Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction

Manufactured by Takara Bio
Sourced in China

Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) is a laboratory technique used to detect and quantify the amount of a specific DNA or RNA sequence in a sample. It combines the amplification of a target sequence with the simultaneous measurement of the amplified product.

The total RNA was extracted from tissues using RNAEX reagent (Accurate Biotechnology, China). It was reverse transcribed into cDNA by using Evo M-MLV RT premix (Accurate Biotechnology, China) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) system (TaKaRa, Japan). Then a SYBR Green Premix Pro Taq HS qPCR Kit (Accurate Biotechnology, China) was used for PCR. The PCR liquid volume was 20 μL. Quantitative PCR was performed using an RT-PCR system (BioRad, Singapore). At 95℃, 40 cycles were amplified after 90 s of initial denaturation, 10 s desaturation at 95℃, and 34 s of extension at 60℃. GAPDH was used as the reference gene for calculation. And the primer sequences are shown in Table 1.

Quantitative Analysis of Spinal Cord Gene Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Under deep anesthesia, the L4-L5 spinal cord segments of the mice were quickly removed and analyzed. Total RNA was isolated with Trizol reagent (R401-01; Vazyme, Nanjing, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions. cDNA was then synthesized using 5X PrimeScript RT Master Mix (TaKaRa, Dalian, China). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (TaKaRa) was performed in a 20-μL reaction mixture consisting of 10 μL of 2× SYBR Premis Ex TaqTM II, 2 μL of cDNA, 1 μL of forward primer, 1 μL of reverse primer and 6 μL of ddH2O. The thermal cycling conditions used were 95°C for 5 min, 40 cycles of 95°C for 5 s and 58°C for 30 s, and 72°C for 30 s. The specific primers used for detection are listed in Supplementary Table S1. Relative mRNA levels were calculated using the 2 -ΔΔCT method [30] . Gene expression was normalized to that of the housekeeping control gene GAPDH.

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.
