Transcription profiling of pig alveolar macrophages infected with Porcine Respiratory Reproductive Syndrome Virus
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A primary culture of Porcine Alveolar Macrophages (PAM) from six animals was split in two: one was infected at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10 with a 13th passage of PRRSV Lelystad virus. The other culture was maintained as control. The percentage of infected cells ranged between 60 and 70% for all batches. Cells were collected 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 hours Post Infection in Trizolfor RNA extraction. Total RNA extraction from PAM was performed with Trizol following standard instructions and clean-up was done using RNeasy columns. RNA quality was assessed by microcapillary electrophoresis on an Agilent 2001 Bioanalyzer with RNA 6000 Nanochips. RNA was quantified by spectrophotometry. Reverse transcription (RT) of 20 õg total RNA and synthesis of biotin-labeled cRNA with one round of amplification were carried out following the standard Affymetrix one-cycle protocol according to the manufacturer's instructions. Three samples each from control and infected cells were pooled (resulting in 2 control and 2 infected samples for analysis at each time point), and their transcriptional profiles were assessed on GeneChip Porcine Genome Arrays.
