December 2020 in “G3 Genes Genomes Genetics” This study confirmed that chi-miR-130b-3p regulates the proliferation of epithelial cells and dermal fibroblasts by targeting the WNT10A gene, which may help maintain hair follicle structure.
January 2024 in “Animals” In this study, researchers found that circERCC6, a circular RNA identified in cashmere goat hair follicles, helps activate secondary hair follicle stem cells, with its role dependent on specific m6A modifications that interact with miR-412-3p to regulate BNC2 expression.

August 2022 in “Animals” This study identified key genes and miRNAs involved in feather morphogenesis in Zhedong White geese, highlighting a negative correlation between FOXO3 and miR-144-y.
January 2024 in “Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakultesi Dergisi” In this study, researchers found that oar-miR-377 regulates secondary hair follicle development in sheep by downregulating the SLC24A2 gene, and a specific SNP in oar-miR-377 is significantly associated with wool fiber diameter variation in Chinese Merino sheep.
