Popis: | Aim: To understand miRNA changes across gestation in healthy human placentae. This is essential before miRNAs can be used as biomarkers or prognostic indicators during pregnancy. Materials & methods: Using next-generation sequencing, we characterize the normative human placenta miRNome in first (n =113) and third trimester (n =47). Results &conclusion: There are 801 miRNAs expressed in both first and third trimester, including 182 with similar expression across gestation (p ≥0.05, foldchange ≤2) and 180 significantly different (false discovery rate 2). Of placenta-specific miRNA clusters, chromosome 14 miRNA cluster decreases across gestation and chromosome 19miRNA cluster is overall highly expressed. Chromosome 13 clusters are upregulated in first trimester. This work provides a rich atlas of healthy pregnancies to direct functional studies investigating the epigenetic differences in first and third trimester placentae. |
