N6-methyladenosine m6A-circHECA secondary hair follicle miRNA methylation host gene promoter HECA

TLDR m6A-circHECA may affect cashmere goat hair growth and is possibly controlled by gene promoter methylation.

The study investigates the role of m6A-circHECA in the secondary hair follicle (SHF) physiology of cashmere goats, suggesting that it may influence this process through miRNA-mediated pathways and interactions with target proteins. Additionally, the expression of m6A-circHECA is potentially inhibited by the methylation of its host gene promoter, HECA, in the SHFs of cashmere goats.
