We utilized 5μl RNA 1% agarose gel electrophoresis to detect the integrity of the RNA, and then used DNase I kit (CWbio, catalog #CW2090) and HiFi‐MMLVcDNA first strand synthesis kit (CWbio, catalog #CW0744) to digest residual genomic DNA in RNA and reverse transcription, respectively. The expression level was measured by quantitative real‐time PCR running on the ABI 7500 system following the product instructions. Relative quantitative data was calculated by the comparative Ct method (2‐△△CT).24

RNAs were reverse transcribed with the HiFi‐MMLV cDNA first strand synthesis kit (CWBIO). qRT‐PCRs were performed on a 96‐well format Roche LightCycler 480 real‐time PCR machine to compare the levels of the two circRNAs between the case and control groups. The relative fold changes were calculated by the comparative threshold cycle method, and GAPDH was used as the internal normalization control. Primers are listed in Table 3. The dissociation curve of each sample was then assessed. CircRNA levels were calculated by the ΔCt method with GAPDH as the control. Larger ΔCt values indicate lower expression. All data in this study were expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of two independent experiments.

A fluorescence quantitative PCR method was used to measure the mRNA levels of TLR2 and Sphk1 in ischemic brain tissue. Each group of mice after 12, 24 or 48 h of reperfusion were then anesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate (3.5 ml/kg body weight) by intraperitoneal injection. The ischemic side brain tissue was storeed at −80°C in a low temperature freezer for future use. Primers for the real-time PCR detection of the target gene were designed and synthesized by Beijing Kangwei Century Biotechnology Co. and were as follows: TLR2 forward, CAGTCCCAAAGTCT AAAGTC and reverse, CTACGGGCAGTGGTGAAAAC, amplification product 166 bp; Sphk1 forward, GGAACC AGTAGAATGCCCTC and reverse, GGTTCTTCCGTTCGG TGAGT, amplification product 173 bp. An ultrapure RNA extraction kit (cat no. CW0581; CW Bio. Co., Ltd., Beijing, China) was used to extract total RNA amount from the tissue. Samples containing 5 μl RNA were assessed with 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, and a HiFi-MMLV cDNA first-strand synthesis kit (cat no. CW0744; CW Bio. Co., Ltd.) was used to perform reverse transcription. Using an LC-480II quantitative PCR machine, the 2−ΔΔCT method was used for the quantitative analysis of related data. Each sample was analyzed in duplicate.

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.
