Abstract��Abstract: miRNAs are a family of non-coding RNA molecules, with a length of about 22 nucleotides (nt), which participate in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. As key regulators of gene expression, they are involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, growth and development of organisms and so on. The intestine is not only the main site for digestion and absorption, but also an important immune organ. Previous studies showed that miRNAs had high abundance in intestine, and played an important role in regulation of intestinal development and function. Combined with the findings of our research group, recent advances in the biosynthesis of miRNAs and their effects on intestinal function and homeostasis are reviewed, with the purpose of providing the theoretical guidance on molecular nutrition and presenting a framework of the regulation effect of miRNAs on animal intestinal health.
