Project description:mRNA levels of the known 91 FoxO1 target genes were evaluated with RT2 Profiler PCR array in cardiomyocytes transduced with LacZ, Mst1, FoxO1, FoxO1+Mst1, or FoxO1+DN-Mst1 genes were evaluated with RT2 Profiler PCR arrays.
Project description:Zebrafish larvae from WT and NOD1-1IS-/- collected at 10 dpf were used for Zebrafish PI3K-AKT Signaling Pathway RT2 Profiler PCR Array.
Project description:Normal fibroblasts and SSc fibroblasts between the third and six subpassages were used for experiments. Total RNA was extracted from culture cells with ISOGEN (Nippon Gene, Tokyo, Japan). MicroRNA isolation from total RNA was performed using RT2 qPCR-Grade miRNA Isolation Kit (SA Bioscience). For RT2 Profiler PCR Array (SABioscience), microRNAs were reverse-transcribed into first strand cDNA using RT2 miRNA First Strand Kit (SABiosciences). A mixture of equal amounts of cDNAs from 5 normal fibroblasts or 5 SSc fibroblasts was prepared. The cDNA was mixed with RT2 SYBR Green/ROX qPCR Master Mix and the mixture was added into a 96-well RT2 miRNA PCR Array (SABiosciences) that included primer pairs for 88 human microRNAs.
Project description:A pool of cDNA from naive BALB/c mice lungs (n=8) was compared with one from D70 p.i. Litomosoides sigmodontis-infected mice (n=8) by profiling 84 cytokine-related genes simultaneously. Screening of inflammatory lung environment was performed with a qRT-PCR array (Mouse Cytokines & Chemokines RT2 Profiler PCR Array, Qiagen, Germany) according to manufacturer’s instructions.
Project description:NDNs and LDNs were isolated by density gradient centrifugation of PBMCs from 8 patients affected by tubercolosis (TB). In detail, RNA was extracted from NDNs and LDNs by Maxwell® RSC miRNA Tissue kit (Promega, Madison, USA), following manufacturer’s instructions. RNA concentration and quality was measured using NanoDrop 2000 Spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Total RNA (600 ng) was reverse transcribed using the RT2 First Strand Kit (SABiosciences, Qiagen, UK). 84 human cytokines and chemokines were tested using the RT2 Profiler PCR Array Human Innate & Adaptive Immune Responses array (Qiagen). A semiquantitative real-time RT-PCR was performed using a real-time PCR detection system (QuantStudio 7 Flex Real-Time PCR System, Thermo Fisher Scientific) with a two-step thermal cycling: 95 °C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles (95 °C for 15 sec, 60 °C for 1 min). Data were analysed using the RT² Profiler PCR Array Qiagen data analysis software, and ACTB and B2M as housekeeping genes.
Project description:Whole blood was collected for styrene-exposed and control workers subjects in a fiberglass boat industry. Total RNA was extracted from blood lymphocytes, and cDNA was synthesized for profiling on the Human Stress and Toxicity PathwayFinder(tm) RT2 Profiler(tm) PCR Expression Array (PAHS-003, SABiosciences).
Project description:Young endothelial cells (CPD >25 and <30; SA-Beta Gal positivity <10%) were exposed to one week of hyperglycemia (25 mmol/L) or sub-cultured until complete growth arrest (CPD > 50). Using real-time PCR, we analyzed the expression of a focused panel of genes involved in cellular senescence.The array includes genes involved in the primary senescence program and known stresses that cause premature senescence.
