Abstract:
Expression levels of TGF-β1 mRNA in renal cortex of control group, diabetic group and taurine group measured by real-time quantitative RT-PCR were (7.0±0.8)×10 -3, (64.4±8.0)×10 -3 and (16.7±2.0)×10 -3, respectively. The corresponding results with end-point RT-PCR method were 0.28±0.12,0.58±0.16 and 0.43±0.10, respectively. Compared with end-point RT-PCR method, real-time quantitative with SYBR Green I was easier, faster, sensitive and specific.
