A total of 2 μL of RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA using RT reagent (Fluidigm, San Francisco, CA, USA), using a programmed thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) under the following conditions: 5 min at 25 °C; 30 min at 42 °C; 5 min at 85 °C; and finally held at 4 °C. Pre-amplification of TaqMan probes (all ThermoFisher Scientific Waltham, MA, USA, Supplementary Table S2) and cDNA was carried out as previously described [32 (link)]. Transcript analysis was performed by qPCR using the Biomark HD gene expression system (Fluidigm, San Francisco, CA, USA), as previously described [18 (link)]. Hierarchal clustering of the data was performed using Cluster 3.0 and Java TreeView v.1.1.6 [31 (link)]. Genes showing a high degree of clustering were further analysed by normalizing values to the respective samples’ own undifferentiated MSCs using the ∆∆Ct method [37 (link)]. The use of this methodology allowed for patient variability to be accounted for in the downstream statistical analysis by assisting in the normalizing of values.

T-cells were sorted using an Influx (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) cell sorter directly into RNA extraction buffer, supplied as a component of the PicoPure RNA isolation kit (Thermofisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). cDNA was synthesized with a reverse transcription kit (Fluidigm, San Francisco, CA, USA) and then underwent pre-amplification (18 cycles) using a pre-amp master mix (Fluidigm, San Francisco, CA, USA) with a solution containing all primer sets. All primers were purchased from Applied Biosystems. Transcript analysis was performed by qPCR using the Biomark HD gene expression system (Fluidigm, San Francisco, CA, USA), and values displayed are the log 10ΔCt relative to the Hypoxanthine Phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1) housekeeping gene (Supplementary Table S2).

Single-Cell Transcriptional Profiling of T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T cells were sorted using an Influx (BD) cell sorter directly into RNA extraction buffer, supplied as a component of the PicoPure RNA isolation kit (Thermo Fisher). cDNA was synthesised with a reverse transcription kit (Fluidigm) then underwent preamplification (18 cycles) using a pre-amp master mix (Fluidigm) with a solution containing all primer sets. All primers were purchased from Applied Biosystems. Transcript analysis was performed by qPCR using the Biomark HD gene expression system (Fluidigm); values displayed are log 10ΔCt relative to the HPRT1 housekeeping gene.
qRT-PCR was completed using the TaqMan Gene expression assay as per the manufacturer’s instructions (Applied Biosystems). Samples, no template control (NTC) and positive controls (pooled cDNA) were loaded onto either a MicroAmp Optical 96-Well Reaction Plate (Applied Biosystems) or a MicroAmp Optical 384-Well Reaction Plate (Applied Biosystems) and run on either the Quantstudio 5 or Quantstudio 7 instrument, respectively (both from Applied Biosystems) using the Quantstudio Design and Analysis software (V. 1.4, Thermo Scientific), the Comparative Threshold (Ct) value was subsequently normalised using the HPRT1 housekeeping gene and unstimulated control for 2-ΔΔCt. All primers were purchased from Applied Biosystems. A full list of primers used can be found in online supplementary table 2.

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.
