Single-cell RNA-seq of FFPE samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from the pooled LCM-captured cells with the NucleoSpin totalRNA FFPE XS kit (Macherey-Nagel, REF740969) with minor modifications. In short, cells in the cap were covered with lysis buffer, incubated at 56°C for 15 min and then spun down. Extracted RNA was bound onto the column with binding buffer and genomic DNA was digested for 15 min in rDNase incubation solution. After two washes, RNA was eluted with 10 μl of RNase-free water. rRNA was removed from the purified RNA with the Ribo-Zero Magnetic Gold Kit (Epicentre, MRZG126). The purified RNA was amplified with the SMARTer Universal Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing (Clontech, 634938) and libraries were generated with the Low Input Library Prep Kit (Clontech, 634947). Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq2000 (100 PE bp) at the Welgene Biotech Company, which generated 6 Gb of data per sample. RNA was quantified and qualitated with the Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies) using a RNA 6000 Pico LabChip (Agilent, 5065–4401). DNA was quantified and qualitated with an Agilent 2200 TapeStation system using High Sensitivity D1000 ScreenTape (Agilent, 5067–5584) and High Sensitivity D1000 Reagents (Agilent, 5067–5585).

Profiling FFPE Transcripts with ERCC Spike-Ins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated from single 10 μM slide-mounted FFPE sections using the RNeasy FFPE kit from Qiagen. After isolation, total RNA was mixed with ERCC Spike-In Mix 1 control RNA (Life Technologies) and converted to cDNA using the SMARTer Universal Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing (Clontech), which uses random primers for the conversion. The Ion Plus Fragment Library kit (Life Technologies) was used to add barcodes, amplify and size-select the final library. Four individually barcoded samples were sequenced together on Ion Proton P1v2 chips by the Analytical and Translational Genomics Shared Resource at the University of New Mexico Cancer Center. See Supplementary Methods for details. RNA sequencing data is available for download from the NCBI Sequence Read Archive using SRA study accession number SRP059557. Nine of the ACC samples were analyzed twice to confirm the reproducibility of the assays (data not shown).

Total RNAs was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) and the quality of RNAs were evaluated by modified formaldehyde agarose gel electrophoresis and OD260/OD280 absorbance ratio detection using a Genova Nano spectrophotometer (Bibby Scientific; Cole-Palmer, Stone, UK). RNA-seq data from the osteoblastic or adipocytic differentiation induced MSCs were obtained at 7, 14 or 21 days using SMARTer Universal Low Input RNA kit for sequencing (Clontech Laboratories, Inc., Mountainview, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer's protocol. The Fast-QC software (Babraham Bioinformatics, Cambridge, UK; http://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc) was used to assess the data, including the quality value distribution of bases. RNA sequences were subsequently mapped to human genome sequences using TopHat software 1.3 release (Center for Computational Biology, John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA; https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/tophat/index.shtml) (16 (link)). Expression values of mRNAs were calculated based on the fragments per kilobase of exon, per million of fragments mapped and fragment length.

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.
