The following conditions were used: initial denaturation and enzyme activation (one cycle at 95 °C for 3 min); denaturation, amplification, and quantification (45 cycles at 95 °C for 30 s, 58 °C for 20 s, and 72 °C for 45 s); and a melting curve (55 °C, with the temperature gradually increased 0.5 °C up to 95 °C). The amplified samples were analyzed by standard agarose gel electrophoresis. mRNA expression was normalized to the level of β-actin mRNA. Changes in mRNA expression were calculated according to the 2-ΔΔCT method (CT, cycle threshold), with ΔCT=CTtarget gene - CTactb and ΔΔCT=ΔCTtreatment - ΔCTcontrol.

Quantification of mtDNA copy number was performed by real-time PCR. mtDNA was isolated from gastrocnemius muscle tissues and L6 cells using a Mito DNA Extraction Kit (Genmed Scientifics Inc., USA). DNA was quantified spectrophotometrically (260 nm) and subjected to quantitative real-time PCR (100 ng/reaction; SYBR Green I fluorescent RT-PCR protocol, PE Biosystems) in a single color real-time PCR detection system (BIO-RAD, USA). Relative amounts of mtDNA were determined by comparing their amplification products to those of β-actin (forward: 5'-CCACCATGTACCCAGGCATT-3'; reverse: 5'-CGGACTCATCGTACTCCTGC-3') and cytochrome b (forward: 5'- AACGCCAACCCTAGACAACC -3'; reverse: 5'- GAGATGTTAGATGGGGCGGG -3').

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.
