Stability of cell-free RNAs in body cavity effusion samples. Effusion samples (n = 3) was subjected to 10 freeze-thaw cycles (A), room temperature conservation for 3 h or 24 h (B) and RNase or DNase digestion for 3 h at 37°C (C). Total RNA was extracted from the effusion samples. The levels of miRNA or other RNAs were determined using qRT-PCR with 40 cycles. Column, relative expression levels of RNA compared to samples without treatment; bars, SD; ACTB: β-actin.
