Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent according to the manufacturer’s instructions, followed by cDNA synthesis of 1μg total RNA with Quanta qScript™ cDNA Synthesis Kit (Quanta Biosciences). iQ SYBR Green Supermix (Bio-Rad) was used for quantification of mRNA, which was performed on a Bio-Rad CFX96 Real-Time PCR Detection system. CFX Manager software was used to determine the crossing points for incorporation of the SYBR Green. Relative expression was determined with β-actin as a reference gene. Primers are as follows: Batf 5′-AGCTTCAGCCGCTCTCCT-3′ and 5′-GGTGTCGGCTTTCTGTGTCT-3′, Irf4 5′-ACGCTGCCCTCTTCAAGG-3′ and 5′-GCTCCTCTCGACCAATTCCT-3′, p21 5′-TCCACAGCGATATCCAGACA-3′ and 5′-GCGCAACTGCTCACTGTC-3′, CyclinD2 5′-GCTAGGAACATGCACACTGC-3′ and 5′-CTGGGGCTTCACAGAGTTGT-3′, γ1-GLT: 5′-GGCCCTTCCAGATCTTTGAG-3′ and 5′-GGATCCAGAGTTCCAGGTCACT-3′, γ3-GLT: 5′-AACTACTGCTACCACCACCACCAG and 5′-ACCAAGGGATAGACAGATGGGG-3′, μ-GLT: 5′-CTCTGGCCCTGCTTATTGTTG-3′ and 5′-GAAGACATTTGGGAAGGACTGACT-3. Primers for AID, β-actin, μ-chain, γ1-chain and γ3 have been previously described (17 (link)).

cDNA was generated from 1 μg total RNA using a Quanta qScript cDNA Synthesis kit (Quanta BioSciences, MD, United States). rpsL was used as housekeeping gene control and the primers were listed in Table 2. The qPCR was performed using PowerUpTM SYBRTM Green Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific) on an Eco Illumina real-time detection system (Montreal Biotech) under the following conditions: UDG activation at 50°C for 2 min, Dual-LockTM DNA polymerase initiation at 95°C for 2 min, and 40 cycles of 95°C for 15 s and 60°C for 1 min. Fold changes of gene expression levels were calculated according to the 2–ΔΔCq method. Each sample was measured in triplicate and repeated at least three times.

RNA was extracted from tissue or cells using the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Venlo, The Netherlands). In short, lysis was performed with Qiazol Lysis reagent (Qiagen) supplemented with 1% β-mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich). RNA concentration and quality were determined with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (Isogen Life Science, The Netherlands). cDNA synthesis was conducted using the Quanta qScript cDNA synthesis kit (Quanta Biosciences, Boston, MA, USA) per manufacturer’s instructions. qPCR was performed on a StepOnePlus™ Real-Time PCR system (Applied biosystems, Ghent, Belgium) using the SYBR green method (Applied Biosystems). The master mix contained 1× SYBR green, 10 µM primers, 12.5 ng cDNA, and nuclease free water. Data were normalized to the most stable reference genes and the ΔΔCt method was used to determine relative quantification of gene expression. Primers were designed using NCBI’s Primer-blast (details are shown in Table 1).

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.
