Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was performed to determine mRNA levels. Total RNA was isolated using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Complementary DNA synthesis was performed with 1 µg of RNA using the AccuPower CycleScript RT premix kit (Bioneer, Daedeok-gu, Daejeon, Korea). Real-time PCR amplification was performed using TOPreal™ qPCR Premix (Enzynomics, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, Korea) on a 96-well optical plate. It was detected with the CFX96 real-time detection system (Bio–Rad). Under the following conditions: 1 cycle at 95 °C for 15 min; 50 cycles of 95 °C for 15 s and 60 °C for 15 s and 72 °C for 30 s, followed by 1 cycle of 65 °C to 95 °C every 0.5 °C for 1 s. In this study, only primer pairs leading to the synthesis of single fragments of appropriate size were used. The primer sets used in this study are listed in Table 2.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
