High throughput miRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis identify the mesenchymal cell proliferation and apoptosis related miRNAs during fetal mice palate development.

For the first time, we identified that clear dynamic miRNA expression during palate development. Furthermore, we demonstrated that mesenchymal cell proliferation and apoptosis related miRNAs, genes and the MAPK signaling pathway are important during fetal mice palate development.
