The total RNA was isolated from cells using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Barcelona, Spain), following the manufacturer’s recommendations. Complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized using the iScript advanced cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA). cDNA was amplified with SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems, Glasgow, UK) and an ABI Prism 7900 instrument (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA).
The specific primers used were: TLR4, assay ID: qHsaCED0037607; IL-6, Assay ID: qHsaCED0044677; and occludin, assay ID: qHsaCED0038290 (Bio-Rad, Coralville, IA, USA). q-PCR data were normalized to the β-actin gene (assay ID: qHsaCED0036269). The PCR conditions were 1 cycle of 95 °C for 10 min followed by 40 cycles of 95 °C for 15 s and 60 °C for 1 min. The 2−∆∆Ct method was used for relative quantification. Changes in gene expression were expressed as fold change versus unstimulated Caco-2 cells.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated from both HCC and adjacent normal tissue specimens adopting TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Then total RNA was reversely transcribed into the 1st-strand of cDNA using the RevertAid First Strand cDNA synthesis kits (Fermentas) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) reaction was performed using a SYBR Green Premix Ex Taq (Takara, Japan) on an ABI Prism 7900 instrument (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Relative expression of IGF-1R mRNA was calculated employing the comparative 2−ΔΔCt (threshold) method. GADPH was used as internal control. Primer sequences were as follows: IGF-1R forward: 5′-GTACAACTACCGCTGCTGGA-3′, and reverse: 5′-TGGCAGCACTCATTGTTCTC-3′; GADPH: forward: 5′-TCTTCGCTTTGTCCTTTCGT-3′, and reverse: 5′-TGCTGTAGCCAAATTCGTTG-3′. All experiments were performed in triplicate.

RNA isolation was followed by the reverse transcriptase PCR method. Reverse transcription into complementary DNA was achieved using the reagents and protocol of the PrimeScript RT reagent kit (TaKaRa BIO, Kyoto, Japan). The PCR primer set was as follows: mouse Aqp4 primers, forward; 5′-CTT TCT GGA AGG CAG TCT CAG-3′, reverse; 5′-CCA CAC CGA GCA AAA CAA AGA T-3′, mouse Aqp5 primers, forward; 5′-GGG TAA CCT GGC CGT CAA TG-3′, reverse; 5′-TGA CCG ACA AGC CAA TGG ATA A-3′, and mouse Gapdh primers, forward; 5′-TGT GTC CGT CGT GGA TCT GA-3′, reverse; 5′-TTG CTG TTG AAG TCG CAG GAG-3′. Real-time PCR was performed using SYBR Premix Ex Taq II reagent (TaKaRa BIO Inc.) and an ABI PRISM 7900 instrument (Applied Biosystems, Lincoln, CA, USA). Relative gene expression was calculated using the comparative delta Ct method with the Ct values of the housekeeping gene, Gapdh. mRNA levels were normalized, with the percentage for control groups taken as 100%.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
About 5 ml blood sample was collected from each participant. DNA was extracted with standard proteinase K digestion, followed by phenol–chloroform extraction and ethanol precipitation.
Genotyping of IGF2BP2 rs4402960 was performed with the Taqman allelic discrimination assays using ABI 7500 Real Time PCR (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). All primers and probes were designed by Applied Biosystems (Foster City, CA). The primers sequence were 5′-GGAGCAGTAAGGTAGGATGGACAGTAGATT-3′ (forward) and 5′-AAGATACTGATTGTG TTTGCAAACATGCCC-3′ (reverse). Assay ID is C__2165199_10, and context sequence is AGTAAGGTAGGATGGACAGTAGATT[G/T]AAGATACTGATTGTGTTTGCAAACA. The reaction mix included 10 μl DNA, 25 μl master mix (Applied Biosystems), 2.5 μl probe, and 12.5 μl sterile water in a final volume of 50 μl. PCR conditions comprised an initial denaturing step at 95°C for 10 min, followed by 45 cycles of 92°C for 30 s, with a final extension at 60°C for 1 min. PCR plates were read on an ABI PRISM 7900 instrument (Applied Biosystems). Two authors (G.S. and G.Z.) independently reviewed the genotyping results and input data.

The selection of candidate SNPs were mainly based on study previously published by Wen et al. (2018). Eight of the nine functional SNPs [ATG2B rs17784271 (3ʹUTR) and rs4900321 (3ʹUTR); ATG10 rs10514231 (intron 2), and rs4703533 (the promoter region); ATG12 rs26538 (the promoter region) and rs1058600 (3ʹUTR); ATG16L2 rs1126205 (the promoter region) and rs10898880 (the promoter region)], were included (MAF of rs6884232 in Chinese was 0). We also included two widely reported SNPs in ATG10 gene, rs1864182 and rs1864183. This means totally 10 SNPs were included in this study. The genotyping was performed using the TaqMan methodology and read with the Sequence Detection Software on an ABI‐Prism 7,900 instrument according to the manufacturer's instructions (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA).

Total RNA (1 μg), extracted as above, was reverse transcribed using the High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription kit (Applied Biosystems). The resulting cDNA was diluted to 5 ng/μl and 2 μl were used in each qPCR using the SYBR Green PCR Master Mix protocol and reagents (Applied Biosystems). qRT-PCR was performed by using a ABIPRISM7900 Instrument (Applied Biosystems) using the primers listed in S7 Table. All reactions were performed in three replicates from two independent cultures. As a control, we used Pros_5693, encoding sigma-70.

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.
