RNA was extracted and isolated from rat myocardial tissue by homogenization, centrifugation and dissolution. A PCR tube was taken, a solution containing more than 100 ng of RNA was added as a template for reverse transcription, and 1 µl of reverse transcription primer was added for reverse transcription. This process was performed according to the instructions of RevertAid First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit from TransGen Biotech Co. (Beijing, China). qRT-PCR analysis was then performed using the ABI Prism 7000 system (Abcam, Fremont, CA, USA) to detect mRNA expression. The relative mRNA expression levels of each molecule were normalized by subtracting the corresponding GAPDH threshold cycle (CT), which was performed using the ΔΔCT comparison method. A list of real-time PCR primer sequences is presented in Table 1.

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.
