Project description:The analysis of differentially regulated mRNAs candidates in THP-1 cells infected with H37Rv was conducted, comparing them to both uninfected THP-1 cells and transfected reference samples. THP-1 cells are monocytes that differentiate into macrophages after being treated with PMA for 48 hours. Total RNA was isolated from the infected and transfected THP-1 cells at 24 hours post-infection.

THP-1 cells are monocytes differentiated to macrophages after treatment with PMA for 48 hrs. Total RNA was isolated from infected THP-1 cells after 24 hrs of infection, cDNA was synthesized for TLDA real time PCR reaction using TaqMan MicroRNA Reverse Transcription kit and Megaplex Human Pool A and Pool B stem loop RT primers (version 3.0) as per manufacturer’s protocol. Further real time reaction was performed on QuantStudio 12K Flex Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems) by using cDNA (without pre-amplification) on TLDA card A and card B (version 3.0).
