Project description:To generate expression profiles from single embryos, a protocol for linear amplification of RNA was developed on the basis of Baugh et al. (15). Linear amplification enabled production of sufficient amounts of aRNA for the microarray experiments and has been shown to reliably amplify the initial mRNA population (15, 18-20). Approximately 5 ng of total RNA can be isolated from a blastocyst-stage embryo (21); therefore, it was necessary to carry out multiple rounds of amplification. To test the reproducibility and fidelity of the amplification procedure, a validation experiment was conducted using RNA from the kidney tissue of a newborn calf. Two replicates of the bovine kidney RNA were amplified and hybridized to the microarray. Comparisons were made between aRNA (rounds 1, 2, and 3) and unamplified RNA. Keywords: cDNA microarray

Project description:Abstract: BACKGROUND: T7 based linear amplification of RNA is used to obtain sufficient antisense RNA for microarray expression profiling. We optimized and systematically evaluated the fidelity and reproducibility of different amplification protocols using total RNA obtained from primary human breast carcinomas and high-density cDNA microarrays. RESULTS: Using an optimized protocol, the average correlation coefficient of gene expression of 11,123 cDNA clones between amplified and unamplified samples is 0.82 (0.85 when a virtual array was created using repeatedly amplified samples to minimize experimental variation). Less than 4% of genes show changes in expression level by 2-fold or greater after amplification compared to unamplified samples. Most changes due to amplification are not systematic both within one tumor sample and between different tumors. Amplification appears to dampen the variation of gene expression for some genes when compared to unamplified poly(A)+ RNA. The reproducibility between repeatedly amplified samples is 0.97 when performed on the same day, but drops to 0.90 when performed weeks apart. The fidelity and reproducibility of amplification is not affected by decreasing the amount of input total RNA in the 0.3-3 micrograms range. Adding template-switching primer, DNA ligase, or column purification of double-stranded cDNA does not improve the fidelity of amplification. The correlation coefficient between amplified and unamplified samples is higher when total RNA is used as template for both experimental and reference RNA amplification. CONCLUSION: T7 based linear amplification reproducibly generates amplified RNA that closely approximates original sample for gene expression profiling using cDNA microarrays.

Project description:A systems-level understanding of a small but essential population of cells in development or adulthood (e.g., somatic stem cells) requires accurate quantitative monitoring of genome-wide gene expression, ideally from single cells. We report here a strategy to globally amplify mRNAs from single cells for highly quantitative high-density oligonucleotide microarray analysis that combines a small number of directional PCR cycles with subsequent linear amplification. Using this strategy, both the representation of gene expression profiles and reproducibility between individual experiments are unambiguously improved from the original method, along with high coverage and accuracy.

Project description:Massive formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue archives exist worldwide, representing an invaluable resource for clinical proteomics research. However, current protocols for FFPE proteomics lack standardization, efficiency, reproducibility, and scalability. Here we present high-yield protein extraction and recovery by direct solubilization (HYPERsol), an optimized workflow using ultrasonication and S-Trap sample processing that enables proteome coverage and quantification from FFPE samples comparable to that achieved from flash-frozen tissue (average R = 0.936). When applied to archival samples, HYPERsol resulted in high-quality data from FFPE specimens in storage for up to 17 years, and may enable the discovery of new immunohistochemical markers.

Project description:We tested the performance of three methods for amplifying single-cell amounts of RNA under ideal conditions: T7-based in vitro transcription; switching mechanism at 5' end of RNA template (SMART) PCR amplification; and global PCR amplification. All methods introduced amplification-dependent noise when mRNA was amplified 108-fold, compared with data from unamplified cDNA. PCR-amplified cDNA demonstrated the smallest number of differences between two parallel replicate samples and the best correlation between independent amplifications from the same cell type, with SMART outperforming global PCR amplification. SMART had the highest true-positive rate and the lowest false-positive rate when comparing expression between two different cell types, but had the lowest absolute discovery rate of all three methods. Direct comparison of the performance of SMART and global PCR amplification on single-cell amounts of total RNA and on single neural stem cells confirmed these findings. Under the conditions tested, PCR amplification was more reliable than linear amplification for detecting true expression differences between samples. SMART amplification had a higher true-positive rate than global amplification, but at the expense of a considerably lower absolute discovery rate and a systematic compression of observed expression ratios.
