Furthermore, miRNA-mRNA and miRNA-lncRNA interaction were identified through the bioinformatics algorithm miRanda, then the ceRNA networks, miR-221-5p-lnc_000679-WNT3, miR-34a-lnc_000181-GATA3 and miR-214-3p-lnc_000344-SMAD3, were constructed under defined rules, to illustrate their roles in cashmere goat HF biology. Here, SMAD3 is linked to hydrops fetalis.
