Resumo: The validation of reference genes is an essential step for any RT-qPCR analysis. In this way, the present paper aimed to identify and validate reference genes for RT-qPCR in cardiac tissue of rats of the Rattus norvegicus albinus specie, submitted to obesity associated or not to type 2 diabetes mellitus. For this, the metabolic changes were induced at the 42nd day of life and the euthanasia was performed on the 70th day. The heart apexes were collected and destinates for RNA extraction. The RT-qPCR technique was performed in own thermocycler, the efficiency of the primers found by the LinReg software and the stability of the expression of the reference genes in the samples was analyzed by the RefFinder algorithm. The candidates for reference genes were GAPDH, POLR2A, RPL32, and RPL4 and the target gene used to verify the differences in gene expression of candidates for reference genes was CMA1. The obese animals showed a decrease in CMA1 gene expression when compared to the two most stable reference genes. The opposite occurs when it is compared to the two less stable reference genes. The GAPDH and POLR2A genes are the best to normalize the reactions with the samples in question. There is no universal reference gene for all situations, which requires systematic validation for each situation. The use of unvalidated reference genes may compromise the interpretation of the expression of the target genes, which would prevent the reflection of the actual situation.

El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo identificar y validar genes de referencia para RT-qPCR en tejido cardíaco de ratas de la especie Rattus norvegicus albinus, sometidas a obesidad asociada o no a diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Fueran introducidos los cambios metabólicos a los 42 días de vida y se realizó la eutanasia a los 70 días. Los ápices del corazón fueran destinados a la extracción de RNA. La técnica RT-qPCR se realizó en termociclador propio, la eficiencia de los cebadores encontrados por el software LinReg y la estabilidad de la expresión de los genes de referencia en las muestras se analizó mediante el algoritmo RefFinder. Los candidatos a genes de referencia fueron GAPDH, POLR2A, RPL32 y RPL4, y el gen diana utilizado para verificar las diferencias en la expresión génica de los candidatos a genes de referencia fue CMA1. Los animales obesos mostraron una disminución en la expresión del gen CMA1 en comparación con los dos genes de referencia más estables. Lo contrario ocurre cuando se compara con los dos genes de referencia menos estables. Los genes GAPDH y POLR2A son los mejores para normalizar las reacciones con las muestras en cuestión. No existe un gen de referencia universal, lo que requiere una validación sistemática para cada situación. El uso de genes de referencia no validados puede comprometer la interpretación de la expresión de los genes diana, lo que evitaría el reflejo de la situación real.A validação dos genes de referência é uma etapa essencial para qualquer análise de RT-qPCR. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo identificar e validar genes de referência para RT-qPCR em tecido cardíaco de ratos da espécie Rattus norvegicus albinus, submetidos à obesidade associada ou não ao diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Para isso, as alterações metabólicas foram induzidas no 42º dia de vida e a eutanásia foi realizada no 70º dia. Os ápices cardíacos foram coletados e destinam-se à extração de RNA. A técnica de RT-qPCR foi realizada em termociclador próprio, a eficiência dos primers encontrados pelo software LinReg e a estabilidade da expressão dos genes de referência nas amostras foram analisadas pelo algorítmo RefFinder. Os candidatos a genes de referência foram GAPDH, POLR2A, RPL32 e RPL4 e o gene alvo usado para verificar as diferenças na expressão gênica dos candidatos a genes de referência foi CMA1. Os animais obesos apresentaram uma diminuição na expressão do gene CMA1 quando comparados aos dois genes de referência mais estáveis. O oposto ocorre quando comparado aos dois genes de referência menos estáveis. Os genes GAPDH e POLR2A são os melhores para normalizar as reações com as amostras em questão. Não há gene de referência universal para todas as situações, o que requer validação sistemática para cada situação. O uso de genes de referência não validados pode comprometer a interpretação da expressão dos genes alvo, o que impediria a reflexão da situação real.Research, Society and Development2020-11-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/970210.33448/rsd-v9i11.9702Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 11; e1599119702Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 11; e1599119702Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 11; e15991197022525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/9702/8637Copyright (c) 2020 Marina Martins de Oliveira; Kalynka Gabriella do Livramento; Maísa Lamounier Magalhães; Luciano Vilela Paiva; Ana Paula Peconickhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Marina Martins deLivramento, Kalynka Gabriella doMagalhães, Maísa LamounierPaiva, Luciano VilelaPeconick, Ana Paula2020-12-10T23:37:57Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/9702Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:31:55.144238Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
