Total RNA was extracted from the CC using RNAiso plus reagent (Takara Bio Inc.), according to the manufacturer's recommended protocol. The RNA concentration and quality were measured via spectrophotometry at 260 and 280 nm using a Nanodrop 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.). Then, 1 μg of total RNA was reverse transcribed using ReverTra Ace (Toyobo Co. Ltd), dNTP mixture (Toyobo), RNase inhibitor (Toyobo), and oligo (dT)20 (Toyobo) in a TaKaRa PCR Thermal Cycler PERSONAL (Takara Bio). cDNA samples were diluted five times with RNase‐free water. Real‐time PCR was performed with KAPA SYBR green (KAPA Biosystems Inc.) according to the manufacturer's recommended protocol. All primer sequences are shown in Table 1. Initial denaturation was performed at 95℃ for 3 min using a CFX Connect Real‐Time PCR Detection System (Bio‐Rad Laboratories Inc.). Then, amplification was performed for 40 cycles of 95℃ for 3 s and 60℃ for 30 s. The specificity of each primer was confirmed by melt curve analysis. The data were analyzed using the ΔΔCt method, which indicates relative changes in gene expression normalized to the housekeeping gene, β‐actin.

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.
