Identification and Functional Analysis of miRNAs in Extracellular Vesicles of Semen Plasma from High- and Low-Fertility Boars by Weidong Chen, Yanshe Xie, Zhiqian Xu, Yijun Shang, Wenzheng Yang, Pengyao Wang, Zhenfang Wu, Gengyuan Cai, Linjun Hong

“…In this study, we collected 40 mL of ejaculates per boar used for extracellular vesicle (EV) characterization in 20 boars and identified 53 differentially expressed miRNAs by small RNA sequencing, of which 44 miRNAs were up-regulated in the high-fertility seminal EVs compared with low-fertility seminal EVs, and nine miRNAs were down-regulated. miR-26a was most significantly down-regulated in the high-fertility group compared to the low-fertility group, and it was hypothesized that this miRNA could be used as a biomolecular marker of semen reproductive performance. …”
