Roles of small RNAs in the effects of nutrition on apoptosis and spermatogenesis in the adult testis
Download2015
Malecki, Irek A., Martin, Graeme B., Cozens, Greg, Hawken, Penelope A.R., Liang, Guanxiang, Guan, Yongjuan, Vercoe, Philip E., Guan, Le Luo
We tested whether reductions in spermatozoal quality induced by under-nutrition are associated with increased germ cell apoptosis and disrupted spermatogenesis, and whether these effects are mediated by small RNAs. Groups of 8 male sheep were fed for a 10% increase or 10% decrease in body mass...

Systematic microRNAome profiling reveals the roles of microRNAs in milk protein metabolism and quality: Insights on low-quality forage utilization
Download2016
Wang, Diming, Sun, Huizeng, Liu, Jianxin, Guan, Le Luo, Wang, Bing, Liang, Guanxiang
In this study, we investigated the molecular regulatory mechanisms of milk protein production in dairy cows by studying the miRNAomes of five key metabolic tissues involved in protein synthesis and metabolism from dairy cows fed high- and low-quality diets. In total, 340, 338, 337, 330, and 328...
