Hormonal Regulation of MicroRNA Expression in Steroid Producing Cells of the Ovary, Testis and Adrenal Gland
Figure 2
MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles in adrenals from rats treated with ACTH, 17α-E2, DEX or saline (control).
[A]. The heat map represents the expression levels of 45 miRNAs in two conditions (control and ACTH). [B, C]. The heat map represents the expression levels of 163 miRNAs in two conditions (control and 17α-E2). 74 miRNAs were up-regulated [B] and 89 miRNAs were down-regulated with 17α-E2 [C]. [D]. The heat map represents the expression levels of 33 miRNAs in two conditions (control and DEX). Red, up-regulated genes; blue, down-regulated genes.
