Melatonin is an endocrine neurohormone secreted by pinealocytes in the pineal gland. It exerts diverse physiological effects, such as circadian rhythm regulator and antioxidant. However, the functional importance of melatonin in spermatogenesis regulation remains unclear. The objectives of this study are to: (1) detect melatonin affection on miRNA expression profiles in GC-1 spg cells by miRNA deep...
Infection with the orf virus (ORFV) leads to contagious ecthyma, also called contagious pustular dermatitis, which usually affects sheep, goats and other small ruminants. It has a great distribution throughout the world and has also been reported to infect humans. Though many strains have been isolated from differing parts of mainland China, rarely has any strain been reported from the southern provinces...
Atherosclerosis (AS) is the leading cause of death in modern societies. Active substance from Traditional Chinese Medicine has been used for the treatment of AS, such as ligustrazine and puerarin. However, the pathogenesis of AS and the curative mechanisms of ligustrazine and puerarin stay unclear. In this work, we attempted to figure out these questions using a rat AS model and digital gene expression...
Mouse ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) is a single layer of cubodial epithelial cells that covers the ovary surface and is involved in regulating the secretion and transport of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Recently, OSE cells have attracted particular interest as a major source of ovarian cancer. Death-associated protein DAXX along with PML (promyelocytic leukemia protein) nuclear bodies (PML-NBs)...

Transposable elements (TE) are functionally important genetic elements that can move within a genome. Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) constitute a class of transposable elements that are usually small in size and have high numbers of conserved copies. Identifying all the MITEs in a genome could provide new insights about gene evolution and genome dynamics of the organism. We...
