Expression Profiling of Long Noncoding RNA in Plasma and Cell Lines Using the iScript™ Explore One-Step RT and PreAmp Kit

29 Jul 2018

In this application note, a reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) workflow is demonstrated, utilizing the iScript Explore One-Step RT and PreAmp Kit, that is applicable to the discovery and validation of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) biomarkers. The workflow was used to analyze both lncRNA and mRNA in cell-free RNA (cfRNA) isolated from limited amounts of human plasma samples and was also applied to the detection of lncRNA in two common cell lines.

BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :DNA / RNA QuantificationDetection and quantification of nucleic acids is important in molecular biology, cloning, expression, forensics and clinical diagnostics. Nucleic acids can be detected by labeling with colorimetric, fluorescent or radio labels and using in situ hybridization kits to identify specific sequences. Multiple nucleic acids can be detected and quantified at once using RNA / DNA detection beads or RNA / DNA microarrays.
