Following the manufacturer’s instructions, total RNA was extracted by the RNeasy kit Mini Kit (Qiagen, Dusseldorf, Germany). Briefly, 2μg RNA was transformed into cDNA by reverse transcription reaction with random primers (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). The qPCR was performed on cDNA using TransStart® SYBR Green qPCR SuperMix (TransGen, Beijing, China) on a StepOnePlus™ Real-Time PCR System (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The primers were listed as follows: BASP1 forward: 5’-GCCCAGGAGACCAAAAGTGA-3’, BASP1 reverse: 5’-CCTTGGGTGTGGAACTAGGC-3’; GAPDH forward: 5’-CTCCTCCTGTTCGACAGTCAGC-3’, GAPDH reverse: 5’-CCCAATACGACCAAATCCGTT-3’. GAPDH was used as the endogenous control. The ΔΔCt was used to calculate the relative mRNA expression.

RNA was extracted from exponentially growing cells using the RNeasy kit Mini Kit from Qiagen according to manufacturer’s instructions. 2 μg of total RNA was put into reverse transcription reactions using random primers for amplification (iScript™ cDNA Synthesis Kit-Bio-Rad). qPCR reactions were performed on the 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System using gene specific TaqMan probes or specific primers in a SYBR GREEN reaction to detect expression levels. Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) expression was used for normalization. The following TaqMan probes were used: Acsl3: Mm01255804_m1; Lpcat3: Mm00520147_m1; Pparγ: Mm00440940_m1; Hprt: Mm00446968_m1. The following primers were used for Acsl5 (Forward: 5′-CTGATCTGCCTCCTGACGTTTGGAA-3′; Reverse: 5′-ACAACGTCTTGGCGTCTGAGAAGT-3′) and Hprt (Forward: 5′-AGCTACTGTAATGATCAGTCAACG-3′; Reverse: 5′-AGAGGTCCTTTTCACCAGCA-3′).

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.
