After aspirate media, 1 mL of TRIzol (Thermo Fisher) was directly added to the cells to extract total RNA following the manufacture protocol TRIzol reagent. DNase treatment was performed at 37°C for 35 min to degrade residue genomic DNA after TRIzol RNA isolation with 4 units of Turbo DNase (Thermo Fisher). Following the DNase treatment, RNA was purified again using phenol-chloroform pH 4.5 (VWR). RNA concentrations were measured using a Nanodrop 2000c (Thermo Fisher). cDNA was synthesized using 1 μg of DNA-free total RNA. The reverse transcription used 1 μL of 30 μM random hexamers (IDT) and 200 units of Promega M-MLV reverse transcriptase (Promega) in a 20 μL reaction following the Promega protocol. The completed 20 μL cDNA reactions were diluted with 180 μL of nuclease free H2O (1:9) as the working concentration.

Salivary tissues and midguts were preserved in TRIzol (Thermo-Fisher, Waltham, MA). Salivary glands were excised as described by Cicero and Brown [67 (link)] in pools of 150 per replicate in TRIzol LS (Thermo-Fisher, Waltham, MA). Samples were kept at −80°C (bioreps 1–3, CLas (-/+) were kept one year, while replicate 4, both CLas (-/+), was kept for two years) prior to RNA extraction. Total RNA was extracted for both midguts and salivary glands following the standard TRIzol (Thermo-Fisher, Waltham, MA) RNA extraction protocol [68 (link)] including light syringe disruption prior to adding ethanol, and DNase treatment to purify total RNA. Total RNA quality was tested using an RNA gel prior to library preparation. Details of midgut sample handling can be found in Kruse et al. [16 (link)].
Illumina (San Diego, CA) libraries for all samples were made by Polar Genomics LLC (Ithaca, NY) following the protocol of Zhong et al. [69 (link)] and included poly-A tailed mRNA enrichment. Libraries were shipped on dry ice to GENEWIZ (Azenta Life Sciences, Plainfield, NJ), where they were pooled for Illumina (San Diego, CA) paired-end (PE) 150 bp sequencing. Bacteriome, head, and salivary gland samples were sequenced separately from the previously published midgut samples [16 (link)]. Raw data have been uploaded to NCBI and are accessible to reviewers via BioProject accession No. PRJNA385527.

Collected NSCLC cells were lysed by 1 ml of TRIzol (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). Following lysis, total RNA was extracted using the phenol-chloroform method (27 (link)). The purity of RNA was determined by UV A260/A280 spectrophotometry (Nanodrop ND2000; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.). cDNA was then obtained by reverse transcription from 1 µg RNA using miScript II RT kit (Qiagen GmbH) and stored at −20°C. RT-qPCR was performed using SYBR Green PCR kit.

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.
