Cell to ct lysis buffer

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The Cell-to-Ct lysis buffer is a reagent used for the direct lysis of cells in preparation for gene expression analysis. It is designed to facilitate the rapid and efficient extraction of RNA from cells, enabling direct downstream applications such as real-time PCR without the need for a separate RNA isolation step.

5 × 104 were lysed with 50 μl of Cell-to-Ct lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher). cDNA was directly synthesized from cell lysates with the Cell-to-Ct Kit (Thermo Fisher). Quantitative real-time PCR was performed with TaqMan Gene Expression Assays (Applied Biosystems) on a 7500 Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). β-actin was used as housekeeping gene.

Transcriptome Analysis of Cultured Cumulus Cells

After oocyte retrieval, the cumulus cells were mechanically stripped from the oocyte and isolated. Corona cells were removed with hyaluronidase, and mature oocytes were fertilized via intracytoplasmic sperm injection. The cumulus cells associated with these mature oocytes were lysed using cellto-CT lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was removed by DNase treatment, and the resulting 30 mL lysate was stored at À80 C. Embryos were individually cultured to maintain embryo identity, ensuring that the cumulus cell transcriptome for a particular oocyte would be appropriately correlated with the pregnancy outcome for its associated embryo. Embryos were assessed on day 5 and 6 and graded using the blastocyst scoring system developed by Gardner and Schoolcraft (31) . All embryos in this analysis underwent trophectoderm biopsy for PGS at the blastocyst stage on day 6 prior to vitrification.

Mammary glands from pellet-bearing mice were harvest and digested with Collagenase/Hyaluronidase (Stem Cell Technologies). Digested tissue was further treated with 5X Tripsin (Life Technologies) for 5 minutes. Nuclei were isolated using sucrose gradient (Yamaji et al., 2013 (link)) and lysed with 30μl of Cell-To-Ct lysis buffer (Ambion). cDNA synthesis was performed according to manufacturer’s instructions. Real-time PCR were performed on a 7900 Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). Gene-specific primers were designed using Primer Express (Applied Biosystems) and qPCR reactions were performed using SYBR Green. Gapdh mRNA was used as endogenous control.

Single-cell transcriptomics of cardiomyocytes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Freshly isolated adult (~3-month old) cardiomyocytes and mCPCs (derived from GFP-cardiomyocytes) were captured using microfludic chip (Fig. 1f)41 (link)108 (link). The adult cardiomyocytes were used as controls. Briefly, isolated adult cardiomyocytes were preserved in EGTA-free KB solution9 (link), while mCPCs were kept in cold PBS during microfludic separation. Single-cells were isolated by encapsulation in droplet using a microfluidic device as described previously108 (link)109 (link). Once individual cells were isolated and verified under microscope, each was lysed with 2 μl of a customized buffer for whole genomic amplification for transcriptomic profiling. Alternatively, 5 μl Cell-to-Ct lysis buffer supplemented with DNase I (Ambion) was used to lyse each single cell for the validation of gene expression by Real-Time TaqMan single qPCR assays or by TLDA qPCR array.

Oocyte and Sperm RNA Isolation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Oocytes and cumulus cells were processed in Cell-to-Ct lysis buffer as recommended (Ambion, #4 458 236, Grand Island, USA) and stored in liquid nitrogen. Discarded sperm samples were pelleted and washed in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) prior to RNA collection.

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.
