Regulatory role of lncMD1 in goat skeletal muscle satellite cell differentiation via miR-133a-3p and miR-361-3p targeting.

Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) are pivotal in skeletal muscle development and are influenced by numerous regulatory factors. This study focuses on the regulatory and functional mechanism roles of lncMD1, a muscle-specific long non-coding RNA, in the proliferation and differentiation of goat SMSCs. Employing in vitro cultured goat SMSCs, this study demonstrated that lncMD1, functions as a decoy for miR-133a-3p and miR-361-3p.

Establishment of lncRNA-mRNA network in bovine oocyte between germinal vesicle and metaphase II stage.

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), a type of non-protein coding transcripts with lengths exceeding 200 nucleotides, is reported to be widely involved in many cellular and developmental processes. However, few roles of lncRNA in oocyte development have been defined. In this study, to uncover the effect of lncRNA during oocyte maturation, bovine germinal vesicle (GV) and in vitro matured metaphase II (MII) oocytes underwent RNA sequencing.

Genome-Wide Network of lncRNA-mRNA During Ovine Oocyte Development From Germinal Vesicle to Metaphase II .

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is involved in many biological processes, and it has been closely investigated. However, research into the role of lncRNA in ovine ovarian development is scant and poorly understood, particularly in relation to the molecular mechanisms of ovine oocyte maturation. In the current study, RNA sequencing was performed with germinal vesicle (GV) and in vitro matured metaphase II (MII) stage oocytes, isolated from ewes.

Characterization and differential expression of microRNAs in the ovaries of pregnant and non-pregnant goats (Capra hircus).

Background: Ovarian follicular development and hormone secretion are complex and coordinated biological processes which will usually be altered during pregnancy. Ovarian function is tightly regulated by a multitude of genes, and also by some specific miRNAs. It is necessary to identify the differentially expressed miRNAs in the ovaries of pregnant and non-pregnant mammals, in order to further understand the role of miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation in mammalian reproduction.

[Developmental capacity of reconstructed embryos by transfer with peripheral blood lymphocytes in mouse].

Mouse peripheral blood lymphocytes were used as donor nuclei in nuclear transfer procedures to determine their feasibility. Lymphocytes were collected from peripheral blood by lymphocyte isolation liquid (density 1.088), and transferred into enucleated oocytes by intracytoplasmic injection.
