First telogen HFSCs from control and K15-CrePGR; Adrb2 fl/fl male mice were FACS sorted and collected into TRIzol® LS Reagent (Invitrogen). RNA was isolated with an RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen), using a QIAcube according to the manufacturer’s instructions. RNA concentration and RNA integrity were determined by Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA) using the RNA 6000 Nano chip. High quality RNA samples with RNA Integrity Number ≥ 8 were used as input for RT-PCR and RNA-sequencing. For Shh, Dhh, and Ihh quantitative real time PCR, newborn pups were used. The mouse back skin was dissected. The skin was incubated with 0.25% Collagenase (Sigma c2674) in Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) at 37°C for 20 – 35 minutes on an orbital shaker. The dermal side was scraped, and cells were collected and incubated for 10 minutes in trypsin-EDTA at 37°C to generate a single cell suspension. The remaining tissue was incubated in trypsin-EDTA at 37°C and scraped again. All cells were collected together and filtered through 70-μm and 40-μm filters. Single cell suspensions were then centrifuged for 8 minutes at 350g at 4°C and re-suspended in TRIzol® LS Reagent (Invitrogen). RNA isolation was performed using ZYMO RESEARCH Direct-Zol RNA Micro-Prep kit (zr2060) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

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.
