Quantitative Analysis of miRNA Expression in TNBC

Total RNA was isolated using the mirVana miRNA extraction kit (Ambion, Thermo Fisher Scientific). 500 ng of total RNA were reverse transcribed using the High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription kit for mRNAs (Applied Biosystems, Waltham, MA). Quantitative real-time PCR was performed using a Roche LightCycler 480 Real-Time PCR System (Indianapolis, IN). Each sample was assessed in duplicate and GAPDH or 5S small RNA were used as reference genes for mRNA or miRNA, respectively. The relative quantification of gene expression was calculated using the comparative Ct (2−ΔΔCt) method, as described in our previous publications (17–19). Note that we could not use this method to determine the relative expression of miR-3189-3p in miRNA-transfected TNBC cells compared to control-transfected cells, since the cycle threshold values (Cts) before transfection were > 35 (Fig. 1).

Bar graphs showing cycle threshold values of mature miR-3189-3p expression in MBA-MD-231 (A), MDA-MB-468 (B), and HME1 (C) cells at 24 and 72 h post-transfection. For reference, expression of the small RNA 5S is also indicated

Quantitative RT-PCR: Total RNA was isolated using the miRVana miRNA extraction kit (Ambion, Austin, Tex., USA). RNA was reverse transcribed using the High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription kit for mRNAs or TaqMan assays for microRNAs (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, Calif.). Quantitative real-time PCR was performed in duplicate using a Roche LightCycler 480 Real-Time PCR System (Indianapolis, Ind., USA). Each sample was normalized using GAPDH or RNU6B control (ΔCt) and relative quantification of gene expression was calculated using the comparative Ct (2−ΔΔCt) method, as described in (Eletto et al., (2008) J. Cell. Physiol. 216: 764-770; Pacifici et al., (2013) J. Cell. Physiol. 228: 1070-1075; Rom et al., (2010) FASEB J. 24: 2292-2300 incorporated herein by reference in their entireties). For the clinical samples relative quantification was represented as 1/ΔCt to maintain real differences in Ct values between samples.

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.
