The miRNA expression profiles were determined with a TaqMan miRNA Array Human Card A (Thermo Fisher Sciences, Waltham, MA, USA). Quantitative RT-PCR was performed on an Applied Biosystem 7900 HT thermocycler, in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommended program [31 (link)]. Using SDS2.2 software and Data Assist (version 3.01, Thermo Fisher Sciences, Waltham, MA, USA), the expression of exosomal miRNAs was calculated based on cycle threshold (Ct) values normalized by those of ath-miR-159, which was spiked in each exosomal sample. Data analysis was performed using GeneSpring® software (Version 12.1, Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA) and R software (https://www.r-project.org, accessed on 27 Arpil 2017). The Benjamini–Hochberg algorithm was used for the estimation of false discovery rates, as we reported previously [31 (link)].

Total RNAs were isolated from a volume of 400 μL of serum using miRVana PARIS Kit (Ambion), following the manufacturer's protocol. RNA concentration was measured by Nanodrop 2000 spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific, NY) and stored at -80°C. The cDNA was produced by reverse transcription of a total of 100ng RNA in a thermocycler using TaqMan MicroRNA Reverse Transcription Kit with specific TaqMan probes (Thermo Scientific, NY), following the procedure: incubation for 30 min at 16°C, 30 min at 42°C, and 5 min at 85°C and held at 4°C. qRT-PCR was carried out on an Applied BioSystems 7900HT thermocycler at 95°C for 10min, followed by 40 cycles of 95°C for 15sec and 60°C for 1min. The PCR reaction was repeated in duplicates for each sample. Since there is no consensus on the optimal housekeeping gene in serum, the relative miRNA expression was calculated using the equation 2-ΔCT, in which ΔCT = cycle threshold (CT) of NSCLC, healthy control or COPD individuals - mean of CT of all healthy controls, which was described by Hu et al. 37 (link). The fold-change of miRNA value was log2 transformed.

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.
