RNA-Seq Analysis of Mouse Transcriptome

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA was extracted via RNeasy column kit (QIAGEN) following the manufacturer’s directions. Only samples with an RNA integrity number of 6 or higher as assessed by analysis on an Agilent Bioanalyzer were considered for RNA-Seq analysis. Sequencing was performed by GENEWIZ using a standard sequencing pipeline. In short, 30 million to 50 million read depth was achieved, and sequences were trimmed using Trimmomatic v.0.36. STAR aligner v.2.5.2b was used to map reads to the Ensembl mouse reference genome, after which unique gene hit counts of interexon regions were determined using FeatureCounts from the Subread package v.1.5.2. Differential expression analysis was conducted using DeSEQ2 in R v.3.6. A cutoff of ±1.5-fold change with an FDR ≤ 0.1 was used to identify differentially expressed genes. A full list of differentially expressed genes is available in the supplement (Supplemental Table 3). PCA and PERMANOVA were conducted in Python 3.7 using the Scitkitlearn learn package. GSEA was performed using the MSigDB immune signatures database (53 (link)).

The right lung was homogenized and total RNA purified using a RNeasy Column kit (Qiagen, Germantown, MD). RNA quantity and purity was determined using a small volume spectrophotometer (Nanodrop; Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA). A total of 1 μg RNA was converted into cDNA using Super Script III First-strand amplification kit for qRT-PCR (Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY). Il17a and Il23a mRNA abundances were quantitated by real-time PCR (7300 Real-Time PCR Systems; Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA) using intron-spanning primers (Kasahara et al., 2012 (link); Mathews et al., 2014b (link)) and SYBR-green detection. Il17a and Il23a were normalized to 36b4 expression using ΔΔCt method (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001 (link)).

RNA Extraction from Zebrafish Embryos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Zebrafish embryos were injected with either PBCAB, NF-YA DN, GFP, or
antisense NF-YA DN mRNA as described above. At the desired timepoint,
embryos were collected into three biological replicates of 50–100
embryos per condition. Dead animals were counted, but excluded from RNA
extraction procedures. No other animals were excluded, and selection was not
blinded. Each sample was placed in 1mL of Trizol and frozen at
−80°C to help break up embryos. Once thawed, the embryos were
broken up by pipette and 250μL of chloroform was added to each sample
followed by vigorous shaking and a 3-minute incubation at room temperature.
The samples were then centrifuged at 12,000g for 15 minutes at 4°C
and th e aqueous phase was transferred to a new tube with 500mL of
isopropanol and 10μg of GlycoBlue (ThermoFisher Scientific). The
samples were vortexed, incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes, and
then centrifuged at 12,000g for 15 minutes at 4°C. The supernatant
was removed, and the pellet washed in 75% ethanol then centrifuged at 7,500g
for 5 minutes at room temperature. The supernatant was once again removed,
and the pellet was air-dried at room temperature for 10 minutes before
resuspension in 50μL of water. The samples were then further purified
and treated with DNase using the RNeasy Column kit (Qiagen) and eluted in
30μL of water.

Total RNA was extracted from rat organotypic hippocampal slices using the RNeasy column kit (Qiagen, Milano, Italy). Purified RNA (1 μg) was used for cDNA synthesis using reverse transcriptase (Promega, Milan, Italy). cDNAs were amplified by real-time PCR (iCycler; Bio-Rad) using iQ SYBER Green Supermix (Bio-Rad) . Specific sense and antisense primers were synthesized (Biogen, Rome, Italy) to PCR amplify the rat PK2, PKR1 and PKR2 cDNA, according to the following sequences previously described (Giannini et al., 2009) : PK2, 5′-CAAGGACTCTCAGTGTGGA-3′ and 5′-AAAATGGAACTTTCCGAGTC-3′; PKR1, 5′-CGCACCGTCTCCCTCTAC-3 and 5′-GTTTGACACTTCATCCGCG-3′; PKR2, 5′CTCCGTCAACTACCTTCGTA-3′ and 5′-GAGGCGGTCTGGTAATTCA-3′.
β-Actin was used as internal standard. Results are presented as the Ct (cycle threshold) values of the specific gene of interest or as input copy number of the gene of interest per ng of total RNA. cDNA standards for each analyzed gene were generated, and serial dilutions ranging from 10 to 10 9 input copies were used as a standard curve in each PCR run.

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.
