Vector Genome Copy Determination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Vector genome copy determination of the transduced cells was performed by first isolating DNA using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit protocol (QIAGEN, Venlo, the Netherlands). DNA was eluted in 50 μL of water for injection, and the concentration was measured by NanoDrop 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Loughborough, UK). Primers specific for the CAG promoter were used to amplify a sequence specific for the transgenes by SYBR Green Fast qPCR (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The vector genome copies per microgam of genomic DNA input of the samples were calculated by interpolation of a standard line of the expression cassette. To define the background levels of the qPCR, a blank sample was subjected to qPCR using the same expression cassette-targeting primers.

DNA isolation from brain tissue punches was performed using the DNeasy blood and tissue kit (QIAGEN, Germany). Primers specific for the CAG promoter sequence were used to measure the vector genome copies (gcs) by SYBR Green Fast qPCR (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The amount of vector DNA was calculated based on a plasmid standard curve. Results were reported as gc/mg genomic DNA.

Tissue punches were crushed using CryoPrep System (Covaris, Woburn, MA, USA), and powder was divided for RNA and DNA analyses. For DNA isolation, 20 mg of powdered tissue was used with the DNeasy 96 Blood and Tissue kit (QIAGEN, Germany). Primers specific for the CAG promoter were used to amplify a sequence specific for the transgenes by SYBR Green Fast qPCR (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The amount of vector DNA was calculated from a plasmid standard curve, which was taken along on the same plate. Results were reported as gc per microgram of genomic DNA.

RNA of adipose tissue was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY). 50 mg adipose tissue/sample was ground into homogenization in liquid nitrogen before RNA extraction. We employed the QuantiTect Reverse Transcription kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) to reverse mRNA into cDNA. For quantitative RT–PCR (qPCR), aliquots of cDNA were employed for Fast SYBR green qPCR (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA) and quantified with the QuantStudio 5 Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA). The sequence of primers are summarized in the Supplementary Table 1.

Quantitative RT-PCR Analysis of NRP2 Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA isolation was performed using an RNeasy purification kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Quiagen, Hilden, Germany). For reverse transcription of RNA into DNA, the QuantiTect Reverse Transcription kit was employed (Quiagen, Hilden, Germany). For quantitative RT-PCR (qPCR), aliquots of cDNA were employed for Fast SYBR green qPCR (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA) and quantified with the 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA). RPL41 as HCC housekeeping gene and the average ΔCT value of the HCC cell line 3sp were used to calculate the ΔΔCT values for all cell lines. The ΔΔCT values were used to graph the fold-change (RQ) via the formula RQ = 2^(−ΔΔCT). Error bars show SE of ΔΔCT, calculated with the following formula: SE(ΔΔCT) = √((SE(ΔCT Control)^2) ± (SE(ΔCT Target)^2)). The primer sequences are: NRP2 (forward), 5’-CTGTGGGTCATCCGTGAGGAC-3’ and NRP2 (reverse) 5’-ATGGGTTCCATGCAGTTCTCCAG-3’; RPL41 (forward), 5’-CAAGTGGAGGAAGAAGCGA-3’ and RPL41 (reverse), 5’-TTACTTGGACCTCTGCCTC-3’.

Total RNA was extracted, treated with DNaseI and reverse transcribed using a RNA isolation and cDNA synthesis kit as recommended by the manufacturer (Quiagen, Hilden, Germany). Aliquots of cDNA were employed for Fast SYBR green qPCR (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA) 2 and quantified with the 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA). The following probes, forward and reverse primer sequences were used: CD32b: 5’- CCATCTGGACTGGAGCCAAC-3’ and 5’- TGGCTTGCTTTTCCCAATGC-3’; CD146: 5’-CGGGTGTGCCAGGAGAG-3’ and 5’-ACCAGTCCACTTGGCTGAAG-3’; vWF: 5’-TGGCAAGGTTTTTCAGGGGA-3’ and 5’-TAAGCAGGTGATGCAGAGGC-3’; Stab-1: 5’-ACGCTTCTAACGCCACCTTT-3’ and 5’-CCACACGATGACGTGGCTAA-3’; Stab-2: 5’-CACTATGTCGGGGATGGACG-3’ and 5’-GGGAGCGTAGGTGGAATACG-3’; LYVE-1: 5’-TACAGGACCCATGGCTGAGA-3’ and 5’-GGTGCCAAGCATTTCGGTTT-3’; RhoA: 5’-CCATCATCCTGGTTGGGAAT-3’ and 5’-CCATGTACCCAAAAGCGC-3’.

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.
