High-throughput sequencing reveals differential expression of miRNAs in intestine from sea cucumber during aestivation.

The regulatory role of miRNA in gene expression is an emerging hot new topic in the control of hypometabolism. Sea cucumber aestivation is a complicated physiological process that includes obvious hypometabolism as evidenced by a decrease in the rates of oxygen consumption and ammonia nitrogen excre...
