Diabetic Male Wistar rat after 7 days of diabetes induced with streptozotocin and subsequent treatment with oral vanadyl sulfate for 20 days.
Extracted molecule
polyA RNA
Extraction protocol
Total RNA was obtained from approximately 100 mg of rear leg skeletal muscle stored in RNAlater® Qiagen (Valencia, CA) at -80oC using Qiagen RNeasy Maxi kits. Homogenates were made using a Brinkman/Kinetmatica Model PT-2100 polytron (Westbury, NY) for tissue dispersal. Total RNA samples were further processed for poly(A)+ mRNA isolation using Qiagen oligotex mRNA kit.
Label
biotin
Label protocol
Approximately 1 ug of mRNA processed to produce biotinylated cRNA targets.
