Quantifying Myocardial Sfrp2 Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Myocardial gene expression of Sfrp2 was performed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Total RNA was extracted using the TRIzol reagent (Life Technologies). The RNA samples reverse-transcribed to cDNA using an RNA reverse were transcribed with Maxima First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Takara, Dalian, China). The primers used were as follows: forward 5′-CATGGGACAGAAACAGGGTGGA-3′ and reverse 5′-GAGGTCGCAGAGTGGAAGTGGT-3′ for Sfrp2; forward 5′-GTATCGGACGCCTGGTTAC-3′ and reverse 5′-ACTGGAACATGTAGACCATGTAGTT-3′ for GAPDH.

Evaluating Key lncRNA and mRNA Levels in Ovarian Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The expression levels of two key lncRNAs (HAND2-AS1 and LEMD1-AS1) and five key mRNAs (MPPED2, SAMD12, LONRF1, SORD and SERPINA1) were assessed in the control cell line (IOSE80) and the three OC cell lines (A2780, SK-O-V3 and OVCAR-3) to verify the reliability of the present results. Total RNA was extracted from the cell lines using a Cell Total RNA Isolation Kit (Foregene). Random primers and a Maxima First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Takara Bio, Inc.) were used to synthesize cDNA. SYBR® Green Master Mix was used for qPCR. The primers, designed and synthesized by RiboBio, are listed in Table SI. GAPDH was used as the internal control. The relative expression was calculated using the 2−ΔΔCq method (24 (link)). All experiments were performed three times.

Total RNA was isolated from cell lines, patient samples with Trizol reagent (Invitrogen). After treatment with DNase I, RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA with Thermo scientific maxima first strand cDNA synthesis kit for mRNA detection, or with Takara™ microRNA transcription kit for microRNA detection. Real time PCR was carried out on Bio-Rad S1000 PCR instrument and each sample was analyzed in triplicate. PCR data were normalized to GAPDH or U6 snRNA expression for mRNA and miRNA respectively.
Primers for miR-125b and U6 were obtained from GeneCopoeia (GuangZhou Ribobio Co.Ltd, China), The antisense primer for miRNAs was bought from Takara (Dalian, China). Gab2 primers as follows: sense, 5’-CGC TGC TAGAC AAC AGC CGA CTT CAC C-3’ and antisense, 5’-GCC CAC AAT CAT TTT CCC T -3’.

The cartilaginous tissues or primary cultured chondrocytes from mice were collected and lysed in TRIzol (Invitrogen) for RNA isolation according to the manufacturer’s standard protocol. cDNA was synthesized from 1 μg RNA Maxima First Strand cDNA Synthesis kit (Takara). Real-time PCR was performed on ABI Fast7500 with Maxima SYBR Green qPCR Master Mix (Takara). The primer pairs have been previously described25 (link),55 (link)–58 (link) and are included in Supplementary Table 3. Fluorescence qPCR was performed by real-time fluorescence qPCR instrument (qTOWER3G, Jena Bioscience) and its application software (qPCRsoft 3.4). Real-time PCR results were analysed by Microsoft Excel (2306 Build 16.0.16529.20164).

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.
