Differentially expressed genes of the HBF + BPA group were selected based on P < 0.05 and a fold-change greater than 2, when compared with the HBF-alone group. Functional enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes was performed using the knowledge-based Ingenuity Pathways Analysis (IPA) (Qiagen, www.qiagen.com/ingenuity).

Quantitative mRNA Expression Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total mRNA was isolated from brains and spinal cords using the Qiagen RNeasy lipid kit. RNA concentration was estimated using Nanodrop (Thermo scientific). 3′UTR probes were cloned from WT brain or spinal cord genomic DNA into a TOPO-TA (Invitrogen) vector by PCR. Digoxigenin-labeled antisense RNA 3′UTR probes were generated through in vitro transcription (Roche). RNA and an RNA ladder (Invitrogen) were run on formaldehyde gels (Ambion) for 2–3 h, then transferred upright for 4 h to N+ nylon membrane. RNA was crosslinked with a stratalinker, then the membrane was pre-hybridized with Ambion hybridization solution at 68°C. Probe was denatured and added to hybridization solution, and hybridization was carried out overnight. After membrane washings, CDP-Star development solution was used to detect bound probe. Membranes were exposed to X-ray film and developed.

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.
