Project description:Time series of eleven breast cancer samples subjected to different cold ischemic stress of up to 3 hr post tumor excision. A different 2x2 factorial within this study evaluated the effect of stabilization method (RNAlater vs snap freezing) and stablization delay (0 and 40 min) at room temperature. Tissue samples were collected at surgery, cut into 1-2 mm pieces and divided into 8 portions. Portions were put in RNAlater or fresh frozen at baseline, 20, 40, 60, 120, and 180 minutes thereafter, or snap frozen in dry ice in a pre-chilled sample vial at baseline and 40 minutes thereafter.

Project description:Comparison of concordance in single and multi-gene genomic indices from data generated by two different laboratories (MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDA) and Jules Bordet Institute (JBI)) and on two different Affymetrix platforms (U113A and U133_Plus2). We used a 2x2 factorial study in which 16 clinical breast cancer samples were profiled by both laboratories on both platforms (64 arrays total).

Total RNA was extracted, cRNA was labeled and fragmented at MDA. Fragmented cRNA was profiled on both platforms at MDA. Fragmented cRNA was shipped to JBI where it was also profiled on both platforms.

Project description:Banking of high-quality placental tissue specimens will enable biomarker discovery and molecular studies on diseases involving placental dysfunction. Systematic studies aimed at developing feasible standardized methodology for placental collection for genomic analyses are lacking. To determine the acceptable timeframe for placental collection, we collected multiple samples from first and third trimester placentas at serial time points 0-120 minutes after delivery, simultaneously comparing the traditional snap-freeze technique to collection in commercial solutions designed to preserve RNA (RNAlaterTM, Ambion), and DNA (DNAgard®, Biomatrica). The performance of RNAlater for preserving DNA was also tested. Nucleic acid quality was assessed by determining the RNA integrity number (RIN) and genome-wide expression and DNA methylation microarray profiling. We found that samples collected in RNAlater had higher and more consistent RINs compared to snap frozen tissue, with similar RINs obtained for tissue collected in RNAlater as large (1 cm3) and small (~0.1 cm3) tissue pieces. RNAlater appeared to better stabilize the time zero gene expression pattern compared to snap freezing for first trimester placenta. Microarray DNA methylation analysis showed that overall the DNA methylation profiles remained quite stable over a two hour time period after removal of the placenta from the uterus, with the DNAgard condition being superior to both snap freezing and RNAlater. The collection of placental samples in RNAlater and DNAgard is simple, and eliminates the need for liquid nitrogen or a freezer on-site. Moreover, the quality of the nucleic acids and the resulting data from samples collected in these preservation solutions is actually higher than that from samples collected using the traditional snap-freeze method. Thus, this new approach to placental sample collection is both easier to implement in busy clinical environments and yields higher quality data. 72 samples

To do this, we evaluated three different placenta collection methods: snap freezing in liquid nitrogen, RNAlaterTM, and DNAgard, over a two-hour window upon removal from the uterus, to determine: 1) the optimal collection method(s) for evaluation of mRNA expression and DNA methylation; and 2) the time period after delivery during which such optimal samples should be collected.

Project description:When studying gene expression in microbe-animals symbioses collected in the field it is essential to quickly and efficiently preserve in situ symbiont and host gene expression patterns. One of the most commonly used sample preservation methods for samples targeted for proteomic analyses is flash freezing, however, liquid nitrogen or dry ice needed for flash freezing are often not available at remote field sites. We tested if RNAlater allows to preserve proteins in animal-microbe symbioses as efficiently as flash freezing and without introducing issues with downstream processing. We used the marine gutless oligochaete Olavius algarvensis as a model for testing. Olavius algarvensis lives in shallow water sediments off the coast of Elba, Italy. It has no digestive and excretory system and harbors five bacterial symbionts that fulfill its nutritional and waste recycling needs (Kleiner et al., 2012, PNAS 109(19):1173-82). We compared five RNAlater preserved and five flash frozen samples in terms of the number of identified proteins, abundances of individual proteins and potential biases against specific protein or taxonomic groups. Five worms were incubated in RNAlater for 24 hours. After incubation, RNAlater was removed and samples were stored at -80°C. The remaining five worms were preserved with liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 °C immediately after preservation.

Project description:When studying gene expression in microbe-animals symbioses collected in the field it is essential to quickly and efficiently preserve in situ symbiont and host gene expression patterns. One of the most commonly used sample preservation methods for samples targeted for proteomic analyses is flash freezing, however, liquid nitrogen or dry ice needed for flash freezing are often not available at remote field sites. We first tested if RNAlater allows to preserve proteins in animal-microbe symbioses as efficiently as flash freezing and without introducing issues with downstream processing (see PXD014591). Second, for the data in this PRIDE submission we tested if RNAlater preserves protein expression patterns over time at room temperature. We used the marine gutless oligochaete Olavius algarvensis as a test case. Olavius algarvensis lives in shallow water sediments off the coast of Elba, Italy. It has no digestive and excretory system and harbors five bacterial symbionts that fulfill its nutritional and waste recycling needs (Kleiner et al., 2012, PNAS 109(19):1173-82). For this dataset, we fixed a total of 33 worms and incubated them in RNAlater for up to 4 weeks. We then evaluated proteome preservation quality in terms of the number of identified proteins, abundances of individual proteins and potential biases against specific protein or taxonomic groups. Out of this 33 samples, eleven worms were incubated for 24 hours in RNAlater at 4°C (t0), while the other worms were incubated in RNAlater at room temperature (21-23°C) for additional 24 hours (t1, 6 worms), one week (t2, 8 worms), and four weeks (t3, 8 worms). We removed RNAlater from the worms after incubation and froze the samples at -80°C.
