Total miRNA was extracted from tissues using the mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion, Austin, TX, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Real-time PCR assay was performed to detect the expression of miR-150-3p in tissues. Briefly, 10 µg of Micro RNA was subjected to reverse transcription. The cDNA was amplified through PCR and U6 was used as the endogenous control. The PCR primers used were as follows: miR-150 (GenBank accession number NR049590.1) forward, 5-CAG TAT TCT CTC CCA ACC CTT GTA-3 and reverse 5-AAT GGA TGA TCT CGT CAG TCT GTT-3; U6 (GenBank accession number XR003481952.1) forward, 5-ATT GGA ACG ATA CAG AGA AGA TT-3 and reverse, 5-GGA ACG CTT CAC GAA TTT G-357 (link). The PCR conditions were: initial denaturation at 95 °C for 3 min, followed by 40 cycles of 95 °C for 15 s, 62 °C for 30 s, and 72 °C for 30 s57 (link). Real-time PCR was performed using SYBR Green PCR MasterMix (Applied Biosystems) on an ABI 7300HT real-time PCR system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). The expression of U6 was used to normalize the relative expression of miR-150-3p. For the purpose of data analysis, the comparative cycle threshold (CT) method was used.

Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). Complementary DNA was synthesized with Reverse Transcription kit (Applied Biosystems). Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses were performed in triplicate with the SYBR® Green PCR Master Mix (TaKaRa, Otsu, Shiga, Japan) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was used as an internal control. The data analysis was performed using the 2−ΔΔCT method as ΔΔCT = (CTTarget1-CTGAPDH) - (CTTarget2-CTGAPDH).
The miRNA fraction in tumor tissues and cells was extracted with miRNA isolation kit (Applied Biosystems). MiRNA-specific reverse transcription was performed with TaqMan® MicroRNA Reverse Transcription kit (Applied Biosystems). Quantitative RT-PCR was performed using TaqMan® Universal PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) on an ABI 7300HT real-time PCR system (Applied Biosystems), and U6 small nuclear RNA was used as an internal control.

Total RNA was extracted from colon tissue using a total RNA isolation kit (Solarbio Tech Co., Ltd., Beijing, China) following the manufacturer’s instructions, then reverse-transcribed into cDNA using HiScript II reverse transcriptase (EVazyme Biotech Co., Ltd., Nanjing, China). The qPCR primers were designed and synthesized (Genscript, Nanjing, China). The forward and reverse sequences are shown in Table 1. Quantitative real-time PCR reactions were performed using Power Up SYBR Green PCR Master Mix on an ABI 7300 HT Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). The expression of the target genes was normalized to that of GAPDH. Relative expression levels are shown as fold changes relative to the control.

Quantitative PCR for miRNA and mRNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For mRNA and miRNA quantifications, quantitative real-time PCR assay was performed to respectively detect the expression levels of miR-150 and ZEB1 in cell lines and tissues. Briefly, 10 µg of small RNA and 20 µg of total RNA was subjected to reverse transcription. The cDNA was used for the amplification of mature miR-150, ZEB1 and the endogenous controls, U6 and β-actin, by PCR. The PCR primers used were as follows: miR-150 forward, 5′-CAG TAT TCT CTC CCA ACC CTT GTA-3′ and reverse 5′-AAT GGA TGA TCT CGT CAG TCT GTT-3′, U6 forward, 5′-ATT GGA ACG ATA CAG AGA AGA TT-3′ and reverse, 5′-GGA ACG CTT CAC GAA TTT G-3′; ZEB1 forward 5′-CAG GCA GAT GAA GCA GGA TG-3′ and reverse 5′-CAG CAG TGT CTT GTT GTT GTA G-3′; β-actin forward 5′-GGC GGC ACC ACC ATG TAC CCT-3′ and reverse 5′-AGG GGC CGG ACT CGT CAT ACT-3′. The PCR conditions were: initial denaturation at 95°C for 3 min, followed by 40 cycles of 95°C for 15 s, 62°C for 30 s, and 72°C for 30 s.
Real-time PCR was performed using SYBR Green PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) on an ABI 7300HT real-time PCR system (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). Standard curves were generated, and the relative amount of miR-150 or ZEB1 was normalized to the amount of U6 or β-actin, respectively. Relative quantification of target gene expression was evaluated using the 2−△△CT method.

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.
