Immortalized human keratinocytes, HaCaT cell line, were obtained from ATCC-LGC Standards (Milan, Italy). MgCl2, Dulbecco’s Modified Essential Medium (DMEM), L-glutamine, penicillin, streptomycin and fetal calf serum were purchased from Invitrogen, (Carlsbad, CA, USA). Alamar Blue was bought from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA). LC Fast Start DNA Master SYBR Green kit was obtained from Roche Applied Science (Euroclone S.p.A., Pero, Italy).

Transcriptional Analysis of Skin MC Response to TSLP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Skin MCs (5 × 105 cells/mL) were deprived of GF/serum for 16 h in minimal medium. After starvation, cells were incubated with TSLP for the indicated time points. RT-qPCR was performed as described, using primers described therein [14 (link)]. Briefly, total RNA was isolated using the Nucleo spin RNA Kit (Macherey-Nagel, Düren, Germany), and RT-qPCR was carried out with the Light Cycler (LC) Fast Start DNA Master SYBR® Green kit (Roche Applied-Science, Basel, Switzerland).
The expression levels of the target gene were quantified relative to the expression of the reference gene Cyclophilin B, using the 2−ΔΔCT method. The oligonucleotide primers (TIB Molbiol, Berlin, Germany) for SCF and IL-33 were as follows:

DNA was extracted from gastrointestinal tract contents or fecal samples of rats using the NucleoSpin Soil kit protocol (Macherey-Nagel SARL, Hoerdt, France). DNA was amplified with LC-FastStart DNA Master SYBR green kit (Roche Diagnostics, France) and specific primers BL18SPPF1 (5’-AGTAGTCATACGCTCGTCTCAAA-3’) and BL18SR2PP (5’-TCTTCGTTACCCGTTACTGC-3’) using a Rotor-Gene 6000 system (Corbett Life Science, France) as described by Poirier et al [10 (link)].

Quantifying MRGPRX2 Expression via RT-qPCR

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Total RNA Kit, digested with RNase free DNase (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), and PCR carried out with the LC Fast Start DNA Master SYBR Green kit (Roche Applied Science). Primers for MRGPRX2 were 5′-GGATCAGGAAGACCGGGATCA and 5′-CGGCCTGGGGAACAGAAAGT. The values were normalized to the housekeeping genes β actin, cyclophilin B, and GAPDH (Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase), each ratio contrasted against control conditions (set as 1) and the mean of the three determinations was used for the analysis and is depicted in the figures [30 (link),31 (link),33 (link)].

Quantitative Gene Expression Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted following the Chomczynski method [12 (link)]. Reverse transcription of mRNA was carried out according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Gene expression levels were compared among subjects by the comparative threshold cycle (ΔΔCT) quantitation method. We used a LightCycler and an LC Fast Start DNA Master SYBR Green Kit (Roche Applied Science). AQP1, AQP2, AQP3, eNOS, iNOS and IL-6 gene expression were analysed using primer pairs described in the Supplementary data, Table S2. Real-time amplification of the Snail and E-cadherin gene fragments was performed with primers and conditions previously described [13 (link)]. Normalization was performed against a 147-bp amplified fragment of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) gene. The normalized SNAIL/E-CADHERIN mRNA ratio was used as a marker of epithelial-to-mesenchymal differentiation as described [14 (link)]. Depicted data represent the difference between the second and first PETs (PET2–PET1). Polymerase chain reaction product amplification efficiencies were obtained from device software and by plotting CT differences against pooled cDNA diluted ranging from 1 to 1/100, by confirming that slopes were less than specificities analysed by melting curve analysis and also confirmed by agarose gel electrophoresis.

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.
