Dear Researchers,
I am working with miRNAs from the tick's salivary gland, midgut, and saliva to study the involvement of these miRNAs in host-vector interaction for successful blood feeding. Do you know any stable reference genes which I can use for miRNA qPCR data normalization from ticks? I have found EF-1 and Beta Actin genes as the most frequently used reference genes in articles but I will appreciate it if anyone knows the most stable expressed miRNA/other small non-coding RNA which can be used as reference gene for miRNA expression study in ticks.
Thank you very much in advance and looking forward to your information and suggestions.
Best regards,
Parwez
