In this study, we determined the miRNA expression profile of bovine alveolar macrophages, using next-generation sequencing strategy. On an Illumina HiSeq 2000 machine, we sequenced 8 miRNA libraries, prepared from small RNA fractions of alveolar macrophages isolated from 8 different healthy animals ...
Background: MycobacteriumM-BM- bovis, the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, is an intracellular pathogen that can persist inside host macrophages during infection via a diverse range of mechanisms that subvert the host immune response. In the current study, we have analysed and compared the tr...
