Competing endogenous RNA expression profiling in decidua after LPS treatment. Competing endogenous RNA expression profiling in decidua after LPS treatment

To investigate the competing endogenous RNA expression changes in decidua under the inflammatory reaction, LPS (100 μg/kg body weight) was intraperitoneally injected into the mice at 15 days of pregnancy. Premature births has been found after approximately 48 h of treatment. When bleeding found in vagina, the decidua were selected in asepsis condition, and total RNA was isolated to analyze the expression of competing endogenous RNA compared with cesarean sections. Overall design: The decidua derived from LPS-treated mice were tested the competing endogenous RNA expression, the decidua derived from cesarean sections as a control.
