cDNA was made with qScript™ Synthesis kit (Quanta BioSciences Inc.,Gaithersburg, MD). ARPC2 was used as a reference gene for normalization. All real-time PCR (qPCR) reactions were performed in triplicate using PerfeCTa® SYBR® Green SuperMix (Quanta BioSciences) and quantified using the ddCT method. The primer sequences are listed in Table 1.
The qScript™ microRNA Quantification System (Quanta BioSciences, Inc.) was used for miR expression using cDNA generated by the qScript™ microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit. 50 pg of initial RNA/PCR reaction was used on a CFX Connect™ qPCR Detection System (Bio-rad, Hercules, CA). SNORD48 was used as a reference gene to normalize miR expression.

RNA from MCs was extracted using Ribozol RNA Extraction Reagent (Amresco) as per the manufacturer’s recommendation, with 1 μg of RNA reverse transcribed into cDNA using qScript cDNA SuperMix Reagent (Quanta Biosciences). miRNA-enriched cDNA was generated using the qScript microRNA Quantification System (Quanta Biosciences). Quantitative real-time PCR was carried out using the Power SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific) on the Applied Biosystems ViiA 7 Real-Time PCR System (Thermo Fisher Scientific). mRNA and miRNA expression and fold changes were calculated using the ΔΔCT method, where 18S was used as a control for mRNA and U6 snRNA as a control for miRNA. Primers sequences used in the study are provided in Supplementary table 5.

The qScript microRNA Quantification System (Quanta BioSciences, Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA) was used for microRNA expression. Briefly, cDNA was synthesized from total RNA including the microRNA fraction using the qScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit. 50pg of initial RNA were used per PCR reaction on a CFX Connect Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-rad, Hercules, CA, USA). SNORD48 was used as a reference gene to normalize the miR expression. For gene expression, cDNA was made with qScript cDNA Synthesis kit (Quanta BioSciences Inc., Gaithersburg, MD, USA). ARPC2 was used as a reference gene for normalization.
All real-time PCR reactions were done in triplicate using the PerfeCTa SYBR Green SuperMix (Quanta BioSciences) and the relative gene expression was calculated with the ddCT method.

To provide more power for integration of genomic with qPCR data, additional NFFs (n=5) and DFUFs (n=4) were prospectively generated and included in validation of miRNA and mRNA expressions. qScript microRNA Quantification System (Quanta BioSciences, Inc.) was used to assess microRNA expression. Briefly, cDNA was synthesized from total RNA including the microRNA fraction using the qScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit (Quanta BioSciences, Inc.). 1ng of cDNA per PCR reaction was used with a CFX Connect Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad). Small nucleolar RNA C/D box 48 (SNORD48) was used as a reference gene to calculate miRNA relative expression.
For gene expression analysis, cDNA was made using qScript cDNA Synthesis kit (Quanta BioSciences, Inc.) and actin related protein 2/3 complex, subunit 2 (ARPC2) was used as a reference gene. All real-time PCR reactions were done in triplicate using PerfeCTa SYBR Green SuperMix (Quanta BioSciences, Inc.). Relative gene expression was calculated using the ddCT method. Sequence of primers used in qPCR are presented in Table 1.

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.
