Abstract:BackgroundNumerous studies have reported that many long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play multiple essential roles during mammary gland development; however, little is known about their functions and regulatory mechanism.ResultsIn this study, we confirmed a novel lncRNA, MPNCR, that was highly expressed during lactation compared to the dry period in dairy cattle. The potential biological and regulatory functions of MPNCR were explored in bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs). The MTT and EdU assays revealed… Show more
