RT-qPCR for Immune Gene Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis was adopted to validate immunity-related gene expression patterns from RNA-seq results. RNA samples were prepared using the same method we described above. A total of 2 μg of RNA was reverse transcribed using PrimeScriptTM RT Master Mix (Takara, Shiga, Japan) and RT-qPCR was performed on an ABI 7300 Real-Time PCR System (United States) using GoTaq RT-qPCR Master Mix (Promega, Madison, WI, United States). All samples obtained at different timepoints have corresponding Tween controls. Three biological replications were conducted for each treatment. Four technical replications were done for each sample in RT-qPCR. PCR conditions consisted of 94°C for 5 s, followed by 40 cycles of 59°C for 20 s and 72°C for 20 s. The primers used are described in Supplementary Table 1. The RPS15 gene was used as the reference gene (Luo et al., 2018 ; Lü et al., 2018 (link)). Data were collected, exported to EXCEL, and analyzed by the 2–ΔΔCt method (Schmittgen and Livak, 2008 (link)). The mean Ct value of four technical replications in each sample was used for the gene expression analysis, and the relative expression level of each treatment was the average of the three biological replications.

Total RNA was isolated using Trizol (Sigma-Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany), complementary DNA was synthesized using Ready-To-Go-You-Prime-First-Strand Beads (GE Healthcare (VWR), Bruchsal, Germany) and RT-qPCR performed using GoTaq RT-qPCR Master Mix (Promega, Mannheim, Germany) and Eppendorf fluorescence thermocyclers (Eppendorf, Wesseling-Berzdorf, Germany), all following manufacturers' instructions. The 2ΔΔCT method was used to quantify amplified fragments. Expression levels were normalized using at least one housekeeping gene (rps29 and/or rpl4). The sequence of the qPCR primers can be found in ref. 47 (link). The sequences of the primers used for CD44 are: 5′-GCACTGTGACTCATGGATCC-3′ present in exon 16 and 5′-GCACTGTGACTCATGGATCC-3′ in exons 17–18.

Cells total RNA was extracted with TRIzol reagent (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). 1 ug of RNA was reverse transcribed to cDNA using the GoScript Reverse Transcription System (Promega, USA). Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was carried out by the Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time PCR System using the GoTaq RT-qPCR Master Mix (Promega, A6001). We chose GAPDH to normalize TFAP2A and PD-L1 expression levels. Relative gene expression was calculated using the 2-ΔΔCt method. All the sequences of qPCR primers were shown in Supplementary Table 1.

Gene expression was analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and the primers used in this study (Table 1) were designed using the Primer3 online tool (https://primer3.ut.ee/http://bioinfo.ut.ee/primer3–0.4.0/) and the sequences of the identified fragments. The qPCR assay was performed using CFX96 Touch™ Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad, United States) and GoTaq® RT-qPCR Master Mix (Promega, United States). The amplification conditions were 95°C for 10 min, 40 cycles at 95°C for 15 s, and 60°C for 60 s, followed by the requirements needed to calculate the melting curve. The 2–ΔΔCT method was used to normalize the fold change in gene expression using actb as a reference gene for normalization (Yang et al., 2013 (link)).

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.
