microRNA profiling in the zoonotic parasite Echinococcus canadensis using a high-throughput approach
Abstract Background microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression at post-transcriptional level and play essential roles in fundamental biological processes such as development and metabolism. The particular developmental and metabolic characteristics of...
