Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA in situ hybridization (ISH) for the IFN-induced gene IFIT1 and the pDC marker gene C-type lectin domain family 4 member C (CLEC4C, also known as BDCA2) was performed using RNAscope® 2.5 HD Red assay kit (Advanced Cell Diagnostics) and RNAscope probe specific to the gene encoding Homo sapiens (Hs) IFIT1 transcript variant 3 mRNA and Hs CLEC4C transcript variant 2 mRNA, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 5 μm formalin-fixed paraffin embedded biopsied kidney tissue sections were pretreated with heat and proteases prior to hybridization with the target oligo probes. Preamplifiers and amplifiers were sequentially hybridized to the target probe, and alkaline phosphatase-based amplifiers were then hybridized in final steps followed by detection using chromogenic substrate. Samples were quality-controlled for RNA integrity with an RNAscope probe specific to Hs-PPIB RNA and for background signal using bacterial negative control probe DapB. Specific RNA staining signal was identified as red, punctate dots. ISH for IFIT1 mRNA and CLEC4C mRNA was done in serial sections for every sample. Quantitative measurement of mRNA expression (i.e. IFIT1 and CLEC4C) and heatmap analysis was performed by Visiopharm Integrator System (Visiopharm).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Animals were transcardially perfused with cold PBS. Brains were extracted and embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound on dry ice. Sections were cut at 20μm thickness on a cryostat. In situ hybridizations were performed using RNAscope 2.5 HD Assay-Red kit (322350, Advanced Cell Diagnostics) using a probe targeting the Il17ra transcript (Mm-Il17ra-O1, 566131, Advanced Cell Diagnostics). The probe was designed to target region 444–882 of the Il17ra transcript (NM_008359.2). Modifications to the kit protocol to improve adherence of tissue to the slide include an extension of fixation time to 30min and the addition of a humidified bake step at 40°C immediately prior to probe hybridization. Sections were counterstained with DAPI. Images were acquired using a confocal microscope (LSM710, Carl Zeiss) with a 10x or 20x objective lens. Il17ra and DAPI expression was quantified using QuPath30 (link). Cells were divided into the following categories based on level of Il17ra expression: low = 1–3 puncta, medium = >3–9 puncta, high = >9–15 puncta, highest = >15 puncta.

In-situ Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Replication

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the in-situ hybridization for SARS-CoV-2 on the FFPE materials of the lung specimens, two probes were used to detect infected cells and identify replicating viruses (positive/plus- and negative/minus-sense). Positive and negative controls were integrated to verify the correctness of the staining results (RNAscope Probe–V-nCoV2019-S and V-nCoV2019-S-sense, Positive Control Probe–Hs-UBC, Advanced Cell Diagnostics, Germany) RNAscope 2.5 HD Assay-RED kit (Advanced Cell Diagnostics, Germany) was used for realizing the hybridization of the probes and its visualization according to the manufacture’s protocols by manual technique on 5 μm thick FFPE sections.
RNA-ISH evaluation was performed on the same samples (lungs in all patients and for other organs, which were tested positive by RT-qPCR) as the immunohistochemical SARS-CoV-analysis. The classification scheme was also identical.

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.
