Extracting RNA from Hydrothermal Chimneys

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A chimney structure was obtained from the Noho site of the Sakai field (27°31.386′N, 126°59.209′E) (34 ), Mid-Okinawa Trough, Japan, at a depth of 1,550 m by means of the ROV Hyper-Dolphin (Dive#1860) during R/V Natsushima cruise NT15-13 (JAMSTEC) in August 2015. Immediately after its recovery onboard, the chimney structure was stored at −80°C until used.
The chimney sample was pulverized with a mortar and pestle to a fine powder of micron-size particles in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was directly extracted from 1.79–1.92 g of the sample using TRIzol reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and the RNeasy column (Qiagen), in the presence or absence of 100 μL of 0.6 M STPP. In addition, the mixture of the pulverized chimney structure and STPP was sonicated using TAITEC VP-050 (TAITEC, Koshigaya, Japan) at 10W for 20 s. After 30 min on ice, the supernatant was recovered, and RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and the RNeasy column (Qiagen) (indirect extraction). STPP was used in the indirect RNA extraction procedure because the supernatant potentially includes tiny particles of the chimney structure and/or RNA accidentally released from cells by sonication. RNA quality and the 16S rRNA copy number were evaluated as described above.

Dorsal or whole retinas were isolated from light-damaged albino zebrafish (0, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96 hLT and 2, 5, and 7 drec) or metronidazole-treated albino;Tg[rho:Eco.NfsB-EGFP]nt19 zebrafish (0, 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 h after metronidazole treatment onset), respectively. Retinas were homogenized in TRIzol following the manufacturer’s instructions to the step of phase separation, when the clear phase was mixed with 75% ethanol before transferring the mixture onto a RNeasy column (Qiagen) The RNeasy kit protocol was followed starting at the step of the RNeasy column and included a 15 min DNase step (Qiagen) according to manufacturer’s instructions. The resultant RNA was stored at −80°C. cDNA was prepared using qScript cDNA super mix (QuantaBio) and subjected to quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) as previously described (Gorsuch et al., 2017 (link)) using primers listed in Table 2.

Total RNA Extraction and Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from T cells using Qiazol (Qiagen, IT), purified from DNA contamination through a DNase I (Qiagen, IT) digestion step and further enriched by Qiagen RNeasy columns (Qiagen, IT). Integrity of RNA was assessed by Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, CA). RNA libraries for sequencing were generated in triplicate using 500 ng of RNA for each sample according to the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA kit with an initial ribosomal depletion step by using Ribo Zero Gold (Illumina, CA). Libraries were sequenced in a paired-end mode (2 × 75 bp) with NextSeq 500 (Illumina, CA). For each sample generated by the Illumina platform, a pre-process step for quality control was performed to assess sequence data quality and to discard low-quality reads.

According to the manufacturer’s instructions, approximately 107 cells
were lysed in 1 ml of TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen). DNase treatment (Qiagen,
Hamburg, Germany) was performed, and total RNA was purified with Qiagen RNeasy
Columns (Qiagen). With random hexamer primers, cDNAs were synthesized from 1 μg
of total RNA using reverse transcriptase (Applied Biosystems Inc., Foster City,
CA, USA) and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with SYBR Green
(Applied Biosystems Inc.).

Affymetrix microarrays were performed as described [42 ]. Total RNA was extracted from thymic CD4-CD8+CD3lo/- and CD4-CD8+CD3+ T cells with Trizol and purified over Qiagen RNeasy columns (Qiagen). Synthesis and labeling of RNA and hybridization of arrays was conducted. Stained arrays (430 2.0) were scanned on an Agilent Gene Array Scanner (Affymetrix). Most significantly changed mRNA transcripts are shown.

Infected macrophages (untreated, GM-CSF treated, or Vitamin D treated) were lysed in Trizol for trizol-chloroform preparation of RNA. RNA was precipitated using isopropanol and then processed using Qiagen RNEasy columns (Qiagen). RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA using SuperScript III (ThermoFisher Scientific) and quantitative PCR for hCAMP and GAPDH was done using iTAQ Universal Sybr Green (Bio-Rad).

RNA Extraction from Irradiated PBMC and Whole Blood

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA from irradiated and sham-irradiated PBMC samples was extracted 8 h after irradiation for microarray hybridisation and 8 and 24 h for qRT-PCR validation. RNA from whole blood samples used for qRT-PCR validation was extracted 8 and 24 h after irradiation. For RNA isolation from PBMCs, a combined approach consisting of the TRIzol® reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) extraction method and purification on Qiagen RNeasy columns (Qiagen, Venlo, The Netherlands), was used. More detailed information on the RNA extraction procedure can be found in the Supplementary Methods. The QIAamp RNA Blood Mini Kit (Qiagen, Venlo, The Netherlands) was used to extract RNA from whole blood samples. The starting quantity of blood was 1.5 ml per sample. All procedures were performed following the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA concentration was measured on a NanoDrop-2000 spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, Erembodegem, Belgium) and the quality of total RNA samples was assessed using Agilent 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). All samples had a RNA Integrity Number >8 and were therefore considered as suitable for further processing for microarrays and qRT-PCR.

RNA Extraction and Microarray Hybridization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was independently extracted from each of the 48 cell culture wells using QIAshredder homogenates and QIAgen RNeasy columns (Qiagen), incorporating the on-column DNase treatment (Ambion) to remove genomic DNA contamination. RNA integrity and purity was assayed visually by gel electrophoresis and additionally by A260/280 spectrophotometry. All the RNA samples resolved into discrete 16S and 26S ribosomal RNA bands.
Because each of the four treatment groups comprised 12 independent RNA samples, these 12 were pooled into 3 major groups of 4 replicates with each replicate contributing 0.5 μg. This process yielded 12 by 2.0 μg pooled RNA samples as follows (no transfection 1, no transfection 2, no transfection 3, empty construct 1, empty construct 2, empty construct 3, short transcript 1, short transcript 2, short transcript 3, long transcript 1, long transcript 2, long transcript 3).
The 12 RNA pools were submitted to the Gene Expression Centre at the University of Queensland’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience for cDNA synthesis and hybridisation to the Illumina WG6 mouse microarray platform. This facility performed an additional set of quality checks based on possession of an RNA Integrity Number (RIN) >8 assayed on a Bioanalyzer.

Mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated by Ficoll-Paque gradient centrifugation (Pharmacia) from bone marrow or peripheral blood samples followed by extraction of nucleic acids according to standardized protocols using Qiagen DNA Blood Kits (Qiagen) for DNA and Qiagen RNeasy columns (Qiagen) for RNA. The quantity of nucleic acids was determined by spectrophotometry. DNA quality was assessed visually by inspection of agarose gel electrophoresis while RNA integrity was evaluated by using the Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent). Nucleic acids isolated from bone marrow aspirates collected in morphological remission served as individual germline surrogates/references.

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.
