We examined a panel of 26 melanoma and fibroblast samples (tissues and cultured cells) to evaluate the suitability of two commonly used housekeeping genes, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), for quantitative real-time PCR. Both genes showed significant variations within the individual cell line and tissue groups. Although no overall trends were observed in the expression of the 18S rRNA, GAPDH was up-regulated in melanoma tissue and cultured cells compared with the corresponding normal samples. In melanoma and fibroblast cell lines and tissues, absolute quantification appears to be more appropriate than normalizing messenger RNA (mRNA) expression via GAPDH or 18S rRNA housekeeping genes. 相似文献

The aims of the present study were (i) to develop and test a sensitive and reproducible method for the study of gene expression in staphylococci and (ii) to study the expression of five housekeeping genes which are involved in nucleic acid metabolism (gmk, guanylate kinase; the dihydrofolate reductase [DHFR] gene), glucose metabolism (tpi, triosephosphate isomerase), and protein metabolism (the 16S rRNA gene; hsp-60, heat-shock protein 60) during in vitro exponential and stationary growth. A modified method for instant mRNA isolation was combined with gene quantification via Taqman real-time quantitative PCR. The detection limit of our method was 10 copies of RNA. The average intersample variability was 16%. A 10-fold increase in the expression of the hsp-60 gene was induced by exposure to a 10 degrees C heat shock (37 to 47 degrees C) for 10 min. During in vitro growth, the expression of all five housekeeping genes showed rapid up-regulation after inoculation of the bacteria in brain heart infusion medum and started to decline during the mid-exponential-growth phase. Maximal gene expression was 110- to 300-fold higher than gene expression during stationary phase. This indicates that housekeeping metabolism is a very dynamic process that is extremely capable of adapting to different growth conditions. Expression of the 16S rRNA gene decreases significantly earlier than that of other housekeeping genes. This confirms earlier findings for Escherichia coli that a decline in bacterial ribosomal content (measured by 16S rRNA gene expression) precedes the decline in protein synthesis (measured by mRNA expression). 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to test the influence of obesity and the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on the expression of ten housekeeping genes and of the 18S rRNA in a group of human adipose tissue samples from the omental and subcutaneous depot. Adipose tissue biopsies were obtained by laparoscopic surgery from lean and obese patients. After the extraction, mRNA levels in adipose tissue samples were quantified by real-time PCR using the commercial HUMAN ENDOGENOUS CONTROL PLATES. From the genes analyzed, 18S rRNA exhibited the most stable expression levels in both depots regardless of the pathophysiological conditions of obesity and obesity-associated T2DM. Contrarily, GAPD was the gene with the highest variation in its expression levels, being upregulated (8.0-fold) in the obese group and downregulated (3.5-fold) in obesity-associated T2DM. Our results show that 18S rRNA may be the most suitable gene for normalization in expression studies performed in human adipose tissue samples obtained from patients suffering from obesity and/or obesity-associated T2DM, whereas GAPD is less appropriate for comparison purposes under these circumstances. 相似文献

Background
Several genes have been used as housekeeping genes and choosing an appropriate reference gene is important for accurate quantitative RNA expression in real time RT-PCR technique. The expression levels of reference genes should remain constant between the cells of different tissues and under different experimental conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different experimental treatments on the expression of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) mRNA so that the reliability of GAPDH as reference gene for quantitative real time RT-PCR in human diploid fibroblasts (HDFs) can be validated. HDFs in 4 different treatment groups viz; young (passage 4), senescent (passage 30), H2O2-induced oxidative stress and γ-tocotrienol (GTT)-treated groups were harvested for total RNA extraction. Total RNA concentration and purity were determined prior to GAPDH mRNA quantification. Standard curve of GAPDH expression in serial diluted total RNA, melting curve analysis and agarose gel electrophoresis were used to determine the reliability of GAPDH as reference gene. 相似文献16.

鳜鱼基因表达转录分析中的内参选择比较 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
目前基因表达的转录分析多采用单一或多个看家基因作为内参来校正目的基因的表达量。该实验以鳜鱼6个不同组织和5个不同胚胎发育阶段为研究对象,应用实时荧光定量PCR技术,观察了GAPDH、β-actin和18S rRNA三个看家基因mRNA水平的表达情况。geNorm统计分析表明,胚胎发育阶段β-actin表达最为稳定;不同的组织样品间,GAPDH表达最为稳定;而18S rRNA 的表达在不同的发育阶段不稳定。当利用多基因作为内参时,使用两个最稳定表达的看家基因即可对目的基因的表达进行准确校正。该结果证实了基因表达转录分析中内参基因选择的必要性,同时为鳜鱼等鱼类基因表达分析时内参基因的选择提供有价值的参考 相似文献

Validation of endogenous controls for gene expression studies in human adipocytes and preadipocytes.
Quantitative gene expression protocols require adequate controls to monitor intersample variation. Quantitative approaches to describe relative changes in gene expression use endogenous controls--"housekeeping" genes. Given the low amounts of mRNA in fat cells, RT-PCR is the method of choice, and housekeeping genes are widely used as endogenous controls. However, literature reports suggest changes in gene expression of typical housekeeping genes (e. g. GAPDH, beta-actin, 18S rRNA) upon hormonal stimulation or during adipogenic differentiation. Thus, we tested the influence of 6 hormones and adipogenic differentiation on gene expression levels of 11 commonly used housekeeping genes in primary cultured mature human adipocytes and preadipocytes. Using the TaqMan RT-PCR technique and "Human Endogenous Control Assays" (PE Biosystems), we found several housekeeping genes with at least twice the difference in expression levels between stimulated and unstimulated cells (such as acidic ribosomal protein, beta-actin, beta(2)-microglobulin and beta-glucuronidase). Only GAPDH and transferrin receptor gene expression levels did not change under any of the stimuli tested, thus appeared best suited for gene expression studies in human adipose cells across a wide range of experimental settings. 相似文献
