MRNA and miRNA expression profile reveals the role of miR-31 overexpression in neural stem cell.

ABSTRACT: A detailed understanding of the character and differentiation mechanism of neural stem cells (NSCs) will help us to effectively utilize their transplantation to treat spinal cord injury. In previous studies, we found that compared with motor neurons (MNs), miR-31 was significantly high-expressed in NSCs and might play an important role in the proliferation of NSCs and the differentiation into MNs. To better understand the role of miR-31, we characterized the mRNA and miRNAs expression profiles in the early stage of spinal cord-derived NSCs after miR-31 overexpression. There were 35 mRNAs and 190 miRNAs differentially expressed between the miR-31 overexpression group and the control group. Compared with the control group, both the up-regulated mRNAs and miRNAs were associated with the stemn
