One ml of saliva was dissolved in 4ml PBS and DNA was extracted based on instruction of DNA extraction kit (FavorGen) and was stored at -20°C. Since the PCR product were subsequently applied for DGGE, at the start of forward primer, a GC clamp with 40 bases was added. Primers sequences for 16S rDNA are shown in Table 1 (Table 1). The thermal cycling was as follow: a first denaturation step: 94°C in 1 min followed by 30 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 45 seconds, annealing at 53°C in 30sec, extension at 72°C for 35 seconds and a round of 5 min at 72°C as the final extension process. The PCR mixture contained 2X master mix (YektaTajhizAzma), 10pmol/ μl of each primer and 2 μl (50ng) DNA template. Accuracy of PCR reaction was characterized by agarose gel electrophoresis. At the next step, PCR products were separated by DGGE Electrophoresis.

Peripheral blood sample was drawn to examine gene polymorphisms. All the patients’ genomic DNA was extracted from 200 µl of blood sample in EDTA by using a DNA extraction kit (FAVORGEN, Ping-Tung, Taiwan). Polymerase chain reactions (PCRs), PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs), or direct sequencing were performed to identify polymorphisms of TPH1 rs211105 (11:g.18033757T>G) located within intron 3, rs4537731 (11:g.18047335A>G) located within the promoter region at –1066, insertion/deletion polymorphisms in 5-HTTLPR, and VNTR counts in 5-HTT, as previously reported.(24 (link)) The specimens for direct sequencing were run on an Applied Biosystems 3130xl Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems, Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA), conforming with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

RA-FLSs were cultured in 6 cm dishes to a confluence of 60–80%. The cells were then exposed to UV light for 5, 10, and 15 min. The medium was removed and washed twice with PBS for the following experiment. RA-FLSs were harvested for DNA extraction using a DNA extraction kit (Favorgen). DNA fragmentation was performed by ultrasonication for 30 min to shear the DNA into fragments of 500 bp as determined by DNA gel electrophoresis. RA-FLSs cultured in 6-well plates were transfected with 5 μg of DNA fragments for 24–72 h in the absence or presence of Lipofectamine 3000. Furthermore, another group of RA-FLSs was also transfected with different concentrations of DNA fragments (1, 5, and 10 μg) with Lipofectamine 3000 for 24 h. All the medium was removed, and the cells were washed once with PBS before the next step of analysis.

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.
