LncRNA NORFA promotes the synthesis of estradiol and inhibits the apoptosis of sow ovarian granulosa cells through SF-1/CYP11A1 axis

Biology direct ·doi:10.1186/s13062-024-00563-1

BACKGROUND: Biosynthesis of 17β-estradiol (E2) is a crucial ovarian function in mammals, which is essential for follicular development and pregnancy outcome. Exploring the epigenetic regulation of E2 synthesis is beneficial for maintaining …

SMAD4-induced knockdown of the antisense long noncoding RNA BRE-AS contributes to granulosa cell apoptosis

Molecular therapy. Nucleic acids ·doi:10.1016/j.omtn.2021.05.006

Antisense long noncoding RNAs (AS-lncRNAs), a sub-class of lncRNAs, are transcribed in the opposite direction from their overlapping protein-coding genes and are implicated in various physiological and pathological processes. However, their…
