RNA of PMA-induced THP-1 cells treated with NC or ferroptosis-induced MDA-MB-231 cell derived-exosomes was extracted using the RNeasy min kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). cDNA was synthesized by using the RT2 First Strand kit (Qiagen). Afterwards, the PCR reaction was performed as follows: initial denaturation at 95 °C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles of 95 °C for 15s and 60 °C for 1min. All samples were analyzed using the 2-ΔΔCt method with GAPDH as an internal control for normalization. The protein–protein network was constructed using Cytoscape V3.6.0.

Cells from one well of a six-well plate were washed with PBS and incubated with 500 μL lysis buffer [50 mM Tris⋅HCl (pH7.5), 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), 150 mM NaCl, and 1% Nonidet P-40 with Protease inhibitor mixture] in 37 °C for 10 min. The lysates were centrifuged for 2 min at 14,000 rpm to remove the cell debris and nuclei. The supernatant was transferred to a new centrifuge tube and then incubated with 6 U micrococcal nuclease (New England Biolabs) and 30 μL of 100 mM CaCl2 for 15 min at 37 °C for to remove unprotected free nucleic acids. The encapsidated pgRNA was extracted by the RNeasy min kit (Qiagen). The extracted encapsidated pgRNA was analyzed with RT-qPCR and Northern blot assay.

RNA Isolation and qPCR Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA was isolated from frozen tissue using the Trizol/Chloroform method. Briefly, the tissue was homogenized with a TissueLyser (Qiagen, Boston, MA) with Trizol buffer, transferred to a chloroform containing tube and centrifuged. The supernatant was mixed with alcohol and loaded onto a Qiagen RNA processing column and the Qiagen RNA isolation protocol was followed from the Qiagen RNeasy Min-Kit (Qiagen, Boston, MA). RNA quality and concentration was checked using a NanoDrop 2000c (ThermoScientific, Wilmington, DE), then a known amount of RNA was reverse transcribed to generate cDNA using the iScript Supermix kit (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). The cDNA was diluted to an appropriate concentration and qPCR was performed as previously described [6 (link)]. Briefly, the cDNA was mixed with SYBR Green Master Mix (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA), and forward and reverse primer sequences. The resulting mix was run through a CFX96 (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) Three Step Amplification protocol and each cycle was repeated forty times. The Ct values of an internal control, GAPDH, were then used against the target Ct values and analyzed with the Livak 2ˆ(−ΔΔCt) method. QPCR results used an n=6 for each experimental group.

Neuronal RNA Isolation and Enrichment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After being cultured in vitro for 6 days, neuronal cells were silenced with 1 μM tetrodotoxin (TTX; Fisher, Clarion County, PA, USA) and 100 μM DL-2-amino-5-phosphopentanoic acid (DL-AP5; Fisher) overnight. The next morning, neuronal cells were depolarized with 55 mM KCl for 0 h, 2 h, and 6 h. At the end time point, the neuronal cells were harvested and lysed with TRIzol reagent. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent combined with the RNeasy min kit (QIAGEN, Germantown, MD, USA) with DNase I on-column digestion. To enrich poly(A)-containing mRNAs, two rounds of poly(A) selection were performed using oligo(dT) beads (Thermo Fisher) following the manufacturer’s instructions.

RNA samples were prepared by RNeasy min kit (Qiagen); a mixture of three biological RNA replicates was used to represent each condition (parental, senescent, revertant). RNA-seq analysis, including rRNA depletion, library preparation, multiplexing and cluster generation, sequencing on Illumina HiSeq2500, and differential gene expression analysis, was performed by Genewiz (South Plainfield, NJ, USA). Gene function analysis was performed using DAVID (Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery, https://david.ncifcrf.gov/) and PANTHER (Protein Analysis THrough Evolutionary Relationships, http://pantherdb.org) programs.

Frozen heart tissues of 3‐month‐old mice were used for the isolation of total RNA. Tissues were homogenized with a TissueLyser (Qiagen, Boston, MA) using Trizol buffer followed by transferring to a chloroform containing tube and centrifuge. The supernatant was mixed with equal volume of 70% ethanol and loaded onto a Qiagen RNA processing column from the Qiagen RNeasy Min‐Kit (Qiagen, Boston, MA). All steps were followed according to the manufacturer's instructions. RNA quality and concentration was determined via NanoDrop 2000c (ThermoScientific, Wilmington, DE). A known amount of RNA was reverse transcribed to generate cDNA using the iScript Supermix kit (Bio‐Rad, Hercules, CA) on a CFX96 Thermocycler (BioRad, Hercules, CA). Primers were used at a final concentration of 0.25 to 0.5 μmol/L for target genes and normalized to GAPDH expression. Relative gene expression levels were quantified using the formula 2−ΔΔCt. A 3‐step amplification protocol was implemented: 10 minutes of denaturation at 95°C, followed by 45 cycles of denaturation (95°C, 1 second), annealing (65°C, 10 seconds), and extension (72°C, 20 seconds).

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.
