| Abstract | Accurate quantification depends on normalization of the measured gene expression data. In particular, gene expression studies with exposure to metals are challenging due their toxicity and redox-active properties. Here, we assessed the stability of potential reference genes in three cell lines commonly used to study metal cell metabolism: Caco-2 (colon), HepG2 (liver) and THP-1 (peripheral blood) under copper (Cu) or zinc (Zn) exposure. We used combined statistical tools to identify the best reference genes from a set of eleven candidates, which included traditional “housekeeping” genes such as GAPDH and B-ACTIN, in cell lines exposed to high and low, Zn and Cu concentrations. The expression stabilities of ATP5B (ATP synthase) and CYC1 (subunits of the cytochrome) were the highest considering the effect of Zn and Cu treatments whereas SDHA (succinate dehydrogenase) was found to be the most unstable gene. Even though the transcriptional effect of Zn and Cu is very different in term of redox properties, the same best reference genes were identified when Zn or Cu treatments were analyzed together. Our results indicate that ATP5B/CYC1 are the best candidates for reference genes after metal exposure, which can be used as a suitable starting point to evaluate gene expression with other metals or in different cell types in human models. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
