Genomic DNA was extracted from macrodissected paraffin sections using the Maxwell® RSC FFPE Plus DNA Purification Kit and the Maxwell® 16 Instrument (Promega, Madison, WI), according to the manufacturer's instructions. Microsatellite PCR in duplicates was performed using genomic DNA and AmpliTaq Gold DNA Polymerase (ThermoFisher) as well-fluorescent labeled primers (Sigma-Aldrich). For GeneScan analysis PCR products were mixed with sample loading solution (Beckman Coulter). The products were separated by capillary electrophoresis on the GenomeLab GeXP Genetic Analysis System and analyzed by the GenomeLab GeXP software 10.2 (Beckman Coulter).

For samples of the clinical test sets, tumour areas with the highest tumour cell content were identified using a light microscope (Olympus, BX46). From the tumour region of interest, the FFPE block was punched for DNA extraction. Semi-automated DNA extraction was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions (Maxwell RSC FFPE Plus DNA Purification Kit, Custom, Promega). DNA quantities were measured using Qubit HS DNA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific).

DNA methylation and copy number analyses were performed using the Infinium Methylation450k and EPIC BeadChip array platforms (Illumina, USA). All analyses were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In brief, DNA was extracted from FFPE tumor samples using the Maxwell RSC FFPE Plus DNA Purification Kit (Promega, USA). After bisulfite conversion using the Zymo EZ Methylation Kit (Zymo Research Irvine, USA), the Infinium HD FFPE DNA Restore Kit was used for DNA restoration. The beadchips were scanned on the iScan system (Illumina, USA). The unprocessed output data (.idat files) from the iScan reader were checked for general quality measures as indicated by the manufacturer. DNA methylation based classification was performed for both 450 k and 850 k data using the publically available “brain tumor classifier”, version v11b4 (https://www.molecularneuropathology.org/mnp) [7 (link)].

Genome-wide Methylation Analysis of AHRR and SFRP2 in HGSOC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For 16 randomly selected HGSOC samples from the survival cohort, for which IHC data for AHRR and SFRP2 were available, a genome-wide methylation analysis was performed as previously described [18 (link)]. Briefly, tumour areas were punched out from the FFPE block for DNA extraction. Semi-automated DNA extraction was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Maxwell RSC FFPE Plus DNA Purification Kit, Custom, Promega). DNA quantities were measured using Qubit HS DNA assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific). DNA restoration was performed using the Infinium HD FFPE DNA Restore Kit and methylation analysis was performed using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip. All methylation data pre-processing was conducted in R using various methods as implemented in the ChAMP package. Raw signals were loaded from the IDAT files using the minfi package [19 (link), 20 (link)]. A number of CpG sites were filtered out: all SNP-related sites; multi-hit sites; and CpGs located on chromosomes X and Y. Lastly, the beta values of the remaining CpG sites were normalised using FunNorm [21 (link)] followed by BMIQ [22 (link)]. Next, we selected the normalised beta values for CpGs that passed the above filters and extracted from the annotated file provided by the Illumina the CpGs mapped to AHRR (138 CpGs) and SFRP2 (41 CpGs) genes.

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.
