TL;DR: It is shown that micro-RNA378 (miR-378) is spatiotemporally expressed in porcine granulosa cells, the cells that generate estradiol in the ovary during follicular development, in an inverse manner compared with the expression of aromatase.

TL;DR: It is shown that expression of the circular RNA circ-Amotl1 accelerated healing process in a mouse excisional wound model and discovered that Stat3, similar to Dnmt3a and fibronectin, was a target of miR-17-5p, which led to increased cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, survival, and wound repair.

TL;DR: This study showed that EGF-LL had beneficial effects on the intestinal growth of newly weaned mice, and the combination of growth factor delivery and a probiotic approach may offer possibilities for formulating dietary supplements for children during their weaning transition stage.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the oocyte growth-maturation system facilitates the final stage of oocytes growth and thus resulted in better oocyte nuclear, cytoplasmic maturation, and developmental competency compared with the conventional direct oocyte maturation system.

TL;DR: This study provides the first functional evidence that GDNF affects oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryo developmental competence in a follicular stage-dependent manner and may provide insights for improving the formulation of IVM culture systems, especially for oocytes from small follicles.
