Expression changes of miR-100 in maturation and cancerous rat liver / 临床与实验病理学杂志

ABSTRACT

Purpose To explore the effect of miR-100 in rat liver development and the occurrence of liver cancer. Methods The liv-er tissues of neonate SD rats, adult SD rats and 2-AAF/PH rats were collected, then real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) and FISH methods were used to detect the expression of miR-100 in the liver tissues. Results The expres-sion level of miR-100 in adult SD rats liver tissues was significantly higher than that in neonate SD rats liver tissues (P<0. 05). Com-pared with the adult rats, the expression level of miR-100 in 2-AAF/PH rats liver tissues was obviously decline (P<0. 05). Conclu-sion miR-100 can as a maker of liver mature, and its deletion maybe related to the tumor formation.
