Abstract

In order to improve the production and quality of Chinese cashmere, the research of hair follicle development has aroused more and more attention; the regulation mechanism of miRNA in hair follicle development has become a hot spot. A survey of transcriptome profiling screened 10 hair follicle-related miRNAs that were differentially expressed, including miR-let7a. In this study, the expression of miR-let7a was lower in anagen of hair follicle of cashmere goats than that in catagen of hair follicle of cashmere goats (p < 0.01). Results were in accordance with transcriptome data. The expression patterns of miR-let7a target genes (IGF-1R, C-myc, and FGF5) were verified by qRT-PCR, which were consistent with the results of Western blot and showed a downward trend. The dual-luciferase reporter gene system was used to verify the correlation between the expression of miR-let7a and its target genes, and it showed that miR-let7a negatively correlates with C-myc and FGF5. Present study offers new information on miRNAs and their related target genes in the regulation of hair follicle development mechanism.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 June 2018.
All research outputs
#18,639,173
of 23,090,520 outputs
Outputs from Functional & Integrative Genomics
#298
of 523 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#253,010
of 328,114 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Functional & Integrative Genomics
#7
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,090,520 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 523 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.6. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 328,114 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
