Pre-TACE plasma samples were collected and stored at −70°C until processing for miRNA analyses. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to identify and quantify the miRNA levels in plasma. Magnetic beads were utilized for miRNA extraction, using the TaqMan® miRNA ABC Purification Kit (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA), according to the manufacturer's instructions. TaqMan® miRNA hsa-miRNA-specific primers (miRNA-29a-3p #002112; Applied Biosystems) and TaqMan® MicroRNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems) were used to identify complementary DNA strands from the isolated miRNAs. An ABI PRISM 7300 instrument (Life Technologies, Foster City, CA, USA) and TaqMan® Universal Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) were used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. The expression levels of miRNA were detected as Ct values, and the relative level of miRNA expression (fold change) was calculated by the 2(−ΔΔCt) method. miRNA-16 was selected as the internal control to normalize miRNA data. Samples from patients with HCC were compared with 5 reference samples obtained from patients with liver cirrhosis. The calculations used were as follows:
The mean was calculated after the qRT-PCR assays were performed in duplicate, using the same ABI PRISM 7300 instrument.

Plasma miRNA Analysis in COPD

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood samples were collected from 20 COPD patients and 20 healthy volunteers at the Binzhou Medical University Hospital. The miRNAs in plasma were isolated using the TaqMan® miRNA ABC Purification Kit (Thermo Fisher, OR, USA). According to the manufacturer’s instruction, 50 μL plasma was mixed with 100 μL ABC buffer and vortexed for 30 s. The sample was placed on ice and added 80 μL Human Panel Beads. The beads were then hybridized with miRNA at 20°C for 40 min. Subsequently, 100 μL wash buffer was used to wash the sample, and miRNA was eluted by 100 μL elution buffer.
The miRNA was then converted to cDNA and downstream analysis by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The microRNA levels of miR-361-5p and miR-196-5p in plasma were evaluated by qRT-PCR. Small nuclear RNA (snRNA) U6 was used as an endogenous control. Levels of miRNAs were normalized to a reference U6. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Binzhou Medical University Hospital and was carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. All the patients and volunteers obtained informed consent for experimentation.

Four patients in T1, T2, T3 or T4 stage (one in each stage) were enrolled for miRNA microarray analysis. The tumor and the paired adjacent tissues from patients were collected for total RNA extraction using TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Total RNA was concentrated in isopropanol, and then the RNA purity was detected using NanoDrop 2000C (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA) and the RNA quality was determined by formaldehyde denatured agarose gel electrophoresis. Then, 50 μg total RNA was purified using a Taqman miRNA ABC purification kit (Thermo Fisher) and hybridized with the beads. The beads were then washed with magnet, and the miRNAs were eluted 3 times to collect the miRNAs. Thereafter, the collected miRNAs were labeled using a miRNA Complete Labeling and Hyb Kit (Agilent, USA). In brief, 100 μg total RNA was incubated in 10 μg Labeling Spike-In at 37 °C for 30 min, treated with DMSO at 16 °C for 2 h, dried in a vacuum concentrator at 45 °C for 3 h, and then treated with Hybridization Mixture and Hyb labeling at 55 °C for 20 h of hybridization. Then, the miRNAs were further hybridized with Human miRNA Microarray Release 14.0,8 (Agilent, USA) and scanned using a SureScan Dx Microarray Scanner (Agilent, USA). The obtained data were subjected to Quality Center analysis and normalization to produce the heatmap for differentially expressed miRNAs.

Total RNA was extracted using an RNAiso Plus kit from Takara (Dalian, China). Total miRNAs were extracted and purified using a TaqMan® miRNA ABC Purification Kit from ThermoFisher Scientific (Carlsbad, CA, USA) (cel-miR-39-3p was added as spike-in as previously reported [20 (link)]). After cDNA of lncRNA-MEG3 was amplified with M-MLV reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), qRT-PCR was carried out using SYBR Green Real-Time PCR Master Mixes (Takara, Dalian, China) (using GAPDH as internal control); to detect the levels of miR-223-3p in serum, the cDNAs were amplified and applied for qRT-PCR analysis using a mirVana™ qRT-PCR miRNA Detection Kit from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA, USA). The primers were designed using the OligoArchitect™ Online service (https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/china-mainland/zh/technical-documents/articles/biology/oligoarchitect-online.html) and miRprimer (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mirprimer/), respectively (Table 2) and synthesized by GenePharma (Shanghai, China).

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.
