Circulating microRNAs: Understanding the Limits for Quantitative Measurement by Real‐Time PCR
E ver since the discovery of small, non-coding RNAs in circulation, microRNAs have gained significant attention as biomarkers or, in some instances, regulators of disease and/or associated complications. Until now, most articles published use real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) for assessment of circulating RNAs as microarray-based methods have low reproducibility. Real-time qPCR technology provi...
متن کاملTelomere measurement by quantitative PCR.
It has long been presumed impossible to measure telomeres in vertebrate DNA by PCR amplification with oligonucleotide primers designed to hybridize to the TTAGGG and CCCTAA repeats, because only primer dimer-derived products are expected. Here we present a primer pair that eliminates this problem, allowing simple and rapid measurement of telomeres in a closed tube, fluorescence-based assay. Thi...
متن کاملQuantitative RT-PCR: limits and accuracy.
In this paper we determine the limits and accuracy of quantitative reverse transcription (RT)-PCR using a modification of the original protocol. The quantification of mRNA with this procedure requires a preliminary estimation of the target molecule (TM) concentration, established from experiments with an internal control molecule (ICM). A definitive quantification is then attained from serial d...
متن کاملmicroRNAs as reference genes for quantitative PCR in cotton
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is the most important non-food plant in the world. Studies concerning the fiber quality and plant fitness of cotton at molecular level depend on high sensitive and reproducible gene-expression assays. However, only a few reports have described genes suitable for normalizing gene expression data. In this study, we report for the first time that microRNAs (miRNAs) are ...
متن کاملSensitive PCR-based quantitation of cell-free circulating microRNAs.
Cell-free microRNAs (miRNAs) that circulate in the blood are promising surrogate biomarkers of disease and physiological processes. The ease of quantifying specific miRNA species using made-to-order approaches based on Taq-polymerase has led to numerous studies that have identified changes in the abundance of circulating cell-free miRNA species that correlate with pathology or other events. The...
