Real-time PCR was performed using a Bio-Rad iCycler sequence detection system (Bio-Rad). The primers of the VLDL receptor, LDL receptor, and HMGCR are shown in Table 3. The reaction was added to 0.1 mL PCR strip tubes and were set by mixing 12.5 μl iQ™ SYBR® Green Supermix (BIO-RAD), with 1 μl cDNA, 0.5 μl primer (R), 0.5 μl primer (F), and 10.5 μl sterilized water. The plate was sealed and performed using a detector (iQ5 Multicolor Real-Time PCR Detection System). All volumes were normalized to β-actin expression (GenBank accession no. X00351) mRNA. The number of PCR cycles was defined as the mRNA levels and were quantified by use of the CT value [34 (link)].

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.
