Abstract: The expression levels of microRNA-483 and microRNA-486 in heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, placenta, cotyledons, endometrium from normal, cloned, and transgenic bovine were measured by real time quantitative PCR. The results showed that microRNA-483 and microRNA-486 were expressed in all tissues of normal, cloned and fat-1-transgenic bovine;significantly higher in the heart than other tissues. However, the expression levels of microRNA-483 and microRNA-486 in transgenic bovine were lower than normal one. Further, the expressions of microRNA-483 and microRNA-486 varied in different tissues and high in the heart, indicating that the expressions of microRNA-483 and microRNA-486 may be correlated with pathophysiological process of myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial infarction.
