Taqman mirna expression assays

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

TaqMan miRNA expression assays are a set of laboratory tools used for the quantitative analysis of microRNA (miRNA) expression levels. These assays employ real-time PCR technology to provide accurate and sensitive measurement of miRNA expression in biological samples.

Quantification of miR-320e Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Expression of miR-320e in the validation cohort was performed utilising the TaqMan reverse transcription–PCR (qRT–PCR) method with the predesigned TaqMan miRNA expression assays (Applied Biosystems Inc., Foster City, CA, USA) using a StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). All the experiments were done in duplicate. Results were expressed as 2−ΔCt, and the results were normalised to miR-16. To keep consistent measurements throughout all plates, two independent RNA cell line samples were loaded as internal controls along with each PCR run, and the results from each plate were normalised according to data obtained from these internal controls.

After collection, cells were washed with PBS and lysed with Trizol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer's specifications for RNA extraction. Final, purified RNA was dissolved in sterile distilled water. cDNA was synthesized using High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA), according to the manufacturer's protocol and using 400 ng of RNA per reaction. To obtain miRNA-specific cDNA, random primers were replaced with the corresponding TaqMan miRNA-Expression Assays (Applied Biosystems, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA).

qRT-PCR was performed on an ABI 7900HT instrument (Applied Biosystems, USA) with SYBR Green Real-time PCR Master Mix (Toyobo, Japan). For mRNA detection, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gapdh) was used for internal normalization. The primers used for mRNA detection are listed in Supplementary Table S1. For miRNA detection, reverse transcription and miRNA detection were carried out using the miRNA Reverse Transcription kit and TaqMan miRNA Expression Assays (Applied Biosystems, USA). Small nuclear RNA U6 was used for internal normalization.

Quantitative RT-PCR for Gene and miRNA Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
cDNA was synthesized from 1 μg of Trizol-extracted (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) total RNA using QuantiTect Reverse Transcription Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Quantitative cDNA amplification was carried out in triplicate for each sample in a final reaction volume of 10 μL, using 4.5 μL of cDNA (1/10 diluted), 5 μL Power SYBR Green Master Mix (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA), and 0.5 μL of 10-μM specific oligonucleotides for the gene of interest (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), in an ABI Prism 7300 sequence detector system with standard settings. Relative expression was calculated as RQ = 2−ΔΔCt. The oligonucleotides are indicated in S2 Table. As an internal control, gene expression was normalized to the mouse Actb, Gapdh, or 18S genes. miR-29 detection was performed using Taqman miRNA expression assays (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) for the double KO mice experiments or Taqman Advance miRNA expression assays (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) for the single KO mice experiments. As an internal control, miR-29 expression was normalized against snoRNA202 (Taqman miRNA Assays) or 18S (Taqman Advance miRNA assays). All protocols were carried out according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
