Total RNA was prepared using the RNeasy kit with on-column genomic DNA digestion following the manufacturer's instructions (Qiagen). First-strand cDNA was prepared using the QuantiTect Reverse Transcription Kit (Qiagen). Reactions were performed with the PerfeCTa SYBR Green FastMix PCR Reagent (Quanta) using a QuantStudio 3 machine (Applied Biosystems). Results were analyzed using the 2-ddCt method relative to YWHAZ expression. Reactions were carried out from at least three independent experiments. Primer sequences are provided in the Supplementary Information.
