To measure gene expression levels, SHP-77 cells (105 cells harvested at 24 h post-transfection) and tissue samples (0.03 g tissue ground in liquid nitrogen) were subjected to total RNA extractions using Ribozol (Sigma-Aldrich). To harvest miRNAs, 85% of ethanol was used to precipitate RNA samples. All RNA samples were treated with DNase I for 2 h at 37 °C to digest genomic DNAs.

RNA samples with an OD 260/280 ratio ~2.0 (pure RNA) were reverse transcribed using the PrimeScript RT Reagent kit (Takara Bio, Inc.). The detailed workflow was as follows: 37°C For 15 min and 85°C for 5 sec then maintained at 4°C. Then the qPCR assays performed using SYBR-Green RT-PCR kit (Vazyme Biotech Co., Ltd.) to measure the expression levels of GABPB1-IT1 and PEDF mRNA. The detailed workflow was as follows: 95°C For 10 min, 40 cycles of 95°C for 15 sec and 60°C for 45 sec, final annealing at 72°C for 10 min. The expression levels of mature miR-93 were measured using the All-in-One™ miRNA RT-qPCR Detection kit (GeneCopoeia, Inc.). U6 and GAPDH were used as the endogenous controls of miR-93 and PEDF, respectively. PCR reactions were performed in triplicate and Cq values were processed using the Δ-Δq (ΔΔCq) method (18 (link)).

Tissue samples were ground in liquid nitrogen using mortar and pestle, followed by homogenization in Ribozol (N580-CA, Amresco) using a polytron homogenizer. Pelleted cultured cells were re-suspended in Ribozol. RNA was isolated by adding chloroform (C2432, Sigma) to the tissue/cell-Ribozol suspension following the manufacturer’s directions. The RNA was resuspended in 20 µL nuclease free water (AM9939, Ambion). RNA quality and quantity was assessed using a QIAxcel Advanced System (Qiagen) and QIAxcel RNA QC Kit v2.0 (Qiagen). From 1 µg of RNA as a template first-strand cDNA was synthesized using qScript cDNA supermix (CA101414-104, Quanta Biosciences). The reverse transcriptase reaction sequence consisted of incubation at 25 °C for 5 min, followed by incubation at 42 °C for 30 min and reverse transcriptase enzyme inactivation by incubation at 85 °C for 5 min. Resulting cDNA samples were stored at −20 °C until further analysis.

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.
