Injection of MIR21 Increases Maturation Rate. Collected COCs underwent IVM for 21 h, when they were then denuded and injected with either scrambled miRNA negative control (NC), water loading control (water), or synthetic mature MIR21. The oocytes were then placed back into IVM media until a total of 42 h. Injection of MIR21 increased maturation rate compared to oocytes injected with either control. Superscripts denote significant difference (P < 0.05)
