Telomere Length Measurement by Southern Blot

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Telomere length was measured by Southern blot previously described [26 (link)] and was conducted at RERF. In brief, genomic DNA was isolated from leukocytes using a DNA isolation kit (Qiagen) and digested with HinfI and RsaI (NEB). Digested DNA was separated on a 0.6% agarose gel by electrophoresis. The hybridization was performed with a [32 P] end-labeled oligonucleotide (TTAGGG)4 probe, at 45°C overnight. The images were acquired by a phosphor imager (Typhoon 9410; GE Biosciences). Mean telomere length (terminal restriction fragment, TRF) was calculated at the NIA in an observer blind manner.

Verteporfin was administered intravenously in four animals at 1 mg/kg (active
benzoporphyrin derivative sensitizer dose) immediately after imaging and animals were
sacrificed 60 minutes post-injection. Following euthanasia, the pancreas and surrounding
tissue were removed and frozen. Ex vivo, 2.5-mm thick tissue slices were
obtained using an in-house built acrylic tissue matrix, starting approximately 5 mm from
the rostral aspect of the tumor and moving in the caudal direction. Slices were placed
directly on a fluorescence scanning system (Typhoon 9410, GE Healthcare) and fluorescence
was measured using 633 nm excitation and a 685 nm long-pass filter for emission
collection. After imaging, the tissue slices were fixed in 10% buffered formalin,
processed using standard procedure, and then embedded in paraffin. After embedding,
4-micron-thick tissue slices were obtained, stained with hematoxylin and eosin
(H&E), and mounted on slides. Slides were examined using a light microscope (BX50,
Olympus America Inc., Center Valley, PA) and images of the microscope field of view were
acquired with a CCD camera (Insight 2.0 color, SPOT Imaging Solutions, Sterling Heights,
MI). One set of images was discarded due to poor quality, and the remaining three sets of
micrographs were analyzed. Fluorescence imaging data is presented in relative fluorescence
units (RFU).

RNA Oligonucleotide Purification and Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Reagents were obtained and used as received. DNA templates and primers were obtained from Integrated DNA Technologies. The RNA oligonucleotide competitors and precursor RNAs, obtained from Dharmacon, were 2′-ACE-protected (where ACE is 2′-bis(acetoxyethoxy)-methyl ether) and were deprotected according to the manufacturer’s protocol. All RNAs were desalted using PD10 Sephadex (GE Healthcare) columns by first pre-equilibrating the column with 25 ml water, then loading the RNA and eluting with 10 ml water, collecting 1 ml fractions. Autoradiography images were obtained using a Typhoon 9410 variable mode imager (GE Healthcare) and quantified using Quantity One (Bio-Rad) software. All UV-vis measurements for RNA quantification were obtained using a Beckman Coulter DU800 UV-vis spectrophotometer by heating the RNA to 90 °C and measuring the absorption at 260 nm. Complementary DNA (cDNA) samples were quantified using an Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer (Model: G1939A) and an Invitrogen Qubit 2.0 Fluorimeter. Subsequent sequencing was carried out on a Life Technologies Ion Proton sequencer with at least 200-fold coverage. EGM-2 Bullet Kit tissue culture medium obtained from Lonza (CC-3162) was used to grow HUVECs directly. All cells were cultured at 37°C in 5% CO2 in 100-mm-diameter dishes unless stated otherwise.

Native PAGE Analysis of NLP Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Equal mass aliquots of NLP samples (1.5 μg) were diluted with 2x native gel sample buffer (Invitrogen) and loaded onto 4–12% gradient pre-made Tris-glycine gels (Invitrogen). Samples were electrophoresed for 2 hrs. at a constant 125 V. After electrophoresis, gels were incubated with SYPRO Ruby protein gel stain (Bio-Rad) for 2 hours and then de-stained using 10% Methanol, 7% Acetic acid. Following a brief wash with ddH2O, gels were imaged using the green laser (532 nm) of a Typhoon 9410 (GE Healthcare) with a 610 nm bandpass 30 filter. Molecular weights were determined by comparing migration vs. log molecular weight of standard proteins found in the NativeMark standard (Invitrogen).

Crude and high abundant protein depleted plasma and serum samples were separated in two dimensions using the GE Life Sciences Ettan DIGE system protocol. Briefly, each sample (50 μg) was minimally labeled with 1 μl of 200 pM Cy2, Cy3 or Cy5 for 30 minutes. Labeling reactions were stopped by the addition of 1 μl of 1 mM lysine. The samples were pooled together and added to rehydration buffer (7 M urea, 2 M thiourea, 4% CHAPS, 1.2% DeStreak, 1% pharmalytes). A final volume of 450 μl sample was loaded onto 24 cm pH 3–10NL Immobiline DryStrips (GE Life Sciences) and focused by active overnight rehydration, followed by isoelectric focusing for a total of 62,500 Vhrs. Strips were equilibrated in SDS equilibration buffer (6 M urea, 30% glycerol, 2% SDS) for 15 min with 10 mg/ml DTT, then 15 min in fresh buffer with 25 mg/ml 15 min with IAA, then applied to DIGE gels (GE Life Sciences) for 2nd dimension separation. The resulting CyDye labeled protein gels were scanned using 100 micron resolution on Typhoon 9410 (GE Life Sciences).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mapping was carried out using X. laevis histone octamers with the H3(C110A) substitution to remove the naturally occurring cysteine, along with an H2B(S53C) substitution. After labeling nucleosomes with APB (41 (link)), sliding reactions were carried out in 1× slide buffer (20 mM HEPES–KOH, pH 7.6; 50 mM KCl; 5 mM MgCl2; 0.1 mg/ml BSA; 10 mM DTT; 5% sucrose) using 150 nM nucleosome, 50 nM remodeler and 2 mM ATP. In reactions with nucleosomes containing LacO(+1) and LacO(−11) sites, LacI was added at a 5-fold molar excess over nucleosomes (750 nM), whereas for LacO(−6)-containing nucleosomes, LacI was added at a 32-fold molar excess (4.8 μM). After UV irradiation and processing (41 (link)), samples were separated on 8% polyacrylamide (19:1), 8M urea sequencing gels run at 65 W and visualized on a GE Typhoon 9410 variable mode imager. Rates of nucleosome sliding were calculated by fitting the fraction of shifted versus unshifted nucleosomes to the single-exponential function y = a*(e−k*x) + c, where the fit parameters were a (normalized amplitude), c (constant), and k (rate constant, min−1).

The samples were analyzed on precast 15% TBE-urea polyacrylamide gels (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). 5 µL of sample was mixed with 5 µL of loading buffer and heated for 5 minutes at 95°C. The sample was then loaded into the gel and run for either 30 min or 50 min at 300V. The separated gels were scanned using a Typhoon 9410 variable mode imager (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ).

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.
