For RNase R treatment, total RNA in cells was incubated with 3 U/μg of RNase R (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) for 20 min at 37°C, followed by purification using RNA clean kit (Axygen, Hangzhou, China) according to the instruction. The RNA expression was evaluated by SYBR Select Master Mix kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) with special RT-qPCR primer sets on ABI 7900 (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The sequence of primer sets was circ_0013912: 5ʹ-AGATTGTGCGAACCATGCTC-3ʹ and 5ʹ-CATCATCTGGAATGGGCTCA-3ʹ, miR-7-5p: 5ʹ-CGGCGGTGGAAGACTAGTGATTT-3ʹ and 5ʹ-GTGCAGGGTCCGAGGT-3ʹ, GAPDH, 5ʹ-GACAGTCAGCCGCATCTTCT-3ʹ and 5ʹ-GCGCCCAATACGACCAAATC-3ʹ, and U6: 5ʹ-CTCGCTTCGGCAGCACA-3ʹ and 5ʹ-CTCGCTTCGGCAGCACA-3ʹ. The cycle threshold (Ct) value of each gene was used to examine relative expression of circ_0013912 (GAPDH as internal control) and miR-7-5p (U6 as internal control) using the 2−ΔΔCt method. For subcellular distribution of circ_0013912, Cytoplasmic & Nuclear RNA Purification Kit (BioVision, San Francisco, USA) was utilized to obtain total RNA in cytoplasmic fraction and nuclear fraction, followed with RT-qPCR analysis as above mentioned.

For RNase R treatment, total RNA (2 μg) was incubated at 37 ℃ with or without 3 U/μg of RNase R (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). After treatment with RNase R, qRT-PCR was carried out to evaluate the expression levels of circular-ITCH and linear-ITCH.
For the nuclear and cytoplasmic fraction assay, a PARIS™ Kit (Invitrogen) was employed. Briefly, cells were harvested and lysed in cell fractionation buffer, followed by centrifugation to separate the nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions. The supernatant was transferred to a fresh RNase-free tube. The nuclear pellet was lysed in Cell Disruption Buffer. The cytoplasmic fraction and nuclear lysate were mixed with 2X Lysis/Binding Solution and then incubated with 100% ethanol. The RNAs of nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions were eluted with Elution Solution. U6 and GAPDH were employed as a positive control for nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions, respectively.

TRIzol Total RNA isolation kit (cat. No. KGA1201; Key-Gen Biotech, Nanjing, China) was used for RNA extraction from tissues and cells. Then, cDNA synthesis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were carried out using a PrimeScript Reverse Transcription Kit (Takara, Shiga, Japan) and SYBR Green Master Mix Kit (Takara), respectively. The 2 -ΔΔCt method was applied for identifying the relative expression of circRNA, miRNA and mRNA using GAPDH or U6 as an endogenous control. Table 2 includes all the primer sequences used in this study.
For RNase R treatment, 2 μg of isolated RNA from GC cells were treated with or without 3 U/mg RNase R (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA). After incubation for 60 min at 37°C, the expression of hsa_circ_0017842 and its linear gene FAM188A was measured with qPCR to demonstrate the stability of hsa_circ_0017842.

The circRNA and mRNA sequencing were completed at Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co. Ltd. (Beijing, China). In this study, total RNA was extracted from the infarcted tissue samples of the sham, MCAO model, and fluoxetine treatment groups using TRIzol (Invitrogen, CA, USA). NanoDrop ND-1000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was used to evaluate the integrity and concentration of the RNA samples. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was removed using Ribo-zero rRNA Removal Kit (Epicenter, Madison, WI, USA). The linear RNA was removed using RNase R (Sigma) for circRNA sequencing. Then, libraries were constructed according to the instruction of NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB, USA). For mRNA sequencing, NEBNext Ultra II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB) was used to establish libraries following the kit’s protocol.

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.
