Stress Response Tests in Drosophila

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Heat stress tests were conducted at 37°C or 38.5°C in a hybridization oven (Thermo Electron, ThermoFischer Scientific, Reinach, Switzerland). The flies were raised at 25°C in bottles under optimal crowding conditions. Males were separated from females upon eclosion, staged for 3 days and transferred into empty plastic vials (no more than 30 flies per vial). The vials were sealed with foam plugs soaked in water to mimic a humid environment. The knockdown was scored over time. Both males and females performed equally; data presented for Rictor and Sin1 alleles are for males. For comparison to wild type, the Rictor precise excision allele was shown to perform similarly to the y w and Canton S strains. Oxidative stress (with 5% H2O2) and starvation tests were conducted as described previously (Jünger et al., 2003 (link)). Flies were collected as for heat stress tests.

Overnight cultures of E. faecalis OG1RF, EFC3C, and EFC3Py were normalized to OD600 = 0.5 in phosphate buffer saline (PBS, pH 7.4). COE1-3C or COE1-3Py was added to the cultures at the following concentrations: wild type E. faecalis OG1RF (1 and 0.5 μM, respectively), EFC3C (1 and 0.5 μM, respectively), and EFC3Py (4 μM of each), incubated for 60 min at 37°C and followed by addition of 10 μg/mL FMTM 4-64FX (ThermoFisher Scientific). After staining, the cells were washed three times in PBS, and 20 μL of cells was spotted onto poly-L-lysine coated slides (Sigma–Aldrich), dried at 46°C in a hybridization oven (ThermoFisher Scientific) for 15 min, mounted with Vectashield mounting medium (Vecalotor Laboratories, Inc.), and imaged using a Zeiss Axio Observer Z1 fitted with a 100×/1.30 oil immersion objective (Carl Zeiss, Göttingen, Germany).
Quantification of fluorescence distribution along the cell was performed using PSICIC (Guberman et al., 2008 (link)). Cells with a perimeter > 4.8 μm and ≤ 8 μm were defined as early division cells (Kandaswamy et al., 2013 (link)) and chosen for the quantitation of the fluorescence of FM4-64 and COEs. Fluorescence intensity along the circumference of the cell was plotted against the cell perimeter coordinates of 1–100 units to generate a fluorescence distribution profile. Quantitative analysis was performed in two independent experiments.

For mRNA analysis, the array (OE BioTech) was performed using an Agilent expression profile gene chip (Agilent Technologies, Inc.). Two samples were allocated to the control and pressure groups. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol® reagent (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) according to the manufacturer's protocol and quantified using NanoDrop 2000 (NanoDrop Technologies; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), and detected with an Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies, Inc.). The Quick Amp Labeling kit (One-Color; Agilent Technologies, Inc.) was used to reverse transcribe total RNA to double-stranded cDNA, prepare the label reaction and transcribe cRNAs from cDNAs, all according to the manufacturer's protocol. Subsequently, an RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen GmbH) was used to purify the labeled/amplified RNAs and quality control-labeled cRNAs. Each slide was hybridized with cyanine 3-labeled RNA using the Agilent Gene Expression Hybridization kit (Agilent Technologies, Inc.) in a Hybridization Oven (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) at 65°C for 17 h. After hybridization, slides were washed in staining dishes with Gene Expression Wash Buffer kit (Agilent Technologies, Inc.). Slides were scanned using the Agilent Microarray Scanner (Agilent Technologies, Inc.) and analyzed using the Feature Extraction software (version 10.7; Agilent Technologies, Inc.) with default settings.

The purified RNA was used to construct cDNA libraries by using TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) according to manufacturer’s instruction. Following first and second cDNA strands synthesis, samples were then amplified and transcribed into fluorescent cRNA. The labeled cRNAs were further purified, and reverse transcribed to 2nd-cycle cDNA. After purification and fragmentation, 2nd-cycle cDNA was then labeled. The hybridization solution mixed with labeled cDNA, hybridization buffer and other buffers was divided into the gasket slide and arranged on the lncRNA expression microarray slide. The slides were incubated in Hybridization Oven (Affymetrix) at the temperature of 45 °C for 16 h.

GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA), consisting of 764,885 probe sets covering over 28,869 genes, was used to evaluate genes differentially expressed. The whole hybridization procedure was performed following the Affymetrix instructions. The amplification and labeling processes were verified using a GeneChip Eukaryotic Poly-A RNA Control Kit (Affymetrix) with exogenous positive controls. 15 µg of each biotinylated cRNA preparation was fragmented and placed in hybridization mixture containing biotinylated hybridization controls (GeneChip Expression Hybridization Controls, Affymetrix). Samples were then hybridized onto a GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Array at 45 °C for 16 hours at constant rotation (60 rpm) in a Hybridization Oven (Affymetrix). Microarray scanned images were obtained with a GeneChip Scanner (Affymetrix) using the default settings. Images were analyzed with Affymetrix Gene Expression Analysis Software (Affymetrix). Comparisons were made between FRO-EV-1 and FRO-CBX7-1 samples, considering FRO-EV-1 as baseline. The fold change values, indicating the relative change in the expression levels between FRO-EV-1 and FRO-CBX7-1, were used to identify genes differentially expressed.

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.
