Quantitative Analysis of miRNA-149-5p in BMM-Derived EVs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA was extracted from BMMs using a RNA isolation kit (Takara) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. A quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed using the SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Takara Bio). miR-149-5p in EVs from BMMs supernatant or serum of mice was extracted using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma kit (QIAGEN). The expression of miR-149-5p was detected with the miRNA qRT-PCR Detection Kit (GeneCopoeia). Levels of each mRNA or miRNA, respectively, were normalized to the GAPDH or U6 levels. The miR-149-5p level of EVs was compared with spiked-in ce-miR-39 to normalize miRNA expression, which was used as the reference by using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Spike-In Control kit (QIAGEN). Each experiment was performed at least 3 times. The 2−ΔΔCT method was used to quantify expression of the genes of interest. The primer sequences used in this study are listed in Supplemental Table 1.

Vitreous miRNA Isolation and Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fifty μL of each individual vitreous sample from each group were pooled to a total of 1 mL/group (pooled analysis). The miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany; Cat No. 217184) was used for the isolation of cell-free total RNA including miRNA from the vitreous, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Spike-In Control Kit (Qiagen, Cat No. 219610) was used during the extraction protocol. The Kit includes a C. elegans miRNA-39-mimic (Ce), which serves as an isolation efficiency control and internal normalization control for the miRNA profiler assays. The presence of miRNA in each pooled vitreous group was confirmed by running control reactions as described in “Pooled analysis”.

Total RNA was extracted from cells by Trizol reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions. The mRNA was employed to generate cDNA through HiScript® II Q RT SuperMix for qPCR (Vazyme, China) according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Exosomal miR-206-3p was extracted by using miRNeasy Serum/Plasma kit (QIAGEN, USA). miR-206-3p expression was detected through the All-in-One miRNA qRT-PCR Detection Kit (GeneCopoeia, USA). Levels of each miRNA or mRNA were normalized to the U6 or GAPDH levels. The primers used are listed in Supplemental Table S1. To normalize miRNA expression, the miR-206-3p levels of exosomes were compared to spiked-in ce-miR-39, which was used as the reference by using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Spike-In Control kit (QIAGEN, USA).
Each experiment was performed three times. Data were quantified using the 2-∆∆CT method.

Total RNA was extracted from cells using Trizol reagent and reverse transcribed using the PrimeScript RT Reagent Kit (Takara Bio, Kusatsu, Japan). miRNAs of purified apoVs were extracted using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma kit (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. miRNAs expression were detected by the All‐in‐One miRNA RT‐qPCR Detection Kit (GeneCopoeia, Rockville, MD). The levels of each mRNA or miRNA were normalized to the GAPDH or U6 levels, respectively, while the miRNAs levels from apoVs were compared to the levels of spiked‐in ce‐miR‐39, which was applied as the reference using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Spike‐In Control kit (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). Each experiment was performed in triplicate. The 2−ΔΔCT method was used to quantify expression of the genes of interest. The primer sequences used in this study are listed in Table S8 (Supporting Information).

RNA was extracted with a Quick-cfRNATM Serum & Plasma Kit (Zymo research, Irvine, CA, USA) combining with miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Spike-In Control kit (Qiagen, Hilden, German) and 100% pure ethanol (Merck Millipore, Germany), following to the protocol recommended by the manufacturers. Briefly, 600 µL of serum were homogeneously mixed with 600 µL of Quick-cfRNATM reagent Digestion Buffer (Zymo research, Irvine, CA, USA). After adding 20 µL Proteinase K (Zymo research, Irvine, CA, USA) the homogenate was incubated for two hours at 37°C, then 10 µL (4×109 ng/µL) synthetic C. elegans miR-39 (Qiagen, Hilden, German) was spiked-in the samples following the adjunction of denaturing solution as an external reference for the normalization of miRNA level. Finally, elution was achieved with a spin column and 100% ethanol and eluted RNA was collected RNase-free water.

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.
