Characterization and comparative profiling of ovarian microRNAs during ovine anestrus and the breeding season
15 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Seasonal estrus is a critical limiting factor of animal fecundity, and it involves changes in both ovarian biology and hormone secretion in different seasons. Previous studies indicate that two classes of small RNAs (miRNAs and piRNAs) play important regulatory roles in ovarian biology. To understand the roles of small RNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in ovine seasonal estrus, the...
