Following harvest at time points described in the corresponding figure legend, lungs were snap frozen and stored at -80°C until use. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies) per the company's protocol. 1 μg of RNA was subjected to reverse transcription using SuperScript III RNase reverse transcriptase (Life Technologies, San Diego, CA) to create cDNA. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using SYBR green master mix (Applied Biosystems, San Francisco, CA). We measured tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) α, interleukin- (IL-) 1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p35, IL-12p40, interferon- (IFN-) γ, and keratinocyte chemoattractant (KC). Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was used as a housekeeping gene. The sequences of primers are listed in Supplementary Table 1.

Following the harvest, tissues were snap frozen and stored at −80°C for a short period. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and subjected to DNase digestion. 1 μg of RNA was subjected to reverse transcription using Superscript III RNase reverse transcriptase (Life Technologies). Real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was performed using SYBR green master mix (Applied Biosystems, South Francisco, CA, USA). We quantitated mRNA level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and glyceraldehyde-3-phsphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). The sequences of primers used for this assay were listed in Supplemental Table 1.

Reverse Transcription and qRT-PCR for Gene Expression Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
First-strand cDNA synthesis was performed using approximately 1 μg of total RNA, oligo dT primers and Superscript III RNase reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). Synthesized cDNA was used for PCR amplification with the specific primers listed in Supplementary Table 1. All PCRs were carried out in a S1000TM thermal cycler (Bio-Rad) with the following parameters: [30 (link)–35 (link)] cycles of 30 sec at 95°C, 30 sec at 55°C and 30 sec at 72°C. Quantitative reverse-transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to analyze transcripts identified by microarray assays. The SYBR Green PCR Core Reagents system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) was used for real-time monitoring of amplification.

RNA was extracted from isolated PBMC and chorionic villous tissue using a commercially available kit (NucleoSpin RNAII; Macherey-Nagel) which has been described previously 30 (link). One microgram of RNA was reverse transcribed to cDNA using Superscript III RNase Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen). qPCR was performed by the comparative threshold cycle method and normalised to β2microglobulin expression. The primers used for sFLT-1, PlGF and β2microglobulin have been described 30 (link), 31 (link). RNA expression is expressed as the percentage change compared to baseline (pre- UPI) samples.

Quantitative RT-PCR Analysis of UBE2C

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted with TRIzol reagent (Biocompare, South San Francisco, CA, USA). A total of 1 μg of RNA was reverse-transcribed with SuperScriptIII RNase Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen-GIBCO, Carlsbad, CA, USA) for cDNA synthesis. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out using a StepOnePlusTM system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) with SYBR Green Master Mix (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). All genes expression levels in cells was normalized with internal control GAPDH gene. The UBE2C primers sequences were shown as follows—the forward—5′-TGATGTCTGGCCATAAAGGGA-3′, the reverse—5′-AGCGAGAGCTTATACCTCAGG-3′.

Macrophage RNA Isolation and cDNA Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Macrophage-like cells from the head kidney were isolated and treated with LPS and curdlan 48 hours before harvested. The cells were lysed in a RT-buffer containing 2mercaptoethanol and kept at -80℃. RNA was isolated using RNeasy Mini Kit by Qiagen (Germany) -according to the manufacturer's guidelines. The yield and purity of the RNA was determined using a NanoDrop (Nano-Drop Technologies, Wilmington, DE, USA). The samples having OD 260/280 values between 1.9 and 2.1 was processed further.
To avoid the risk of having contaminating DNA, interfering with the assay, in the samples -the samples were pre-treated with DNase I (1 U µg -1 RNA; Invitrogen, USA).
To synthesize first-strand cDNA, a SuperScript III RNase reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen) was used, as described by Kumari et al. (2015) (link).

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.
