RT-qPCR requires a suitable set of internal control genes (ICGs) for an accurate normalization. The usefulness of 7 previously published ICGs in the human placenta was analyzed according to the effects of betamethasone treatment, sex and fetal age. Raw RT-qPCR data of the ICGs were evaluated using published algorithms. The algorithms revealed that a reliable normalization was achieved using the geometrical mean of PPIA, RPL19, HMBS and SDHA. The use of a different subset ICGs out of the 7 investigated, although not statistically affected by the conditions, biased the results, as demonstrated through changes in expression of glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) mRNA as a target gene.
逆转录定量聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)需要一组合适的内参基因(ICGs)来进行准确的标准化。根据倍他米松治疗、性别和胎龄的影响,分析了7个先前发表的人胎盘内参基因的实用性。使用已发表的算法评估内参基因的原始RT-qPCR数据。这些算法表明,使用PPIA、RPL19、HMBS和SDHA的几何平均值可实现可靠的标准化。在所研究的7个内参基因中使用不同的子集,尽管不受这些条件的统计学影响,但会使结果产生偏差,这通过作为靶基因的糖皮质激素受体(NR3C1)mRNA表达的变化得到了证明。
