Dysfunction of granulosa cells (GCs) leading to follicle atresia has been extensively studied as a major cause of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), but the regulatory role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in this process is still poor…
PROBLEM: For women of reproductive age, achieving a successful pregnancy requires both the normal functioning of reproductive endocrine and the health of the reproductive tract environment. We aimed to study how these fertility factors, suc…
The genetic etiology of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) has been well established to date, however, the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in POI is largely unknown. In this study, we identified a down-expressed lncRNA HCP5 in gran…
Although widely studied in the past decade, our knowledge of the functional role of microRNAs (miRNAs) remains limited. Among the many miRNAs identified in humans, we focus on miR-199a due to its varied and important functions in diverse mo…
