Expression of the RORα gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goat hair follicles

Y. H. Zhao, Liu, Z. H., Wang, L., Xiao, H. M., Du, C. G., Zhang, Y. J., Su, R., and Li, J. Q., Expression of the RORα gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goat hair follicles, vol. 14, pp. 380-388, 2015.

The expression of retinoid-acid-related orphan receptor α (RORα) was evaluated at the mRNA level using real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and its expression localization was determined by in situ hybridization of adult Inner Mongolian cashmere goats at different times of the year. In situ hybridization demonstrated that RORαwas expressed in secondary hair follicles of the hair shaft, inner root sheath, outer root sheath, medulla, and other parts that are target organs of the RORαreceptor gene.
