. RNA was purified following the manufacturer’s protocol (cat no. T2010, New England Biolabs Inc.). Oligo(dT)12–18 (cat no. 18418012, Thermo Fisher) was used to reverse transcribe Caco-2 RNA (C1000 Touch Thermal Cycler, BioRad). The resulting cDNA was cleaned and concentrated (cat no. D40144, Zymo Research) and 1 μL was used for qPCR. An SYBR Green-based qPCR master mix (cat no. M3003, New England Biolabs Inc.) and primers (Table S3.) were used to amplify genes of interest (C1000 Thermal Cycler with CFX96 Real-Time System, BioRad). Primers were made with NCBI Primer Blast.75 The target gene, GADD45a, was normalized to GAPDH. Relative expression differences were calculated using the delta-delta Ct method.

Bacteria were grown overnight at 20°C in KB broth containing 50 μg/mL rifampicin to an OD600 = ~1.0. Cells were centrifuged for 10 min at 21,000 x g and the resulting bacterial pellets were frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C prior to use. RNA was extracted from the bacterial pellets and 500 ng converted into cDNA in 25 μL reactions as described previously [9 (link)]. Quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) reactions were performed in 10 μL volumes using 5 μL of SsoAdvanced Universal SYBR Green Supermix (Bio-Rad), 4 μL of a mix containing 0.5 μM of each transcript-specific primer (S2 Table), and 1 μL of cDNA. SYBR Green fluorescence from each qRT-PCR reaction was monitored using the C1000 Thermal Cycler with CFX96 Real-Time System (Bio-Rad). Relative abundance of transcripts was calculated relative to gyrA using the formula Transcript Abundance = PCR efficiency-(Ct[gene]-Ct[gyrA]) [48 (link)]. PCR efficiency values were calculated for each qRT-PCR reaction using LinRegPCR [49 ].

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.
