Cell Cycle Analysis by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell cycle analyses were carried out by flow cytometry with propidium iodide (PI) (P4864, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). Cells (106) were seeded into 10 cm culture dishes and treated with GA IC50 for 24 h or with the vehicle DMSO as control. Cells were then fixed with ice-cold 70% ethanol on ice and stained with 0.04 mg/mL PI and 0.1 mg/mL ribonuclease A (19101, Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Cell cycle distribution was determined by an analytical DNA flow cytometer (FACSVerse, BD Biosciences) with instrument settings on low mode and FlowJo software v10.

For DNA content analysis, ~1×106 cells were resuspended in PBS, and fixed in cold 70% ethanol for 30 min at 4°C. Fixed fibroblasts were washed twice with PBS and treated 15 min at RT with ribonuclease A (5 μg/mL, Qiagen), with subsequent staining with propidium iodide (500 ng/mL, Sigma-Aldrich). Cells were analyzed by flow cytometry using FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences) and the FlowJo software. FUCCI cells were similarly analyzed by FACS using the EGFP and DsRed indicator proteins. Mitogen stimulation of lymphocytes was performed by the Diagnostic Immunology Laboratory at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital as part of medical care due to the history of recurrent infections.

Genomic DNA was extracted from cells treated with lentiviral particles expressing shCon, shMRE11, or shNBS1 using the QIAGEN DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (reference 69504), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To avoid RNA contamination, extracts were treated with ribonuclease A (QIAGEN, 19101) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Equal amounts of DNA were used for library preparation. Whole-genome sequencing was performed by Novogene, Cambridge, UK.

Gut Microbiome Analysis via 16S rDNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The bacterial 16S rDNA gene of the stool was analyzed via a TIANamp Stool DNA Extraction Kit (TIANGEN Biotechnology, China) with Ribonuclease A (QIAGEN, Germany). We measured the purity and concentrations of the DNA through NanoDrop 1000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The primer sequences were used as follows: 341F primer: 5′-CCTAYGGGRBGCASCAG-3′, and 806R primer: 5′-GGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT-3′. Then, we constructed an amplicon sequencing library and performed sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). The data filtering, detection, and detachment of chimeric sequences were fulfilled by the Quantitative Insights Into Microbial Ecology (QIIME) pipeline (2019.07) and UCHIME algorithm, respectively. Sequences with similarities greater than 97% were defined as the same operational taxonomic unit (OTU) through UPARSE. Mothur and SSU data sets of the SILVA rRNA Database were applied for species annotation with a confidence threshold of 0.8. The analysis of sequencing data on the alpha and beta diversities was fulfilled by QIIME and R. According to the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) gene function spectrum data, the overall metabolic function of the flora was converted and calculated, which was presented as a differentiated KEGG pathway analysis.

FISH Probe Labeling and RNA Exclusion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HPV16-specific probes were purchased from PanPath, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. BAC-clones, used for colocalization experiments, were grown according to the manufacturer's instructions (BACPAC Resources Centre, Childrens Hospital Oakland Research Institute, Oakland, USA). DNA was isolated using the Nucleobond BAC-100 kit (BioKé, Leiden, the Netherlands). Probes for centromeres (CEPs) 1, 3 and 9 were available in our lab, previously described in Hopman et al. 25 (link). Probes and clones were labelled using either the Dig-nick translation kit or the Biotin-nick translation kit (Roche, Basel, Switzerland), according to the manufacturer's instructions. Labelled CEP probes for CEP17 and CEPX were kindly provided by the Department of Clinical Genetics, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands. To exclude possible hybridization to RNA transcripts cells were treated with 10 ng/ml ribonuclease A (Qiagen) in a control experiment.

Genomic DNA was isolated from sterile mouse liver to quantify bacterial 16S. The liver was homogenized in 1 mL sterile Hanks' balanced salt solution without calcium/magnesium/phenol red (14175; Thermo Fisher Scientific) using lysing matrix C tubes (MP116912; MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA) and a Mini‐BeadBeater‐96 (GlenMills, Clifton, NJ). This was followed by digestion with ribonuclease A (19101; Qiagen, Valencia, CA), 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate (L3771; Sigma‐Aldrich) and proteinase K (Am2546; Thermo Fisher Scientific) at 55°C for 1 hour. After adding phenol (15513; Thermo Fisher Scientific), suspensions were transferred to individual lysing matrix B tubes (MP116911; MP Biomedicals) and homogenized. The lysate was then extracted 3 times using phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol (15593; Thermo Fisher Scientific) and once with chloroform with the addition of sodium acetate buffer solution (S7899; Sigma‐Aldrich). DNA was finally precipitated and washed with ethanol and resuspended in sterile water (BP561; Thermo Fisher Scientific). The 16S ribosomal RNA gene was amplified using established primers (forward, 5′‐GTG STG CAY GGY TGT CGT CA‐3′; reverse, 5′‐ACG TCR TCC MCA CCT TCC TC‐3′),23 and then gene expression was normalized to host 18S.

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.
