MiR-1227-3p participates in the development of fetal growth restriction via regulating trophoblast cell proliferation and apoptosis.

ABSTRACT: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a common obstetric disease, which is harmful to the pregnant women and fetuses. It has many influencing factors, but the specific etiology is not clear. MiRNA plays an important role in the fetal growth and development. In this article, we use TaqMan Low-Density Array to screen and analyze the differently expressed miRNAs in FGR-affected placenta (n = 40) and the normal placenta (n = 40). A total of 139 abnormally expressed miRNAs in the FGR-affected placenta were identified, and miR-1227-3p was the most highly downregulated miRNA. Importantly, miR-1227-3p may promote the proliferation in HTR-8/SVneo cells, while inhibited the apoptosis of HTR-8/SVneo cells. DAVID was used to analyze the pathway enrichment of target genes of miR-1227-3p to predict its mech
