In the past few years, microRNAs with 15-30 nucleotides in length
have been shown to be biologically significant as ubiquitous, versatile
repressors of gene expression. ScienCell Research Laboratories microRNA
is isolated from a wide variety of normal human cell types by the
Ambion’s mirVanaTM miRNA Isolation Kit, which employs an organic
extraction followed by immobilization of RNA on glass-fiber filters to
purify RNA enriched for small species.
HIPSC-HDF miRNA is isolated from one of ScienCell Research
Laboratories human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) lines, which is
derived from human fetal dermal fibroblasts using mRNA reprogramming
technology. The pluripotent stem cells used for microRNA isolation are
maintained as high quality pluripotent stem cells under feeder-free
conditions. HIPSC-HDF miRNA is provided in DEPC-treated water and
ready-to-use.
