AbstractBackgroundQuantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) are methods used for gene expression analysis in several contexts, including reproductive endocrinology.ObjectivesHerein, we compared qPCR and ddPCR technologies for gene expression analysis of hormone membrane receptor-encoding genes, such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSHR), G protein-coupled estrogen (GPER) and choriogonadotropin receptors (LHCGR), as well as the commonly used RPS7 housekeeping gene, in order to identify the most reliable method to be applied for gene expression analysis in the context of human reproduction.MethodsTotal RNA was extracted from human primary granulosa cells of donor patients undergoing assisted reproduction and used for gene expression analysis by qPCR and ddPCR, after finding the optimal annealing temperature.ResultsBoth techniques provided results reflecting the low number of FSHR and GPER transcripts, although ddPCR detected also unspecific transcripts in using RPS7 primers and quantified the low-expressed genes with major accuracy, thanks to its higher reaction efficiency. The absolute FSHR and GPER transcript number was also determined by ddPCR, resulting in 50- to 170-fold lower amount than LHCGR transcripts.ConclusionThese results suggest that ddPCR is the candidate technology for analysis of genes with relatively low expression levels and provides useful insights for characterizing hormone receptor expression levels in the context of reproductive endocrinology.
