  • expression and preliminary functional profiling of the let 7 family during porcine Ovary Follicle Atresia
    Molecules and Cells, 2015
    Co-Authors: Rui Cao, Xiaolong Zhou, Peng Xiao, Yi Wang, Hong Lin Liu
    Abstract:

    Most Follicles in the mammalian Ovary undergo Atresia. Granulosa cell apoptosis is a hallmark of Follicle Atresia. Our previous study using a microRNA (miRNA) microarray showed that the let-7 microRNA family was differentially expressed during follicular Atresia. However, whether the let-7 miRNA family members are related to porcine (Sus scrofa) Ovary follicular apoptosis is unclear. In the current study, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction showed that the expression levels of let-7 family members in Follicles and granulosa cells were similar to our microarray data, in which miRNAs let-7a, let-7b, let-7c, and let-7i were significantly decreased in early atretic and progressively atretic porcine Ovary Follicles compared with healthy Follicles, while let-7g was highly expressed during Follicle Atresia. Furthermore, flow cytometric analysis and Hoechst33342 staining demonstrated that let-7g increased the apoptotic rate of cultured granulosa cells. In addition, let-7 target genes were predicted and annotated by TargetScan, PicTar, gene ontology and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathways. Our data provide new insight into the association between the let-7 miRNA family in granulosa cell programmed death.
