This article describes a new method for extracting RNA, protein, and lipid mediators from a single tissue specimen. Specifically, mouse bone fracture callus specimens were extracted into a single solution that was processed using three different procedures to measure messenger RNA (mRNA) levels by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTqPCR), cytokines and growth factors using an xMAP method, and lipid mediators by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). This method has several advantages because it decreases the number of animals necessary for experimentation, allows division of the sample from a homogeneous mixture that reduces sample variability, and uses a solution that protects the integrity of the macromolecules during storage.
本文描述了一种从单个组织样本中提取RNA、蛋白质和脂质介质的新方法。具体而言,将小鼠骨折痂样本提取到单一溶液中,该溶液通过三种不同程序进行处理,以通过逆转录定量聚合酶链反应(RTqPCR)测量信使核糖核酸(mRNA)水平,使用xMAP方法测量细胞因子和生长因子,并通过液相色谱-串联质谱法(LC-MS/MS)测量脂质介质。该方法具有多个优点,因为它减少了实验所需的动物数量,允许从均匀混合物中分割样本以降低样本变异性,并且使用一种在储存期间保护大分子完整性的溶液。
