AMY1 copy numbers were measured in biobanked samples of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PBMCs were isolated by centrifuging fasting whole blood samples collected in BD Vacutainer® CPT™ cell preparation tubes with sodium citrate. The harvested PBMC pellet was resuspended in fetal bovine serum (FBS) with 10% dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) and stored at −80 °C until analysis. Genomic DNA from PBMCs was isolated using the Maxwell 16 Cell LEV DNA purification kit (Promega, Fitchburg, WI, USA), and its purity and concentration was assessed using a NanoDrop One spectrophotometer (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA, USA). AMY1 gene copy numbers were estimated by duplex quantitative real-time PCR (2qPCR) on a Life Technologies QuantStudio™ 12K Real-Time PCR system, with QuantStudio™ software version 1.2.2, with a protocol adapted from Falchi et al. [9 (link)], and analysed with CopyCallerR software version 2.1 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Each sample reaction consisted of two TaqMan CNV assays (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA); one specific for the target, AMY1 (Hs07226362_cn), and one specific for the reference gene (RNase P). Each sample was run in quadruplicate, and each run included an externally validated 14-copy control (NA18972, Coriell Cell Repositories, Camden, NJ, USA) along with a negative control.

Peripheral blood for gene expression and DNA methylation analyses was sampled simultaneously in Tempus Blood RNA Tubes (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and K2-EDTA tubes (Becton, Dickinson, and Company, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), respectively. Total RNA was isolated from the Tempus Blood RNA Tubes using the Preserved Blood RNA Purification Kit I (Norgen Biotek, Thorold, ON, Canada) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. DNAse treatment was carried out as recommended. The quality and concentration of the RNA were measured using the BioAnalyzer 6000 Nano kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and Qubit RNA HS (Thermo Fisher Scientific), with a mean RNA integrity number (RIN) of 9.2 and a concentration of 159 ng/μL. The total RNA samples were depleted for ribosomal RNA and globin transcripts with the Globin-Zero® Gold rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA).
DNA was isolated from the K2-EDTA tubes using the Maxwell 16 Cell LEV DNA Purification Kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The quality and concentration of the DNA were measured using Nanodrop (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Bisulfite conversion of DNA (500 ng) was done using the EZ-96 DNA Methylation-Gold Kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA from the primitive lesions in paraffin embedded tumors was extracted using the Maxwell16 FFPE plus LEV DNA purification Kit (Promega, Madison, USA). For CTC isolation, we followed the protocols described as the previous paper (25 (link)). Briefly, 5 mL peripheral blood from the patient’s vein was first lysed using red blood lysis buffer and then filtered through an 8 µM filter membrane. CTCs remained on the filter membrane, whereas white blood cells passed through the filter, after which, their DNA was extracted using the Maxwell 16 cell LEV DNA Purification kit (Promega, Madison, USA). The membrane with CTCs was hybridized using CanPatrolTM CTC RNAISH (SurExam Bio-Tech, Guangzhou, China) and identified. Then, confirmed CTCs were collected using a Palm Microbeam laser microdissection system and further enriched and amplified with the GenomePlex Single Cell. CTCs were classified as epithelial, mesenchymal, and mixed types according to their morphology and surface markers. Their graphs were shown as Figure 1. Whole Genome Amplification Kit (Sigma, USA). Finally, DNA fragments were obtained from amply and purification and were used for all subsequent experiments.

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.
