Quantification of bovine cytokine gene expression using real-time RT-PCR methodology
T cells produce cytokines that affect host response to infection. This paper reports real-time RT-PCR conditions and validation steps for accurate quantification of Bos indicus cytokines, interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-8, IL12p-35, IL-13, tumoral necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon (IFN)-γ, monocyte chemoattractant proteins (MCP)-1 and MCP-2, and the glycoprotein mucin (MUC)-1 in two groups of Ne...
متن کاملTissue-specific expression pattern of bovine prion gene: quantification using real-time RT-PCR.
In recent studies PrP mRNA was determined mostly by in situ hybridisation or Northern Blot analysis--methods not suitable for absolute quantification of mRNA copy numbers. Herein we report on bovine prion mRNA quantification using calibrated highly sensitive externally standardized real-time RT-PCR with LightCycler instrument. Total RNA was isolated from nine different regions of the CNS and se...
متن کاملCytokine mRNA quantification by real-time PCR.
Real-time PCR represents a new methodology that accurately quantifies nucleic acids. This has been made possible by the use of fluorogenic probes, which are presented in two forms, namely hydrolysis probes (also called TaqMan probes) and hybridisation probes. We decided to apply this methodology to cytokine mRNA quantification and this led us to the development of a protocol that provides an ea...
متن کاملThe use of real-time reverse transcriptase PCR for the quantification of cytokine gene expression.
Real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is becoming a widely used method to quantify cytokines from cells, tissues, or tissue biopsies. The method allows for the direct detection of PCR product during the exponential phase of the reaction, combining amplification and detection in a single step. Using TaqMan chemistry (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) and the ABI P...
متن کاملReal-time quantification of microRNAs by stem–loop RT–PCR
A novel microRNA (miRNA) quantification method has been developed using stem-loop RT followed by TaqMan PCR analysis. Stem-loop RT primers are better than conventional ones in terms of RT efficiency and specificity. TaqMan miRNA assays are specific for mature miRNAs and discriminate among related miRNAs that differ by as little as one nucleotide. Furthermore, they are not affected by genomic DN...
