Total RNA was extracted using the 6100 Nucleic Acid Prepstation (Applied Biosystems, Darmstadt, Germany) following the manufacturer's protocol. In all, 150 ng total RNA was reverse transcribed with the ThermoScript RT-PCR System for First-Strand cDNA Synthesis (Invitrogen, Darmstadt, Germany), SuperScript III Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen) or Transcriptor High Fidelity cDNA Synthesis Kit (Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed in ABI Prism 7000 Sequence Detection System (Applied Biosystems) using the SensiMix SYBR Kit (Bioline, Luckenwalde, Germany) or Taqman Gene Expression Assay (Invitrogen). The mRNA levels were normalized to human L28 mRNA. Following primers and assays were used for quantitative RT-PCR: human AM forward, 5′-GGA TGC CGC CCG CAT CCG AG-3′ human AM reverse, 3′-GAC ACC AGA GTC CGA CCC GG-5′ human L28 forward, 5′-ATG GTC GTG CGG AAC TGC T-3′ human L28 reverse, 5′-TTG TAG CGG AAG GAA TTG CG-3′ Taqman Gene Expression Assay for HIF-1α (Hs00936368_m1).

The whole blood was defrosted. One volume of whole blood was resuspended in 1 volume of PBS and in 2 volumes of Purification Lysis Solution (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). RNA was isolated using 6100 Nucleic Acid PrepStation (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA), according to the manufacturer's protocol, and then stored at −80°C.
The RNA concentration and purity were assessed spectrophotometrically by measuring their absorbance at 260 nm and 280 nm. RNA fragmentation state was evaluated by 1.5% agarose gel.

Liver Gene Expression in Work Cycle

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Following the third work session, animals were fasted for 2 h to avoid the immediate effects of food intake on gene expression, anaesthetized with isoflurane, and sacrificed by decapitation. AW were sacrificed at ZT0, before the transition from dark to light phase, and RW at ZT12, before the transition from light to dark phase. A separate group of undisturbed animals never exposed to simulated work were used as time-matched controls, and sacrificed at the same zeitgeber times as experimental animals (AW control: ZT0; and RW control: ZT12). Liver tissue was harvested, flash frozen, and stored at −80 °C until analysis. Samples were homogenized using a TissueLyser (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA). RNA extraction was performed using a 6100 Nucleic acid PrepStation (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). A total of 20 ng RNA was transcribed to cDNA using the High Capacity RNA-to-cDNA kit (Applied Biosystems). Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was run on the Applied Biosystems 7900 Real-Time PCR System, with each sample run in triplicate. Relative gene expression levels were determined using the comparative ΔCt method, using β-actin (Actb) and ribosomal protein lateral stalk subunit P0 (Rplp0) as endogenous controls. Sequence names, main function, accession numbers, and primer sequences are shown in Table 1.

Snap-frozen tumors were disrupted using 6 mm stainless steel beads in the TissueLyser (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). RNA was extracted using the 6100 Nucleic acid prepstation (Applied Biosystems, California, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. copyDNA was synthesized using random primers in a thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems). Primers specific for mouse hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1), programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were used and relative gene expression was determined using the iQ SYBR Green supermix-CFX Connect Real-Time System (BioRad Laboratories, Temse, Belgium). The comparative threshold cycle method was used to calculate gene expression normalized to HPRT1 as a reference gene.

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.
