Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The expression of ATIP isoforms was determined in SACC cell lines (SACC-83), 3 pairs of frozen parotid adenoid cystic carcinoma samples and normal parotid tissue samples using ATIP isoform-specific real time RT-PCR assays, as previously described [22 (link)]. In brief, total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen, GER). First-strand cDNA was synthesized with MLV-RT (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) using random hexamer primers (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). ATIP isoform-specific real time RT-PCR was performed using exon-specific primer pairs corresponding to 5 ATIP isoforms (ATIP1, ATIP2, ATIP3a, ATIP3b and ATIP4) [22 (link)]. All reactions were performed in triplicate. Melting curve analyses were performed to ensure the specificity of the real time RT-PCR reactions. The data analysis was performed using a modified 2-delta delta Ct method, with PPIA (peptidylprolyl isomerase A) as an internal reference. The clinical material for each category (i.e., PE and PACC) was provided in Additional file 4: Table S3. The relative copy numbers of each ATIP isoform were calculated as described by Benedetto [4 (link)] and shown in Additional file 5: Table S4.

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.
