Total RNA was extracted from PC tissues and cells, and tumor tissues obtained from nude mice by using
TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen). Subsequently, a total of 1 μg RNA was reversed transcribed to cDNA by
PrimeScript RT reagent Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The quantitative analysis of RAB11A mRNA and NORAD were performed by the
SYBR ® Premix Ex Taq™ reagent (TaKaRa) and GAPDH was used as an internal control. The relative expression of miR-30a-5p was analyzed by
SYBR PrimeScript miRNA RT‐PCR Kit (Takara Biotechnology, Dalian, China) with U6 as the internal control. qRT-PCR analysis was performed by
CFX96 qPCR machine (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) with the following steps: an initial denaturation step at 95 °C for 3 min, followed by denaturation at 94 °C for 15 s, annealing at 55 °C for 25 s and extension at 72 °C for 15 s for 35 cycles. The quantification was calculated by the 2
−ΔΔCt method after normalized by internal control. The specific primer sequences used in our study were provided in Additional file
