Briefly, 30 µL of vRNAs or 30 µL of IVT RNA mixes were purified and concentrated to 10 µL using Agencourt RNAClean XP SPRI beads (Beckman Coulter) and subjected to first strand cDNA synthesis using the Superscript III First-Strand Synthesis System for RT-PCR Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and a mixture of random hexamers and U12–U13 specific primers (see above). The second cDNA strand was synthetized using 5 U of E. coli RNase H, 40 U of E. coli DNA polymerase, and 10 U of E. coli DNA ligase for 2 h at 16°C (New England Biolabs). Double-stranded cDNAs were purified using Agencourt RNAClean XP SPRI beads (Beckman Coulter) and quantified using the Quant-iT RNA Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

RNA-Seq Library Preparation and Sequencing

After RNA samples have been quantified and analyzed they were DNase treated using a TURBO DNase 2 U µL−1 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and cleaned using Agencourt RNAClean XP SPRI beads (Beckman Coulter). RNA-Seq libraries were then produced from these samples using a slightly modified ScriptSeq v2 RNA-Seq Library Preparation Kit (Illumina) ensuring use of unique index primers through ScriptSeq Index PCR Primers (Sets 1–4) 48 rxns/set (Illumina). Libraries were quantified by both a Qubit dsDNA HS Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and by High Sensitivity DNA Kit (Agilent). The resulting molarity was then used to determine at what concentration samples should be pooled to (either 1, 2, or 4 nM). After a desired pooling concentration was chosen, the samples were diluted to that particular molarity and 2 µL of each sample dilution was added into a single tube and submitted to the Boston University Microarray and Sequencing Resource Core Facility. Whole transcriptome RNA sequencing was performed by a NextSeq 500 (Illumina) at high output (400 M reads) with 75 bp paired end sequencing read length. The data was then analyzed in-house through a proprietary Galagan Lab pipeline.

Mouse cell populations were sorted into RLT lysis buffer or buffer composed of 0.2% Triton X-100 (Sigma) and 2 U/µl of RNase Inhibitor (Promega). ERCC spike-in controls (Life Technologies) were added to the cell lysis mix at a 1:1,000 dilution. RNA was cleaned from the crude lysate with Agencourt RNAclean XP SPRI beads (Beckman Coulter). cDNA was synthesized and pre-amplified from 5 µl of lysate as described elsewhere54 (link), and 0.7 ng of pre-amplified cDNA was used as input for tagmentation with the Nextera XT Sample Preparation kit (Illumina), where a second amplification round was performed for 12 cycles. For each sample, 5 ng of the final library was pooled, and 10 pmol of the library pool was sequenced with 1 × 50 base sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 1500.

Freshly isolated individual CTCs were selected using a micromanipulator and introduced into a 0.5ml tube with 7ml of 1x lysis buffer (Takara, Cat#634891) containing recombinant RNase inhibitor (0.4U/ml; Takara, Cat#2313A), snap frozen and maintained at −80oC until processing. Single cell lysates were transferred into 96-well plates (Eppendorf, 951020401), and RNA extraction and clean up were carried out using Agencourt RNAClean XP SPRI beads (Beckman Coulter, A63987). Prior to library construction using the Nextera XT library Prep kit (Illumina, FC-131–1096), two steps of quality control were done to evaluate the concentration of each single cell, using Qubit dsDNA high sensitivity assay kit (Life Technologies, Q32854), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Single cell CTC libraries were prepared using a modified Smart-Seq2 protocol (76 (link)). Combined libraries were sequenced on a NextSeq 500 sequencer (Illumina) using the 75 cycles kit, with paired-end 38-base-reads and dual barcoding.

RNA-seq Analysis of Nanoparticle Exposure

Total RNA was extracted from cells harvested at 0 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h of exposure to NMs (25 µg/mL) using the TRIZOL reagent (Life Technologies, Stockholm, Sweden) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Total RNA was quantified by NanoDrop (NanoDrop Technologies, ThermoScientific, Stockholm, Sweden) and RNA quality was assessed using the Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Three biological replicates of each sample were submitted for RNA sequencing [19 (link)]. In brief, the sequencing was performed using 1 μg total RNA following the Illumina® mRNA-Seq library preparation protocol (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). To this end, poly(A) RNA was isolated by two rounds of oligo (dT)25 Dynabeads (Invitrogen, Stockholm, Sweden) purification. Then, the chemically fragmented mRNAs were purified by Agencourt RNAClean XP SPRI beads (Agencourt-Beckman Coulter, Beverly, MA, USA) and converted to first strand cDNA, followed by second strand cDNA synthesis. The paired-end sequencing library was prepared from purified double stranded cDNA using the NEBNext® DNA Library Prep Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). The purified ligated product was PCR amplified and the prepared libraries were quantified and quality-assessed and sequenced on the Illumina® HiSeq 2000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA).

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.
