cDNA was synthesized using 0.5µg of tissues total RNA and the MMLV reverse transcription Kit, following the manufacturer’s protocol (Promega, Charbonière, France). Gene expression was quantified using real-time PCR with an Applied Biosystems 7300 real-time PCR system. RT-qPCR primers were synthesized, as shown in Table S1. Real-time PCR was performed using 2 μL of cDNA with specific primers targeting the genes of interest and 400 nM of each primer and 4 µL of Fast Eva Green Master Mix (Invitrogen; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) in an 8 µL reaction volume. The cycling conditions were 45 cycles of 95 °C for 15 s, 60 °C for 15 s, and 72 °C for 20 s. mRNA expression (fold induction) was quantified by calculating the 2−ΔΔCT value, with actin mRNA as an endogenous control and the mosquitoes challenged with uninfectious blood meal as control.

To verify the results obtained from the microarray analysis, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was carried out to detect the expression levels of differentially expressed miRNAs. Total RNA from cells was extracted using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and then was subjected to reverse transcription reaction to synthesize cDNA using the MMLV reverse transcription kit (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). qRT-PCR was performed with FS Universal SYBR Green Master (Roche, Foster City, CA, USA) in the ABI PRISM 7500 System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) according to the manufacture's protocol. The bulge-loop miRNA qRT-PCR primer sets (one reverse transcription primer and a pair of quantitative PCR primers for each set) were designed and synthesized by RiboBio (Guangzhou, China). U6 small nuclear RNA was used as an endogenous control. The fold change of miRNA in log 2 scale was calculated by the equation 2−ΔΔCt, where ΔCt = CtmiRNA– CtU6 and ΔΔCt = ΔCttreated samples−ΔCtuntreated controls. Comparisons between groups were done by one-way analysis of variance with Dunnett's post hoc corrections for multiple comparisons. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 16.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). P < 0.05 was considered significant differences.

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.
