Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bisulphite conversion of tumour and matching control DNA was carried out using the Epitect Bisulfite Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). MSH3 methylation status was determined by methylation-specific PCR on bisulphite-treated DNA. PCR reactions specific for methylated and unmethylated MSH3 [11 (link)] were performed, with universally methylated and unmethylated DNA (Merck Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA) used as positive and negative controls. Amplified PCR products were run on agarose gels and visualised with the E-Box imager (Vilber Lourmat, Collégien, France). MCC and CDKN2A (p16) methylation and CIMP were analysed as previously described [18 (link),19 (link),31 (link)]. Cancers were classified as either CIMP-H if ≥3/5 of the marker genes showed methylation, CIMP-L when 1–2/5 markers were positive or CIMP-negative when 0/5 markers were positive.
cDNA was prepared from total RNA (or mRNA) using the Quantitect Reverse Transcription Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), following the manufacturer’s protocol. MSH3 expression was analysed by quantitative RT-PCR using Taqman assays (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). MSH3 (hs00989003_m1) was normalised to GAPDH (hs99999905_m1). Assays were carried out in triplicate on the ABI7900HT (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and the ΔΔCT method was used for data analysis.

Quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) was used to investigate the accordance of gene expression by CTD treatment with a published gene signature for genotoxicity in HepaRG cells (Kreuzer et al., 2020 (link)). Cultivation and treatment were performed as described above. RNA isolation was performed with the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and transcription of RNA into cDNA was conducted with the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA), both according to the manufacturers’ protocol. Real-time RT-PCR was performed on ABI7900HT (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, USA) with Maxima SYBR Green/ROX qPCR Master Mix (Thermo Fisher). Thermal cycling started with an initial denaturation at 95 °C for 15 min, followed by 40 cycles of denaturation for 15 s at 95 °C and primer binding and elongation for 60 s at 60 °C. A final elongation step at 60 °C for 15 min and the addition of a dissociation curve step ended the procedure. ACTB, GAPDH and GUSB were used as housekeepers. For analysis of gene expression, their geometric mean was calculated. The 2−ΔΔCT method was used to calculate relative gene expression levels (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001 (link)). Primers were purchased from Eurofins Genomics (Ebersberg, Germany); corresponding sequences are shown in Supplemental 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.
