To explore the roles of miR-130b-3p and miR-301b-3p which may regulate Rb1-inducible coiled-coil 1 (Rb1cc1) expression during myogenic differentiation of chicken primary myoblasts. After 4 days of myogenic differentiation, myotubes appeared and after 6 days the cells fused to each other and expression of MyHC could be detected by immunofluorescence staining. TargetScan and RNAhybrid 2.2 showed miR-130b-3p and miR-301b-3p were well complementary with the target site of Rb1cc1 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR). Using the dual-luciferase assay, we found miR-130b-3p and miR-301b-3p could inhibit Rb1cc1 expression by binding to its 3'-UTR. Real-time PCR showed Rb1cc1 mRNA expression level was almost reciprocal to that of miR-130b-3p or miR-301b-3p during myogenic differentiation. Furthermore, over-expression of miR-130b-3p or miR-301b-3p down-regulated the expression levels of Rb1cc1, myoblast determination protein, myogenin and myosin heavy chain. miR-130b-3p or miR-301b-3p negatively regulate Rb1cc1 expression to affect myogenic differentiation.
