Validation of reference genes for quantitative real-time PCR studies in the dentate gyrus after experimental febrile seizures

Abstract: BackgroundQuantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is a commonly used technique to quantify gene expression levels. Validated normalization is essential to obtain reliable qPCR data. In that context, normalizing to multiple reference genes has become the most popular method. However, expression of reference genes may vary per tissue type, developmental stage and in response to experimental treatment. It is therefore imperative to determine stable reference genes for a specific sample set and experimental model. The p… Show more

“…Respecto al tratamiento anticonvulsivante de la crisis este se aplicó a 56,5% de los niños afectados, pero en ninguno se instauró el tratamiento de mantenimiento, a pesar de la amplia aceptación que se tiene de este como profiláctico sobre la repetición de las crisis febriles, porque, exclusivamente un tercio de los niños así tratados repetirán episodios posteriores, se cree que la negativa a la instauración sean los conocidos efectos adversos del uso crónico de dichas drogas y la experticia del galeno ante la particularidad de cada caso respecto a la consideración del riesgo de recurrencia y de desarrollo de secuelas en crisis (17,(31)(32)(33)(34) futuras , pero de ninguna manera debe ignorarse que la presencia de al menos dos de los siguientes antecedentes sí justifica fehacientemente el establecimiento de la terapia de mantenimiento; el inicio de la crisis durante el primer año de vida, las alteraciones en el examen neurológico y/o del desarrollo psicomotor, crisis prolongadas o atípicas, convulsiones previas con o sin fiebre y antecedentes de (15,(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34) convulsiones a febriles en los padres o hermanos .…”

“…La crisis o convulsión febril es el trastorno convulsivo más habitual en los niños, los afecta entre 3% y 5%, y se presenta entre los 3 meses y los 5 años, con mayor asiduidad entre los 14 y 18 meses, (14,15) afectados .…”

“…The candidate reference genes were selected based on previous epilepsy studies, use in other rodent disease models, or use in other model organisms. For example, TBP has been determined to be a stable reference gene in a febrile seizure model used in male Sprague–Dawley rat pups (Swijsen, Nelissen, Janssen, Rigo, & Hoogland, ); NONO has been validated as a stable reference gene in a mouse model of colitis (Eissa, Kermarrec, Hussein, Bernstein, & Ghia, ) and adipocyte cell differentiation (Arsenijevic, Grégoire, Delforge, Delporte, & Perret, ); HPRT1 and TBP have been described as stable genes in the intrahippocampal kainic acid mouse model (Pernot et al, ); and YWHAZ, ACTB , and GAPDH in a nonhuman primate model of Alzheimer disease (Park et al, ). Some of our candidate reference genes ( GAPDH, HPRT, TBP, ACTB, UBC, B2M ) have been used in human epilepsy studies (Wierschke et al, ).…”
