Expression profile of long non-coding RNA in inner Mongolian cashmere goat with putative roles in hair follicles development.

ABSTRACT: The hair follicle is a complex skin accessory organ, which determines hair growth. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to play an important role in hair follicle development, but their specific mechanism is still unclear. In this study, high-throughput sequencing was used to obtain the expression profiles of lncRNA in the hair follicles of Inner Mongolian cashmere goats at different embryonic stages (45, 55, 65, and 75 days), and a total of 6,630 lncRNA were identified. According to the rules of hair follicle development, we combined miRNA and mRNA databases (published) and predicted lncRNA-miRNA, miRNA-mRNA, and lncRNA-mRNA interaction pairs in the 45 vs. 75 comparison group. We obtained 516 lncRNA-mRNA, 1,011 lncRNA-miRNA, and 7,411 miRNA-mRNA relationship pairs. Finally, tar
