Pattern | We used qRT-PCR to quantitate elt-2 mRNA levels in wild-type animals during aging. We first used qRT-PCR to compare elt-2 RNA levels in young (L4 larval stage) versus old (day 13 of adulthood) wild-type hermaphrodites. We used six reference genes (let-70, tbb-2, htz-1, pmp-3, Y45F10D.4, cdc-42) as controls, and observed, on average, a two-fold reduction in elt-2 expression in day 13 adults. We then repeated the qRT-PCR experiment to measure elt-2 expression at L4, day 3, day 6, day 9, and day 12 of adulthood using only tbb-2 as a control, and observed a two-fold reduction in elt-2 levels by day 3 of adulthood. | Primary Identifier | Expr15740 |
