Genes regulated by FGF2 in mouse cortical neuron culture

ABSTRACT: We have performed the hybridisation in triplicate using total RNA samples pooled from three independent batches of primary cortical neuron culture derived from E14.5 CD1 mouse brains on one day in vitro (1DIV). We stimulated the cells with 50 ng/ml FGF2 in the presence of 10 μg/ml heparin for 4 hours, and the expression of genes were compared to those in the absence of FGF2. The data were obtained from the three experiments with the best possible conditions and strict measures were applied for the purpose of quality control. Seventeen features representing housekeeping genes in the array (GAPDH, HPRT and S16, S9, and S8 ribosomal proteins) gave average value of Ratio of Medians (ROM), 1.20 ± 0.28, which was confirmed to be acceptable. Total RNA was extracted from cells in the growing phase by using RNA Clean (Hybaid) according to the manufacturer’s instruction and further purified with RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen). Direct labelling of 20 µg of total RNA primed with Oligo(dT) was performed in the presence of Cy-5 and Cy-3-dUTP (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) using SuperScript II (Invitrogen). The Cy5- and Cy3-labelled cDNA samples were then mixed and purified with GFX DNA purification kit (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). The samples were added with 1.2 µg of salmon sperm DNA and 5 µg of Poly(dA) and dried in SpeedVac at 60°C. The high-density glass microarray chips were prepared at the EMBL core facility by spotting the PCR products prepared from the NIA 15k cDNA mouse clone set. Array slides were pre-hybridized in 6x SSC, 0.5% SDS, 1% BSA at 42°C for 1 hour and incubated in a boiled water for 2 min shortly prior to hybridisation. The cDNA samples were resuspended in 15 µl of hybridisation buffer (50% formamide, 6x SSC, 0.5% SDS and 5% Denhardt’s) and denatured by incubating at 95°C for 2 min. Hybridisation was at 42oC for 16 hours. The slides were washed for 10 min each with 2 x SSC, then with 0.5 x SSC, 0.1%SDS, followed by 0.1 x SSC, 0.1%SDS, at room temperature. Scanning was performed with GenePix 4000B (Axon). Quality control was performed, firstly by eye, to confirm scanner alignment and absence of significant bubbles and scratches. Scatter plots were further used to eliminate the unacceptable hybridisation data. The multiple spike-in controls RNA template were added to the sample upon direct labelling, and the successful labelling and hybridisation was confirmed in each hybridisations. GenePix Pro grogram calculates the Normalisation Factor of each hybridisation, based on the premise that the arithmetic mean of the ratios from every feature on the given array should be equal to 1. Normalisation was therefore performed by multiplying the Factor to Ratio of Medians (ROM) in each gene. The program also identifies features that did not give good alignment to the expected spotted area as “flagged” spots, indicative of the impaired-quality hybridisation of the specific genes.

Project description:Synechocystis 6803 cells was grown photoautotrophically at 32 °C buffered in BG-11 and bubbled with 3% CO2. A relatively mild Ci stress was applied by switching the aeration from 3% CO2 to air alone. After incubation under designated conditions, a 100-ml aliquot of culture was immediately combined with an equal volume of ice-cold mixture of phenol and ethanol (1:10, w/v) in an ice bath. The resultant cells were collected by centrifugation at 1000 x g for 10 min at 4 °C. Total RNA was isolated with RNeasy Midi Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) and further treated with the DNA-free kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). Fluorescently labeled cDNA was produced via a two-step indirect procedure involving cDNA synthesis from 16 µg of total RNA in a reverse transcriptase reaction incorporating aminoallyl-modified deoxynucleotide, followed by the second step involving chemical coupling of fluorescent dye to the introduced amino moieties of the synthesized cDNA. Labeled cDNA were adjusted to 14.75 µl, and the remainder of the hybridization components containing 2.5 µl of 10 µg µl-1 salmon sperm DNA, 8.75 µl of 20x SSC, 0.25 µl of 10% SDS, and 8.75 µl of formamide were added. The mixture was then heated for 2 min at 99 °C and maintained at 42 °C until hybridization. Hybridizations were preformed in a static incubator at 42 °C for 12-16 h then washed by placing in a 250-ml solution of 2x SSC and 0.1% SDS at 42 °C for 5 min with gentle agitation provided by rotation of a magnetic stir bar. The slide was transferred quickly to a 250-ml solution of 0.1x SSC and 0.1% SDS, incubated for 10 min at room temperature with gentle agitation, and washed five additional times in 0.1x SSC for 1 min at room temperature. Hybridization signals from the microarray were quantified using GenePix Pro 4.1 (Axon Instruments, Union City, CA). The quality control procedures were conducted in the image analysis software, and then data were saved to Acuity 3.1 (Axon Instruments). Keywords: time-course

Project description:Ambient temperature affects organisms comprehensively, however cold responses are different among tissues. Here, we adopt a transcript screening approach to explore and compare the cold responses in zebrafish gills and brain. Zebrafish were exposed to cold and the oligonucleotide-based microarray was used to identify cold-induced genes. Principle component analysis (PCA) of the gene expression profiles indicated that gills develop different strategies for the increasing of exposure period while brain relatively remained stable. Combining statistic and clustering methods, we found that gills showed higher protein metabolism and cell activity while brain showed higher stress responses and detoxification during cold acclimation. According to the microarray data sets, we extended the study on ionocyte- and isotocin neuron-related genes in gills and brain, respectively, and found these genes were broadly stimulated by cold. These data suggest that cold activates specific physiological functions in different tissues. Taken together, our results provide molecular evidences to elucidate the cold acclimation in zebrafish gills and brain. Keywords: Time course, Tissue types After the low-temperature treatment, brain and gill tissues dissected from 10 individuals were pooled as a sample and then homogenized in 0.8 ml Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). 120 individuals (60 for low-temperature treatment and 60 for control) were sacrificed for each microarray hybridization experiment, and another 200 individuals were used for quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. After chloroform extraction, RNA precipitation and ethanol washing, the RNA samples were purified and treated with DNase1 to remove the genomic DNA by using RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Huntsville, Alabama). The quantity and quality of total RNA were assessed by spectrophotometry and Bioanalyzer (Aglient Technologies, Foster City, CA). The commercial zebrafish 14K oligonucleotides set (MWG Biotech AG, Ebersbach, Germany) were obtained and were printed on UltraGAPS Coated slide (Corning, New York, NY ) with use of the OmniGrid 100 microarrayer (Genomic Solutions, Ann Arbor, MI) according to the manufactureâ??s instructions. The 14,067 oligonucleotides represent 9666 genes (7009 singlet genes and 2657 redundant genes), and the redundancy of this chip is 31 %. The detailed description of the oligonucleotides information can be obtained on the Ocimun Biosolution website. cDNA probes were synthesized and purified by reverse transcription of 20 Î¼g total RNA using a SuperScript indirect cDNA labeling system (Invitrogen) and MinElute PCR purification kit (Qiagen) and were labeled with Alexa 647 dye (cold treatment groups) and Alexa 555 dye (control groups)(Invitrogen), respectively. The zebrafish 14K OciChip array chip was pretreated with 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) (fraction V), 4x saline-sodium citrate (SSC), and 1% sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) at 42 Â°C for 45 min, and then hybridized overnight in a cocktail containing 5x Denhardt's solution, 6x SSC, 0.5% SDS, 50% formamide, 50 mM sodium phosphate, and 2 Âµg/Âµl yeast tRNA. Slides were washed with 2x SSC and 0.1% SDS (5 min), 1x SSC and 0.1% SDS (5 min), 0.5x SSC (5 min), and twice with 0.1x SSC (2 min each). Scanning was performed with a Genepix scanner (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA). The acquired images were analyzed using Genepix and Genespring software (Aglient Technologies, Foster City, CA). The measurements of spots were filtered by flags, and the Lowess normalization was performed after subtraction of the median background. Each experiment contained 3 biological replicates (including 1 dye swap) with different samples. The differentially expressed genes were selected from those with at least 2 of 3 significant signals (ratio > 2 or < 0.5), and then the Significant Analysis of Microarray method (SAM 3.02) was used to determine statistical significances.

Project description:This series repressents the data set from the paper "Expression microarray analysis and oligo array CGH of aquired gemcitabine resistance in mouse colon reveals selection for chromosomal aberrations". Biological material: One solid mouse tumor "Colon 26A" was routinely maintained by successive transplantation. A subset of mice with this tumor was treated at the maximum tolerable dosage of Gemcitabine and successively transplanted 5 times and similarly treated. The last passage was completly resistant and designated, "Colon 26G". Expression array: Total RNA was isolated from frozen mouse tumors using Tryzol. Single stranded cDNA was synthetized from 30 mg of total RNA by reverse transcription using aminoallyl labeled dUTP (Ambion). Labelling was performed according to the aminoallyl labeling protocol. Briefly, cDNA was incubated at room temperature for 1 h with fluorolink monofunctional cy5 or cy3 (Amersham) followed by 15 min 4 M hydroxylamine treatment. Uncoupled dyes were removed using Qiaquick PCR purification columns (Qiagen) and mixed with 12 mg poly(dA) (Amersham), 60 mg yeast tRNA (Sigma) and 24 mg Cot-1 DNA (Invitroen). The probe was dissolved in 127 ml hybridization mixture containing 46% formamide, 9.5% dextran sulfate, 2x SSC and 0.2% SDS. The probe was heated to 70°C for 10 min and annealed at 37°C for 1 h. Slides were hybridized for 14 h at 37°C over-night (HyArray 12™, Perkin Elmer). After hybridization the slides were washed in the HybArray 12™ with 50% formamide, 2x SSC, pH 7 at 35°C for 15 min, followed b PI buffer (0.1 M sodium phosphate, 0.1% Igepal Ca630, pH 8) at room temperature and 3 washes of 0.2x SSC, 0.1x SSC and 0.01x SSC at room temperature followed by centrifugation. Arrays were scanned using a laser scanner (ScanArray Express, Perkin Elmer) and analysed using ImaGene version 5.6. Cy5 cy3 ratios are calculating by taking the log2 of the signal mean of each spot minus the median background mean of all spots on the array. This is followed by a standard normalization for spot intensity and calculation of the ratios. Keywords: other

Project description:MicroPoly(A)Pure kits (Ambion) were used to prepare mRNA from P. salmonis-infected and control Atlantic salmon head kidney. Head kidney mRNA samples were prepared from pooled (n = 10) infected or control kidney. Approximately 200 ng of infected or control head kidney mRNA was used as template in aRNA synthesis reactions. Two infected head kidney samples were pooled to yield 8.9 ug of aRNA, and a single control head kidney sample contained 8.4 ug of aRNA. Infected and control head kidney aRNA samples were visualized on agarose gels to check quality and quantity (data not shown). Except for the amounts of aRNA and reverse transcription (RT) primer used, head kidney target labeling reactions and microarray hybridizations were identical. Head kidney target syntheses used 2 ug of aRNA and 2 ug of random primers (Roche). RT primers were mixed with aRNA samples, and nuclease-free H2O (Invitrogen) was added to make 10 ul total volume. Samples were incubated at 70 degrees C for 4 min, then placed on ice. RT reactions included 50 mM Tris HCl pH 8.3, 75 mM KCl, 3 mM MgCl2, 10 mM DTT, 0.5 mM each dATP, dCTP, and dGTP, 0.2 mM dTTP, 0.05 mM Cy3-dUTP or Cy5-dUTP (Amersham), 40U RNAguard ribonuclease inhibitor (Amersham), and 400U Superscript II Rnase H- reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). RT reactions were incubated at 42 degrees C for 2.5 h, followed by addition of 0.025U RNase A (Sigma) and 1.5U RNase H (New England BioLabs) and incubation at 37 degrees C for 30 min. Labeled targets were cleaned using the Qiaquick PCR purification kit (Qiagen) and precipitated, with 300 mM sodium acetate, 1 ul of 20 ug/ul glycogen (Invitrogen), and 2.5 volumes of 100% ethanol, at -20 degrees C overnight. Each labeled target was recovered by centrifugation (14,000 rpm, 4 degrees C, 1 h), washed in 70% ethanol, air-dried, and resuspended in 60 ul of hybridization buffer: 50% deionized formamide, 5X SSC, 0.1% SDS, 5 ul of 5 ug/ul oligo dT (5’T18[Q-N]3’), 5 ul of 2 ug/ul BSA (Pierce), and 2 ul of 10 ug/ul sonicated human placental DNA (Sigma). Targets were incubated at 96 degrees C for 3 min, and then at 65 degrees C until applied to microarrays. Microarrays were prepared for hybridization by washing 2 X 5 min in 0.1% SDS, washing 5 X 1 min in MilliQ H2O, immersing 3 min in 95 degrees C MilliQ H2O, and drying by centrifugation (2000 rpm, 5 min, in 50 ml conical tube). Microarray hybridizations were run in the dark under HybriSlips hybridization covers (Grace Biolabs) in slide hybridization chambers (Corning) submerged in a 45 degrees C water bath for 16 h. Coverslips were floated off in 45 degrees C (1X SSC, 0.2% SDS), and arrays were washed 1 X 10 min in 45 degrees C (1X SSC, 0.2% SDS), 3 X 4 min in room temperature (0.1X SSC, 0.1% SDS), and 4 X 4 min in room temperature 0.1X SSC. Slides were dried by centrifugation as before. Fluorescent images of hybridized arrays were acquired immediately at 10 um resolution using ScanArray Express (PerkinElmer). The Cy3 and Cy5 cyanine fluors were excited at 543 nm and 633 nm respectively, and the same laser power (90%) and photomultiplier tube (PMT) settings were used for all slides in a study (PMT 75 Cy3, PMT 63 or 64 Cy5 for head kidney study). Fluorescent intensity data were extracted from TIF images using Imagene 5.5 software (Biodiscovery). Keywords: other

Project description:To identify mRNAs associated with human PUM2 protein, we used a modified Ribonucleoprotein-ImmunoPrecipitation Microarray (RIP-Chip) approach on HeLa S3 cancer cells that express PUM2. PUM ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes were captured from cell-free extracts with specific anti PUM2 antibody coupled to protein A sepharose beads, and then eluted with SDS-EDTA. To control for non-specifically enriched RNAs, the same procedure was performed with beads that were not coupled with immunoprecipitating antibodies (mock samples). Total RNA was isolated from cell extracts and immunopurified samples with the mirVanaTM PARISTM kit (Ambion). RNA was quantified with a NanoDrop device (Witeg AG). Poly-adenylated RNAs were amplified in the presence of aminoallyl-UTP with Amino Allyl MessageAmp II aRNA kit (Ambion). For this purpose, 500 ng total RNA from extracts and half (50-100 ng) of the immunopurified RNAs were used for amplification. 8 ug of the amplified RNAs (aaRNA) were fluorescently labeled with NHS-monoester Cy3 and Cy5 dyes (GE HealthSciences), except for mock RNA samples, where an aaRNA amount proportional to the yield obtained from corresponding PUM affinity isolates was used.For PUM2 RIPs, we performed four biological replicates but omitted the dye swaps due to the lower aaRNA obtained after amplification (~10 ug aaRNA from PUM2 RIPs, 9 ug aaRNA from mock RIPs). The Cy3- and Cy5-labeled aaRNA samples were mixed and hybridized to human cDNA microarrays. Detailed methods for microarray experiments are available at http://cmgm.stanford.edu/pbrown/protocols/index.html. cDNA microarrays were produced by the Stanford Functional Genomic Facility and contained 43,197 human probes representing 26,524 Unigene cluster IDs (12,466 ENSEMBL annotated genes) spotted on Corning Ultra GAPS slides. Spotted cDNAs were cross-linked with 65 mJ of UV irradiation on slides, which were then post-processed for 1 hour at 42°C in pre-hybridization solution (5x SSC, 0.1% SDS, 0.1 mg/ml BSA), washed twice in 400 ml of 0.1x SSC for 5 min, dunked in 400 ml ultrapure water for 30 sec, and dried by centrifugation at 550 rpm for 5 min. Slides were used the same day. Cy3- and Cy5-labeled aaRNA probes were mixed and applied to arrays in hybridization solution (3x SSC, 20 ug poly(A) RNA [Invitrogen], 20 ug yeast tRNA [Invitrogen], 20 ug Human Cot-1 DNA [Invitrogen], 20 mM HEPES [pH 7.0] and 0.3% SDS) for 18 h at 65°C. The arrays were then washed sequentially in 400 ml of 2x SSC with 0.1% SDS, 1x SSC, and 0.2x SSC. The first wash was performed for 5 min at 65°C, the subsequent washes were performed for 5 min at RT. The arrays were dried by centrifugation and immediately scanned with an AxonScanner 4200A (Molecular Devices). Data were collected using GENEPIX 5.1 (Molecular Devices). Arrays were normalized computationally by the Stanford Microarray Database (SMD). The data were filtered for signal over background of greater than 1.5 in the channel measuring aaRNA from extract, and only features that met these criteria in > 50% of the arrays were included for further analysis. Log2 median ratios were retrieved and exported into Microsoft Excel. To identify transcripts that were specifically enriched by association with PUM2, we performed two class Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) on median centered arrays. A replicate experimental design type is where a series of replicates are performed to evaluate reproducibility or as a pilot study to determine the appropriate number of replicates for a subsequent experiments.
