Circulating levels and the bioactivity of miR-30b increase during pubertal progression in boys
19 Jan 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background Puberty marks the transition from childhood to adulthood and is initiated by activation of a pulsatile GnRH secretion from the hypothalamus. MKRN3 functions as a pre-pubertal break on the GnRH pulse generator and hypothalamic expression and circulating levels of MKRN3 decrease peri-pubertally. In rodents, microRNA miR-30b seems to directly target hypothalamic MKRN3 expression – and in boys, circulating...
