The complementary DNA was prepared with High-Capacity Complementary DNA Archive kits (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Villebon-sur-Yvette, France, ref. 4368813). Transcripts levels of genes involved in inflammation and pain transduction were quantified in the StepOne real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system using a SYBR Green PCR master mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific, ref. 4385612). Relative messenger RNA (mRNA) levels were determined using the ΔΔCt method and the values were normalized to the expression of PolR2a for mice and Gapdh for rats.52 Primer sequences are available upon request.

Isolation and Cloning of Human Antibody Variable Regions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA and gDNA were prepared either using the “NucleoSpin Tissue” and “NucleoSpin RNA II” kits (Macherey–Nagel, Düren, Germany) or the “RNeasy Plus Mini” kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Messenger RNA (mRNA) from LCLs was reverse transcribed using the “SuperScript III” kit (Life Technologies). Human heavy chain and light chain variable regions (Vh and Vl regions) from LCLs were recovered as described before, with minor modifications [23 (link)]. Our approach differed in that mRNA from B cell clusters instead of from single cells was used. Moreover, (1) a re-amplification step with the primer set for the first PCRs was included and (2) these sequences were cloned into a TopoVector (pCR®II-TOPO®, Life Technologies) in order to be able to remove potential endogenous cleavage sites. All kits were used according to the manufacturers’ instructions.

Total RNA was purified from the bilateral frontal cerebral cortex and right inferior lobe of lung using Nucleospin® RNA II Kits (Macherey-Nagel, Duren, Germany) in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. First-strand cDNA synthesis and qRT-PCR were performed using a One Step TB Green PrimeScript™ RT-PCR Kit II (Takara Bio, Shiga, Japan). Subsequently, qRT-PCR assays were conducted using a Thermal Cycler Dice Real-Time System II TP 900 (Takara Bio). The primers for mouse 18S rRNA and IL-6 genes were purchased from Qiagen (Valencia, CA; Catalog Numbers: 18S mouse, QT02448075; IL-6 mouse, QT00098875). The primers targeting IL-1β and TNFα were purchased from Invitrogen (CA, USA) and the primer targeting IL-1α was purchased from FASMAC (Kanagawa, Japan). The primer sequences utilized were the following: IL-1α 5′-AAGACAAGCCTGTGTTGCTGAAGG-3′ (forward) and 5′-TCCCAGAAGAAAATGAGGTCGGTC-3′ (reverse); IL-1β 5′-CGACAAAATACCTGTGGCCT-3′ (forward) and 5′-TTCTTTGGGTATTGCTTGGG-3′ (reverse); TNFα 5′-TCGTAGCAAACCACCAAGTG-3′ (forward) and 5′-CCTTGAAGAGAACCTGGGAGT-3′ (reverse). The delta CT method was used to calculate the relative fold change of targeted genes. For each target mRNA, the fold changes in expression were calculated relative to those of 18S rRNA, and the value of treated group was normalized that of each control group.

Total RNA was isolated from hippocampi with phenol-chloroform extraction using PureZol (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) followed by clean-up using NucleoSpin RNA II kits (Machery-Nagel, Düren, Germany) according to manufacturers’ instructions. RNA quantity was measured using a Synergy Plate reader equipped with a Take-3 plate (Bio-Tek, Winooski, VT, USA) and 1 µg from each sample was used to generate cDNA using the iScript reverse transcription Supermix kit (Bio-Rad) using a C1000 Thermal Cycler (Bio-Rad). Selected RNA samples were run without reverse polymerase as a control to ensure no contamination from genomic DNA. Primer were designed using the PrimerQuest software (Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA, USA; Table 1). Gene expression was quantified using SsoAdvanced Universal SYBR green (Bio-Rad) quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) on a CFX96 Real-Time PCR detection system (Bio-Rad). Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was used as a reference gene. Data were analyzed using the comparative threshold cycle method with results expressed as fold change versus young + vehicle rats.

Ileum Total RNA Extraction Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated from ileum at 35 and 49 days of age (n = 57 rabbits) as previously described36 (link). Ileum samples were homogenized and grounded to a fine powder by rapid agitation for 1 min in a liquid-nitrogen cooled grinder with stainless steel beads. An aliquot of 100 mg of the fine powder was then processed for total RNA isolation and purification using Trizol (Invitrogen, France) and the Nucleospin RNA II kit (Macherey–Nagel, France) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The method included a DNase digestion step to remove contaminating DNA. The extracted total RNA was eluted in 70 μl of RNase-free water and stored at − 80 °C. RNA quality and concentration were controlled using an AGILENT 2100 bioanalyzer (RNA solutions and RNA 6000 Nano Lab- Chip Kit, Agilent Technologies France, Massy, France).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Polysome profiling experiments were performed according to Verrier and Jean-Jean [29 (link)] with minor modifications. Three days after electroporation, two 100-mm plates of either HCT116 or HEK293 cells at 70% cell confluence were used for polysome fractionation. Cell extracts were loaded onto 15–50% sucrose gradients and subjected to ultracentrifugation. After centrifugation, optical density (O. D.) at 254 nm was monitored by pumping the gradient through a Retriever 500 (Teledyne Isco) fraction collector. The flow rate was optimized in order to collect ~15 fractions of 0.8 mL each. Afterward, each fraction was precipitated with 1.2 mL of isopropanol and kept at −80°C for further RNA analysis. For RNA isolation, the polysomal fractions of the sucrose gradients (Figure 1) were subjected to centrifugation at 18,000 × g for 1 hr, then the pellets were rinsed with 1 mL of 80% ethanol, dried and resuspended in 350 μl of RAI buffer of NucleoSpin RNA II kit (Macherey-Nagel) containing 1% ß-mercaptoethanol (v/v). RNA was purified according to the manufacturer's instructions and eluted in 40 μl of RNase-free water.

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.
