To verify the accuracy and reliability of differentially expressed RNAs (DE RNAs) screened by RNA-seq, six DE mRNAs, six DE lncRNAs, and six DE miRNAs were randomly selected for RT-qPCR. We used the PrimeScript™ RT Reagent Kit with gDNA Eraser (Perfect Real Time) (Takara, Dalian, China) to convert RNAs to cDNAs. The random hexamers were used for DE mRNAs and DE lncRNAs, and stem-loop RT primers were used for DE miRNAs. RT-qPCR was performed using the TB Green® Premix Ex Taq™Ⅱ Kit (Takara, Dalian, China) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. GAPDH for mRNAs and lncRNAs and U6 for miRNAs were used as endogenous controls. All primers used in RT-qPCR are designed using Primer Premier 5 software and exhibited in Supplementary Data S1. RT-qPCR was carried out in the LightCycler480 system (Roche, Swiss Confederation) with three replicates for each sample. The data were expressed as values relative to the E10 group. The relative expression levels of DE mRNAs, DE lncRNAs, and DE miRNAs were calculated using the 2−ΔΔCT method, and one-way ANOVA in SPSS 20.0 was used to analyze the data. Differences were considered significant at p < 0.05.

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.
