Quantifying IGF2BP1 and Myc mRNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
cDNA was synthesized with 2 μg of total RNA using SuperScript II Reverse Transcriptase (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and random hexamers primers for IGF2BP1 gene or oligodT for Myc gene according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Amplification reaction assays contained 1x SYBR Green PCR Mastermix (Applied Biosystem) and primers (IDT, Coralville, IA, USA) at the optimal concentrations. Primers for detection of mRNA were as follows IGF2BP1: 5′-CAGGAGATGGTGCAGGTGTTTATCC-3′ and 5′-GTTTGCCATAGATTCTTCCCTGAGC-3′, c-myc: 5′-CAGCTGCTTAGACGCTGGATT-3′ and 5′-GTAGAAATACGGCTGCACCGA-3′ [26 (link)]. The RNA expression level was measured using the threshold cycle method [45 (link)] using 23 kDa as the normalization reference.

Laser-Microdissected Cell RNA Extraction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The extraction of total RNAs from clinical samples of laser-microdissected cells was performed as described previously [8 (link)]. The amplified RNA or total RNA was reverse transcribed to generate single-stranded cDNAs using a random primer (Roche) or oligo(dT)16 primer with Superscript II reverse transcriptase (Roche). We prepared appropriate dilutions of each single-stranded cDNA for subsequent PCR amplification by monitoring tubulin, alpha 3 (TUBA3) as a quantitative control. The primer sequences were 5’-CTTGGGTCTGTAACAAAGCATTC-3’ and 5’-AAGGATTATGAGGAGGTTGGTGT-3’ for TUBA3 and 5’-GTCCTGAAAGTCAAGCACCTG-3’ and 5’-GAAGTTCTTGTTGGTGCTTATGG-3’ for C16orf74. All reactions involved initial denaturation at 94°C for 2 min, followed by 22 cycles (for TUBA3) or 28 cycles (for C16orf74) of 94°C for 30 s, 58°C for 30 s, and 72°C for 1 min on a GeneAmp PCR system 9700 (PE Applied Biosystems).

PBMC RNA Extraction and RT-qPCR Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For isolation of total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), whole blood collected in an EDTA Vacutainer™ tubes were firstly treated with red blood cell lysis buffer (Legend). Remaining leukocytes were recovered by centrifugation. After washing with phosphate buffer saline (PBS), the leukocyte pellet was processed for purification of total cellular RNA with Trizol (Invitrogen). RNA was reverse‐transcribed with Superscript II reverse transcriptase (Roche) into cDNA according to manufacturer's instruction. cDNA derived from 1 µg of total RNA served as a template for real‐time PCR. The expression levels of VEGFA (Hs00900055_m1) and GAPDH (Hs03929097_g1) were quantified by real‐time PCR using Taqman (Lifescience) with a fluorescence detection monitor 7900 Real‐time PCR system (Applied Biosystems). Mean Ct values were calculated for each molecule using 2−ΔCt method, where Ct values of the molecules were normalized to that of GAPDH.

RNA Extraction 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 using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Reverse transcription was performed from 1 μg RNA using the Superscript II Reverse Transcriptase (Roche Applied Science, Basel, Switzerland) and random primers. Real Time-PCR was carried out on cDNAs using primers listed in S2 Table and the 7900 HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). Results were normalized using the GeNorm software (http://medgen.ugent.be/Bjvdesomp/genorm/). Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test. Semi-quantitative PCR were performed using PATCHED1 primers F: 5′-GATAAGAGCTCCGGGGGATTC-3′ and R: 5′-CACAGTAGCTTAGGCTTCAGCCC-3′, and GAPDH primers F: 5’-CCAAGGCTGTGGGCAAGGTCAT-3’ and R: 5’-TGACAAGGTGCGGCTCCCTAGG-3’ as described [27 (link)]. PCR products were quantified after electrophoretic separation in 2% agarose gel, and SYBR fluorescence scanning (STORM; Molecular Dynamics, Sunnyvale, CA) using the ImageQuant software (Amersham Biosciences, Amersham, United Kingdom).

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.
