Quantifying HOTAIR and miR-17-5p Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The concentration and purity of RNA were measured by NanoDrop spectrophotometer, and then the RNA was reversely transcribed into cDNA using reverse transcription kit (Takara, Dalian, China). Then, 1 μg of cDNA in each group was then used as the template to amplify the target genes. qRT-PCR was conducted on ABI 7900 Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystem, Foster City, CA, USA) with SYBR Green Master Mix kit (Takara, Otsu, Japan). The relative expressions of HOTAIR and miR-17-5p were calculated using the 2 −ΔΔCT method. The primer sequences are shown in Table 1.

CD44loCD5loLy6C, CD44loCD5hiLy6C, and CD44loCD5hiLy6C+ CD8+ TN cells were sorted from pulled spleens and LNs. RNA was isolated with NuleoZOL (Macherey-Nagel) and extracted RNA was measured by NanoDrop and 1 μg of RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA with M-MLV reverse transcriptase and oligo dT (TAKARA), following manufacturer’s instructions. Real-time RT-PCR was performed with the TaqMan Gene Expression Master Mix using StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System version 2.2.2 (Applied Biosystems). The following TaqMan probes (Applied Biosystems) were used: Rorc (Mm01261022), Il17a (Mm00439618), Irf4 (Mm0516431), Ifnγ (Mm01168134), Tbx21 (Mm0045960), Eomes (Mm01351984), and Rn18sRn45s (Mm03928990). The expression level was calculated as 2-DCT, where DCT is the difference between the CT values of the target gene and 18S.

Total RNA was extracted using the CTAB method [50 (link)]. RNA concentration was measured with NanoDrop, and first-strand cDNA was synthesized using a reverse transcription kit (Takara, Dalian, China). cDNA was diluted 10 times and used as the template. The data were normalized using the reference gene Fraxinus mandshurica α-tublin [1 (link), 51 (link)], Gene-specific primers for RT-qPCR analysis were listed in Additional file 1. For fluorescence qPCR, a SYBR Green (TOYOBO) kit was used. PCR was performed in a 20 μL reaction volume containing 6.4 μL of sterile distilled water, 10 μL of THUNDERBIRD SYBR qPCR Mix, 0.6 μL each of upstream and downstream primers, 0.4 μL of 50 × ROX reference dye, and 2 μL of cDNA template. Fluorescence qPCR was performed on the Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time PCR System [1 (link)]. The reaction conditions were as follows: 95 °C for 30 s, 40 cycles of 95 °C for 5 s and 60 °C for 34 s, 95 °C for 15 s, 60 °C for 1 min, and 95 °C for 15 s. All reactions were repeated three times. The y = log2ΔCT(control)-log2ΔCT(treatment) algorithm was chosen for the expression pattern of the FmSPLs gene under different abiotic stresses and hormone induction. The y = 2−ΔΔCT algorithm was chosen for the expression pattern of FmSPLs in the physical state. All data were processed with SPSS 22.

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.
