Preparation of cell and tissue extracts, and gene expression analysis, followed previously published methods [11 (link), 30 (link)]. In brief, Sybr green (Biorad) reactions were prepared as a master mix with 50 ng of cDNA/10 μl/well aliquoted into prearrayed and validated (per MIQE guidelines) BioRad pathway finder plates (Epilepsy M384; PrimePCRTM SABioscience) [31 ].
