“…In a previous investigation, we have shown that milk fat miRNA transcriptome closely resemble the miRNome of MG tissue [62]. We collected samples at the lactogenesis (LAC) (day 1 and 7), galactopoiesis (GAL) (day 30, 70, 130, 170 and 230) and involution (INV) (day 290 and when milk production dropped to 5 kg/day) stages from nine cows for deep sequencing [63]. We observed that 15 miRNAs (miR-30a-5p, miR-30d, miR-21-5p, miR-26a, miR-148a, let-7a-5p, let-7b, let-7f, let-7g, miR-99a-5p, miR-191, miR-200a, miR-200c, miR-186, miR-92a) were highly expressed across lactation stages [63].…”
