Transcriptome analysis reveals the spinal expression profiles of non-coding RNAs involved in anorectal malformations in rat fetuses

This study uses RNA sequencing to identify non-coding RNAs in the lumbosacral spinal cord of rat fetuses with anorectal malformations, aiming to understand the molecular mechanisms behind post-operative fecal dysfunction. The research addresses a critical gap in understanding spinal cord dysplasia's role in persistent bowel control problems after ARM repair.
