Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
DNA of the dilution series was fragmented by sonication using Covaris Sonalab 7.1 S220 [Covaris, Woburn, MA, USA] (80 s, peak power 140.0, duty factor 10.0, cycles/burst 200, power ~ 12, temp below 12 °C). Shearing results were checked by electrophoresis using an Agilent D1000 screen tape [Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA]. The mean size of the fragmented DNA was ~300 bp. Sample preparation was performed using the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina sequencing [New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA, USA] using an input amount of 1 µg DNA in 50 µl Tris-EDTA. NEB adapters were substituted for unique molecular identifier (UMI) TruSeq dual-index duplex adapters (15 µM) [Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT), Coralville, IA, USA], and USER enzyme steps were skipped. UMIs are used to remove duplicate reads and reduce the error rate during the data-analysis procedure. A size-selection to 300–400 bp using AMPure XP Beads [Beckman Coulter, Indianapolis, IN, USA] was performed after adding adapters. IDT xGen Library Amplification primers (5 µM p5 and 5 µM p7) were used to enrich the adapter-ligated DNA using PCR (12 cycles). The amplified product was measured by electrophoresis using the Agilent High Sensitivity D1000 screen tape after cleanup with AMPure XP Beads.

Total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN). RNA concentration and purity were assessed by a NanoDrop Spectrophotometer. RNA integrity number (RIN) was assessed with the TapeStation. Libraries were prepared from 1 μg of RNA using Illumina Stranded mRNA Prep (Illumina). Library concentration and quality were measured using the Qubit dsDNA HS Assay kit (Life Technologies) and Agilent High Sensitivity D1000 ScreenTape (Agilent Technologies). RNA sequencing was performed by Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform for paired-end sequencing, 150-bp read length, for ∼20 million raw reads per sample. Data analysis according to RNA sequencing FASTQ files was processed with HISAT2 Aligner in default mode with the Ensembl human transcriptome annotation (Build version GRCh38 and transcript annotation GRCh38.89). Differential gene expression analysis was performed using DESeq2 software (version 1.34.0), using an expression analysis cutoff above 1 Fragment Per Kilobase of transcript per Million mapped reads (FPKM). The fold transcript level changes (represented by FPKM) were calculated from of a list of 78 genes related to the apoptosis process (GO: 0006915) comparing paclitaxel- and vehicle-treated PDOs. The fold induction of the genes in chemo-sensitive HCI-002 versus chemo-resistant HCI-001 PDOs was calculated to establish the rank list (Figure 1c).

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.
