Mirna rt kit

Manufactured by Takara Bio
Sourced in China

The MiRNA RT Kit is a laboratory equipment product designed for the reverse transcription of microRNA (miRNA) molecules. It provides the necessary reagents and components to enable the conversion of miRNA into complementary DNA (cDNA) for downstream applications such as real-time PCR analysis.

The expression of Lin28B, let-7b, and let-7g in ovarian granulosa cells 24, 48, and 72 h
after transfection was assessed using qRT-PCR.
For Lin28B mRNA expression, ACTB was selected as the reference gene for normalizing
mRNA levels. The primer sequences for Lin28B and ACTB mRNA are presented in Table 1.
For let-7b and let-7g quantification, cDNA was synthesized using a miRNA RT Kit (Takara,
Dalian, China). The mature sequences of let-7b and let-7g were obtained using miRBase
(https://www.mirbase.org/, last access: 18 April 2022) and were used to design the primers. The forward
primers for let-7b and let-7g were designed, whereas the reverse primers were included in
the Takara miRNA RT Kit. U6 was selected as a reference gene. Table 1 presents
the primer sequences used for let-7b, let-7g, and U6 miRNA.
The qRT-PCR was performed using the Mir-X miRNA qRT-PCR TB Green Kit (Takara,
Dalian, China). All experiments were run on an Eppendorf device (Eppendorf,
Germany). Each sample and assay were run in triplicate. The levels of Lin28B,
let-7b, and let-7g were calculated using the 2 -ΔΔCT method.

Total RNAs were extracted from TTS and normal control tissues. In addition, an miRNA RT kit (Takara, China) was used for the RT of total RNAs into cDNAs. Next, qRT-PCR was carried out using the QuantStudioTM 5 Real-Time PCR System (Agilent Technologies) by use of SYBR Green PCR Kit (Takara), following the protocol of the manufacturer. Sangon Biotech (Shanghai, China) was utilized for the chemical synthesis of primers used for qRT-PCR. Table 1 shows the sequences of these primers. U6 was used as the internal reference, and 2-△△CT was used as the relative expression level.

Total RNA was extracted from cells using the Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Complementary DNA (cDNA) was generated using the miRNA RT Kit (Takara, Japan). According to the instruction book, the reverse transcription conditions were set as follows: 37 °C for 60 min and 85 °C for 5 min. Quantitative RT-PCR was carried out on the LightCycler 480 (Roche, Basel, CH, USA) with the fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR Kit (TB Green, Takara, Japan). U6 was used as an endogenous control for normalization of the data. miR-148a-3p forward primer: TCAGTGCACTACAGAACTTTG, U6 primer: forward, 5′‑AAA GCA AAT CAT CGG ACG ACC‑3′, reverse, 5′‑GTA CAA CAC ATT GTT TCC TCG GA‑3′. All RT-PCRs were performed in triplicate, and the data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD).

Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). For the detection of miRNAs, 1000 ng RNA was subjected to reverse transcription (RT) using an miRNA RT kit (TaKaRa, Dalian, China) and used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Real-time PCR was performed using the cDNA as a template with the SYBR PrimeScript miRNA Real-Time PCR Kit (TaKaRa, Dalian, China) according the manufacturer's instructions with following primers: miR-24-3p 5'-CCCATTCAGCAGGAACAGAAA-3'; U6 5'-ACGCAAATTCGTGAAGCGTT-3'. For the detection of mRNA, cDNA was synthesized from 1000 ng RNA using the PrimeScript RT reagent kit (Takara, Dalian, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Real-time PCR was performed using the cDNA as a template with the PrimeScript Real Time Master Mix (TaKaRa, Dalian, China) on a real-time PCR machine (Bio-Rad CFX 96, Hercules, CA, USA) with the following primers: PDGFRB 5'-GGCTACATGGACATGAGCAAGG-3' (forward), 5'-AGCTTAGCACTGGAGACTCGTTGA-3' (reverse); C-myc 5'-GCAGCTGCTTAGACGCTGGA-3' (forward), 5'-CGCAGTAGAAATACGGCTGCAC-3' (reverse); GAPDH 5'-GCACCGTCAAGGCTGAGAAC-3' (forward), 5'-TGGTGAAGACGCCAGTGGA-3' (reverse). Data analysis was performed by the comparative C T method using Bio-Rad Manager 2.1 software (Hercules, CA, USA).

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.
