ABSTRACT
Objective To screen for microRNA (miRNA) involved in fetal rat lung development.Methods Fetal lungs were collected at their 16 d,19 d and 21 d of gestational age,and were observed after HE staining.Differentially expressed miRNA (fold change> 1.0) were screened by miRCURYTM locked nucleic acids chip.Some differentially expressed miRNA were selected for further analysis to investigate their change trends in 16 d,19 d and 21 d of gestational age.Results (1) Under the observation after HE staining,in gestational age 16 d group,original bronchus was dendritic distributed,with thick interstitial,rare capillary and no alveolar structure existed; in gestational age 19 d group,primary alveolar was seen,interstitial became thinner,and more capillaries were found; in gestational age 21 d group,more alveolar septa were identified and pulmonary acinus cavity was extremely expanded.(2) Two hundred and two differentially expressed miRNA were found.Among them,many miRNA were firstly reported in rat fetal lung development,suchas miRNA-3560 (8.4211415,4.8889050),miRNA-126 * (7.5239524,1.5118160),miRNA-186* (0.980 325 0,0.688 447 5),miRNA-466c* (0.977 220 0,0.877 227 0),miRNA-195 (13.549 629 0,0.985 488 8),miRNA-34a (12.426 133 0,0.604 066 2) and miRNA-466b-1 *(0.993 153 1,1.732 802 3).(3)The expression of miRNA-466c * and miRNA 186 * decreased as the gestational age increased from 16 d to 21 d,while expression of miRNA-195,miRNA-3560,miRNA-466b-1 *,miRNA-126 * and miRNA-let-7b increased; miRNA-34a expression increased during 16 d to 19 d.miRNA 17-92 family expression decreased,while expression of most let-7 family members (except let-7i and let-7e) increased from 16 d to 21 d of gestational age.Conclusions These miRNA might play an important role in the physiological mechanisms of fetal lungs development.
