Detecting tRF expression in tissues and cells often involves using tRF-specific stem-loop primers for reverse transcription. However, the high specificity offered by this method limits it to transcribing only one specific tRF sequence per reaction, necessitating separate reverse transcription and qPCR steps for multiple tRFs, leading to substantially increased time and resource consumption. This becomes especially challenging in precious samples with limited RNA availability. To address these issues, there is an urgent need for a universal and cost-effective tRF identification method. This study introduces a versatile tRF detection approach based on the uniform polyadenylation of all tRFs, allowing reverse transcription with a universal oligo(dT) primer.

The increased level of TRIM47 correlated with poor prognosis in patients with OC. Functional assays demonstrated that TRIM47 promoted DDP resistance both in vitro and in vivo. The increased viability and reduced apoptosis of OC cells induced by TRIM47 can be rescued by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress–inducer tunicamycin, suggesting that TRIM47 inhibits OC cell apoptosis by suppressing ER stress.
