Fatness traits are important in pig production since they influence meat quality and fattening
efficiency. On the other hand, excessive fat accumulation in humans has become a serious …

BACKGROUND Proper folliculogenesis is fundamental to obtain a competent oocyte that,
once fertilized, can support the acquisition of embryo developmental competence and …

Abstract Aims Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) may represent a novel class of biomarkers;
therefore, we examined whether acute myocardial infarction (MI) modulates miRNAs plasma …

Abstract Background In eukaryotes, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as critical
regulators of gene expression. The Silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) is one of the most suitable …

More than 99% of ovarian follicles undergo atresia in mammals, but the mechanism of
follicular atresia remains to be elucidated. In this study, we explored microRNA (miRNA) …

MicroRNAs play a fundamental role in retinal development and function. To characterise the
miRNome of the human retina, we carried out deep sequencing analysis on sixteen …

Background: Some promising treatments for Huntington's disease (HD) may require pre-
clinical testing in large animals. Minipig is a suitable species because of its large …

Background The heart responds to myriad stresses by well-described transcriptional
responses that involve long-term changes in gene expression as well as more immediate …

Background Pollen development in flowering plants requires strict control of the gene
expression program and genetic information stability by mechanisms possibly including the …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small∼ 22‐nt regulatory RNAs that regulate the stability and
translation of cognate mRNAs. MiRNAs participate in the regulation of adipogenesis, and …
