MicroRNA-21 and PDCD4 expression during in vitro oocyte maturation in pigs
16 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA) are small non-coding RNA molecules critical for regulating cellular function, and are abundant in the maturing oocyte and developing embryo. MiRNA-21 (MIR21) has been shown to elicit posttranscriptional gene regulation in several tissues associated with rapid cell proliferation in addition to demonstrating anti-apoptotic features through interactions with PDCD4 mRNA and other targets....
