Corneal Tissue Microdissection and Analysis

Specific microdissection was performed to provide portions suitable for 30-µm radial or tangential cross-sectioning. Briefly, corneoscleral specimens were dissected into three portions: four limbal, four corneal, and four conjunctival squares, all belonging to the same corneoscleral specimen. Cutting activity was carried out under a dissecting stereomicroscope (SMZ645; Nikon) equipped with cold-light optic fibers (PL2000 photonic; Axon, Vienna, Austria), under the supervision of an expert pathologist. Limbal zone was defined by the end of the Bowman's layer, at the level of vascularized connective tissue. Peripheral cornea was defined 2 mm from limbal landmark, characterized by the avascular cornea. Each of these three portions was cut into cubes of approximately 1 × 1.5 × 2.5 mm by a scalpel, and pooled samples (four squares for specimen) were directly extracted in lysis buffer (mirVana PARIS RNA and Native Protein Purification kit; ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Subsequently, two-thirds of the extract was used for the biochemical analysis and one-third of the extract was devoted to the molecular analysis. Opening quantification analysis was carried out for protein (3-µL extracts) and total RNA (1.5-µL extracts; A280 program; limit as >1.8 ratio) by using a spectrophotometer for small volumes (A1000 Nanodrop; Celbio, Milan, Italy).

Total protein was extracted using a commercially available mirVana PARIS RNA and Native Protein Purification kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Protein levels were detected using appropriate primary antibody dilutions against MOG (1:1000; sourced from Abcam, ab109746) and secondary antibody (Alexa 594-conjugated antibody to rabbit, 1:10 000, Life Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific). Primary antibody against alpha tubulin (sourced from Sigma-Aldrich, Cat# T5168) was used to determine equal protein loading. Quantification of protein bands was analysed using Image Studio Lite (LI-COR, Lincoln, NE, USA). Significance was determined by a one-way analysis of variance.

Blood samples were obtained by venipuncture using Serum Gel S/7.5 ml collection tubes (Sarstedt S-Monovette), allowed to clot for 60 min at room temperature, and then centrifuged at 1300 ×g for 10 min at 4°C. Next, 500 µl of serum was aliquoted into 1.5 ml siliconized polypropylene microtubes (Sigma-Aldrich, T4816) and stored at -80°C until further use. MiRNAs were isolated from 1200 μl of serum mirVana Paris RNA and Native Protein Purification Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The quantity of miRNA was checked using the MyQubit microRNA Assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The small RNA fraction was detected using the Small RNA Kit (Agilent) and a Bioanalyzer 2100. Samples that passed the quality check were kept at -80°C until further analyses.

Total RNA (not enriched for small RNAs) was isolated from 0.5 mL CSF using the mirVana™ PARIS™ RNA and Native Protein Purification Kit (ThermoFisher Scientific), with modifications [13 (link)]. RNA samples were concentrated (RNA Clean & Concentrator™−5 Kit; Zymo Research) and eluted into 8 µL of RNAse/DNase-free water. 3.2 µL of concentrated RNA was transcribed using MultiScribeReverse Transcriptase (ThermoFisher Scientific) in an 8 µL reaction volume, and 2.5 µL of the cDNA was pre-amplified in separate reactions with Megaplex™ RT Primer Pool Set v3.0.A or v3.0.B on a T-100 thermocycler (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) following the manufacturer’s instructions for detection of miRNAs with pre-amplification. The pre-amplification products were diluted into a prescribed final volume of 100 µL with water, and stored at −20°C.

miRNA Expression Profiling Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Sample’s total RNA was extracted using mirVana™ PARIS™ RNA and Native Protein Purification Kit (ThermoFisher, MA, USA) according to the directions. TaqMan™ Advanced miRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit was used to perform reverse transcriptase reactions, augment, and qPCR (ThermoFisher, MA, USA). First, the samples were performed the poly(A) tailing reaction, and then performed the adaptor ligation reaction. Next, the miR-Amp reaction was performed followed by the reverse transcription (RT) reaction carried out. Finally, real-time PCR was performed under the experiment settings and PCR thermal cycling conditions (Enzyme activation was at 95°C for 20 s, 1 cycle; Denature was at 95°C for 1 s and Anneal/Extend was at 60°C for 20 s, 40 cycles). The ΔΔCT method was used for quantitative analysis. The quantitative measures were normalized to U6 mRNA levels.

HEK293T cells, seeded at 600,000 cells/well in 6 well plates, were transfected after 24 hours from seeding using SQSTM1 and MAP1LC3B shRNA plasmid DNA (from Sigma-Aldrich) and Lipofectamine® 2000 transfection reagent (Life Technologies 11668019) according to manufacturer's protocol. Cells were harvested 48 hours after transfection. RNA was purified using the MirVana PARIS RNA and native protein purification kit (Thermo Fisher AM1556), following the manufacturer’s instruction, which allowed purification of RNA and proteins from the same sample for real-time quantitative PCR, TR-FRET and western blot analyses. RNA was further purified from DNA traces by performing a treatment with TURBO DNA-free kit (Ambion, AM1907). Messenger RNA was retrotranscripted using the superscript III first-strand synthesis system for RT-PCR (Life Technologies 18080–051) according to manufacturer's protocol. The power SYBR green PCR master mix (ThermoFisher, 4367659) was applied to test p62 and LC3B expression with the T900 HT AbiPrism real-time PCR Instrument. Expression of p62 and LC3B were calculated and compared with the expression of β-actin through the 2^-ΔΔCT approach and expressed relative to the scramble group.

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.
