Comparison of MicroRNA Profiles in Extracellular Vesicles from Small and Large Goat Follicular Fluid
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which exist in the follicular fluid of ruminant ovaries, are considered as cargo carriers for the transfer of biomolecules to recipient cells. However, the functions and changes in EVs in antral follicles remain ambiguous. In the present study, we isolated and character...
