ssc-mir-30a: ssc-mir-30a is a small RNA that is generated from the loop or the region between the loop and stem of its precursor molecule [PMC4008308]. This microRNA, along with others, has been observed to potentially originate from miRNA-offset RNAs (moRNAs), indicating a novel biogenesis pathway [PMC4001129]. In a study comparing castrated and intact male pigs, ssc-mir-30a was one of eight miRNAs that were validated and its expression levels were found to be lower in intact male pigs [PMC3901342]. However, in castrated male pigs, ssc-mir-30a levels were significantly increased in backfat tissue when compared with their intact counterparts [PMC3901342]. The study also highlighted ssc-mir-30a's role in targeting the AR gene, which could suggest its involvement in androgen receptor-related pathways or functions [PMC3901342].
