Serum miRNA Quantification and Normalization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was isolated from the serum using the total RNA purification kit. Briefly, RNA was isolated from 150 μl of serum using the RL buffer washed and eluted in RNAse free water. RNA concentration and purity were quantified using NanoDrop ND-2100 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). To normalize between samples, 3.5 μl Caenorhabditis elegans miR-39 (cel-miR-39) was added to each sample. Immediately after RNA isolation, 5 μl of RNA was reverse transcribed using the microScript microRNA cDNA synthesis kit. cDNA was PCR-amplified (StepOnePlus instrument, Applied Biosystems, USA) using RealQ Plus Master Mix Green, high ROX and miRNA-specific primers for miR-126 and miR-27a. All samples were assayed in duplicate. Relative expression level for a given miRNA was normalized to cel-miR-39 as external control. The expression was calculated as fold change according to the formula: fold change = 2–ΔΔCT in which ΔΔCT = [(CT gene − CT cel − miR − 39)treatment–[CT gene − CT cel − miR − 39)]CTL [33 (link)]. The forward primer sequences of miRs were as follows: miR-126: 5′-TCGTACCGTGAGUTATAATGCG-3′, miR-27a: 5′-TTCACAGTGGCTAAGTTCCGC-3′, and cel-miR-39: 5′-UCACCGGGUGUAAAUCAGCUUG-3′.
We used a universal primer that was supplied by the company as reverse in the reactions.

Total RNAs were isolated from liver tissues and quantified by the NanoDrop ND-2100 (Thermo Scientific). After the control of RNA integrity using Agilent 2100 (Agilent Technologies), total RNAs were tailed with Poly A, labeled with Biotin, and then hybridized for 16 hrs at 48°C on Affemetrix miRNA 3.0 Array. GeneChips were washed and stained in the Affymetrix Fluidics Station 450. The arrays were scanned by the Affymetrix Scanner 3000 (Affymetrix) and the array images were analyzed using Affymetrix GeneChip Command Console 4.0 software (Affymetrix) to get raw data and then provide RMA normalization. Using Genespring 12.5 software (Agilent Technologies), the probes that at least 75% of samples in any 1 condition out of 2 conditions have flags in “P” were chosen for further data analysis. The differentially expressed miRNAs, with a fold change>= 2.0 and a P value < 0.05 between the groups PH-0h and PH-48h, were chosen for further validation using qRT-PCRs. The MIAME-compliant data have been submitted to Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, platform ID: GSE68451).

RNA Extraction and Microarray Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted using the TRIzol reagent (15596018; Invitrogen, New York, USA) following the manufacturer’s protocols. The quality of the purified RNA was assessed using an Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, California, USA). Total RNA was quantified using NanoDrop Nd-2100 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Massachusetts, USA), and RNA integrity was detected using an Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies). After passing the quality inspection, the samples were labeled, hybridized, and eluted according to the chip’s standard process. The original images were then scanned using an Affymetrix Scanner 3000 (Affymetrix, USA), and the images were analyzed using Expression Console (version 1.3.1, Affymetrix) data analysis software, converting the resulting raw data into range migration algorithm (RMA) normalized algorithm signal values. The expression patterns of RNAs (microRNA/miRNA/miR) among samples were analyzed by hierarchical cluster analysis. Meanwhile, we used quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT‑PCR) to verify the expression of key miRNAs in different experimental groups. miRNAs exert their regulatory function by limiting the expression of their target. Hence, we queried the target genes of miR-221-3p using the TargetScan database (http://www.targetscan.org/vert) and found that P27 and miR-221-3p had good complementarity in both humans and rats.

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.
