摘要: 旨在分析不同发育阶段绵羊卵巢组织中miRNA的表达水平,了解miRNA表达及其调控机理。本研究采用转录组测序技术鉴定1和8月龄湖羊卵巢组织中的miRNA,运用生物信息学方法对差异表达的miRNA进行靶基因预测,并对靶基因进行GO和KEGG功能注释,筛选参与卵巢发育的miRNAs。结果显示,6个样品中检测到的已知miRNA个数分别为2 186、2 091、2 217、2 136、2 176、2 088,新miRNA的个数分别为613、567、668、640、662、450。筛选到701个差异表达novel miRNAs,38个差异表达已知miRNAs。对差异表达miRNAs的靶基因进行GO和KEGG分析,发现主要富集在血管内皮生长因子通路和卵巢类固醇生成等过程。对3个差异miRNAs进行qRT-PCR验证,与测序结果一致。oar-let-7b、oar-miR-29a、oar-miR-134-3p、oar-miR-541-3p等的靶基因富集在TGF-beta通路、卵巢卵泡生长等与卵巢发育相关的生物过程。oar-miR-148a、oar-miR-136的靶基因调控颗粒细胞增殖和类固醇生成,可能参与调控绵羊卵巢发育。

Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the expression level of miRNAs in Hu sheep ovaries at different developmental stages and to understand the expression of miRNAs and their regulatory mechanism. In this study, RNA-seq was used to identify miRNAs in ovarian tissues of 1 month and 8 months old Hu sheep. Bioinformatics methods were used to predict target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs. GO and KEGG functional annotations were performed on target genes to screen miRNAs and biological processes involved in ovarian development. The results showed that the numbers of known miRNAs expressed in the 6 samples were 2 186, 2 091, 2 217, 2 136, 2 176 and 2 088, respectively. The number of novel miRNAs was 613, 567, 668, 640, 662 and 450, respectively. 701 novel differentially expressed miRNAs and 38 known differentially expressed miRNAs were identified. GO and KEGG analysis of genes targeting to differentially expressed miRNAs revealed that they mainly were enriched in vascular endothelial growth factor pathway and ovarian steroidogenesis. The qRT-PCR verification result of 3 differential miRNAs was consistent with the sequencing results. Target genes of oar-let-7b, oar-miR-29a, oar-miR-134-3p, oar-miR-541-3p were enriched in the biological processes associated with ovarian development such as TGF-beta signaling pathway and ovarian follicular growth. The target genes of oar-miR-148a and oar-miR-136 regulate granulosa cell proliferation and steroidogenesis. It's inferred that they are involved in the regulation of ovarian development in sheep.
