Total cellular RNA was extracted and purified from liver and spleen samples using TRI ReagentTM Solution (Invitrogen, Paris, France) and then treated with DNase (Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France) (1 U DNase/µg total RNA). RNA from bone marrow cells (BM) was extracted using the Nucleospin® RNA kit (Macherey-Nagel, Hoerdt, France). Reverse transcription was performed with a high-capacity cDNA reverse transcription kit (Applied Biosystems, Villebon-sur-Yvette, France) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Quantitative PCR amplifications were carried out in duplicate using Power SYBR® green PCR master mix (Applied Biosystems), 0.3 µM primers, and 2 µl of cDNA in a final volume of 10 µl, in 384-well optical plates, using a CFX384 TouchTM real-time PCR detection system (Bio-Rad, Marnes-la-Coquette, France). Gene-specific primers (Additional file 1: Table S1) were synthesized by Sigma-Aldrich (Lyon, France). Expression levels of target genes were normalized by comparison to expression of murine 18S rRNA. Results were expressed as 2–ΔΔCq referring to the fold induction in relation to the mean quantification cycle obtained with DPBS-treated mice.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from frozen barley leaves by the phenol/chloroform method, followed by precipitation with 8 M LiCl (Oñate-Sánchez and Vicente-Carbajosa, 2008 (link)) and digested with DNase (Promega). Using poly-T oligo-attached magnetic beads, mRNAs were purified from the total RNA. Then, the mRNAs were fragmented and cDNA was synthesized using random hexamer-primers, DNA polymerase I and RNase H. The double-stranded cDNAs were purified with magnetic beads and ligated to adaptors for Illumina sequencing. The quality and quantity of the library was verified using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer and an ABI StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR system, respectively. The cDNA libraries were sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform by the Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI). More than 10M single-end reads were obtained for each sample (three biological replicates). Raw reads in fastq format were firstly filtered and reads with adaptor sequences and low quality reads were removed. RNA-seq data are available on ArrayExpress database at EMBL-EBI1 under accession number E-MTAB-6565.

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.
