Importance of suitable reference gene selection for quantitative RT-PCR during ATDC5 cells chondrocyte differentiation.

Real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is an efficient and accurate method to detect and compare patterns of gene expression. The reliability of qPCR is highly dependent on the selection of appropriate reference genes used for normalization. By analyzing 16 pot...
