title: Lung transcriptional profiling of pulmonary tuberculosis, adenocarcinoma and sarcoidosis patients using RNA-Seq.
design: Human lung tissues were used for total RNA extraction with RNeasy Plus Mini Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturers protocol. RNA purity was assessed using a Nanodrop ND-2000 (Thermo Scientific), and each RNA sample had an A260:A280 ratio above 1.8 and A260:A230 ratio above 2.0. RNA integrity was evaluated using the Agilent 2200 TapeStation (Agilent Technologies), and each sample had the RNA Integrity Number (RIN) above 7.0. The ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) were removed using Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal Kits (Illumina). RNA libraries were then constructed by NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (New England Biolabs) and evaluated using the Agilent 2200 TapeStation and Qubit 2.0 (Life Technologies).
