Total RNA was extracted with TRIzol (Thermo Fisher Scientific), phase-separated with chloroform, and precipitated using isopropanol. One microgram of RNA was reverse-transcribed using iScript cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bio-Rad), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. iTaq Universal SYBR green reagent (Bio-Rad) was used to detect gene expression during amplification of complementary DNA after initial denaturation at 95°C for 30 s for one cycle and 95°C for 5 s and 60°C for 30 s for 40 cycles on a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cycler (Bio-Rad). The mouse primer sequences are as follows:
OSX (forward, TGCCTGACTCCTTGGGACC; reverse, TAGTGAGCTTCTTCCTCAAGCA), OPN (forward, AAACCAGCCAAGGTAAGCCT; reverse, TCAGTCACTTTCACCGGGAG), NFATC1 (forward, GGTAACTCTGTCTTTCTAACCTTA; reverse, GTGATGACCCCAGCATGCACCAGTCACAG), CTSK (forward, GGGCTCAAGGTTCTGCTGC; reverse, TGGGTGTCCAGCATTTCCTC), ACP5 (forward, CAGCAGCCCAAAATGCCT; reverse, TTTTGAGCCAGGACAGCTGA), ESR1 (forward, CTTGAACCAGCAGGGTGGC; reverse, GAGGCTTTGGTGTGAAGGGT), ESR2 (forward, GACGAAGAGTGCTGTCCCAA; reverse, GCCAAGGGGTACATACTGGAG), ADORA2B (forward, ATCTTTAGCCTCTTGGCGGTG; reverse, GACCCAGAGGACAGCAATGAT), and 18S ribosomal RNA (forward, ACCAGAGCGAAAGCATTTGCCA; reverse, ATCGCCAGTCGGCATCGTTTAT).

RNA isolation from the lungs was performed using TRIzol™ Reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Complementary DNA was transcribed using the RevertAid H Minus Reverse Transcriptase (Fermentas, Waltham, MA) kit. For detection of the transcript, the iTaq Universal SYBR Green reagent (Biorad, Hercules, CA) and a Biorad CFX Connect Real Time polymerase chain reaction system were utilized, using specific primers depicted in Table S4. For determination of relative gene expression ratios, the Pfaffl method was applied. Calculation of bestkeeper values was performed using actin beta (ACTB), 28S and TATA‐box binding protein (TBP) as housekeeping genes.34

A quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was performed on representative technical replicates to validate relative amounts of mitochondria between samples. A qPCR was performed according to vendor protocol with iTaq Universal Sybr green reagent (Bio-Rad) on 5 ng of mtDNA per sample for NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (mtND1; forward primer 5′-CCC ATT CGC GTT ATT CTT-3′ and reverse primer 5′-AAG TTG ATC GTA ACG GAA GC-3′) and mitochondrial ribosomal RNA (mt16S; forward primer 5′-CCG CAA GGG AAA GAT GAA AGA C-3′, and reverse primer 5′-TCG TTT GGT TTC GGG GTT TC-3′). Ct values were compared between samples.

RNA and cDNA samples were analyzed on an Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer using the 6000 Nano or Pico Kit, respectively, according to manufacturer's instructions (Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany). 1.2 μg of total RNA was converted to cDNA using the SuperScript III First-Strand Synthesis System with poly-dT primer extension and final RNase H treatment (Life Technologies). For detecting CYC1 transcripts, cDNA samples were subjected to PCR using the following primers: 5′-region: Forward (FW): 5′-GTCGTCGAAGTCTGGCCTTT-3′, Reverse (RV): 5′-CACGGTGAGACCACGGATAG-3′; Central-region: FW: 5′-GCCTCCTCTCTTCCTTGGAC-3′, RV: 5′-TCTTCATTGGGGCCGTCTTG-3′; 3′-region: FW: 5′-GGCATGGTGGTGAGGACTAC-3′, RV: 5′-CCCATGCGTTTTCGATGGTC-3′. For each sample, 1 μl of the cDNA solution (57 ng total RNA equivalent) was serially diluted 1:10, 1:100, 1:1,000, and 1:10,000, and PCR amplified in a Bio-Rad CFX Connect Real-Time PCR cycler using 0.2 μM primers and the iTaq Universal SYBR Green reagent (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA).

RNA of cells and tissue was purified using E.Z.N.A. total RNA kit (Omega Biotek) and reverse transcribed using RevertAid H Minus Reverse Transcriptase (Fermentas). Tissue was homogenized using RNA homogenizer mini columns (Omega Biotek) prior to RNA isolation. qPCR was performed using specific primers (Supplementary Table 3), iTaq Universal SYBR Green reagents (Biorad) and a Biorad CFX Connect Real Time PCR system. Relative gene expression ratios were determined according to the Pfaffl method, using ACTB as a housekeeping gene. In the A549Δp53 ortotopic xenografts, Bestkeeper values were calculated using human 28S and human TATA box binding protein (TBP), as well as mouse Actb and 28S as reference genes. (49 (link))

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.
