Small RNA was enriched from all plasma samples using the mirVana PARIS RNA isolation kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). In brief, a 300 μL aliquot of plasma was thawed on ice and centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 10 minutes to remove cells and cellular debris. Next, 250 μL of supernatant was lysed with an equal volume of 2x denaturing solution. For normalization of sample-to-sample variation during the RNA isolation procedures, 25 fmol of synthetic C. elegans miRNA (cel-miR-39, GE Dharmacon) was added to each denatured sample. Small RNAs were then enriched and purified following the manufacturer's protocol, with the exception that the enriched small RNAs were eluted in 20–30 μL of preheated nuclease-free water. DNase (Qiagen) treatment was used to remove any contaminating DNA. The RNA concentration was quantified using NanoDrop1000 (NanoDrop, Wilmington, DE) in all samples and ranged from 3 to 35 ng/μL.

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.
