Abstract: To discuss whether the effects of melatonin might result from nuclear receptors, mRNA was extracted from the skin of Inner Mongolia cashmere goat, and retinoid-related orphan receptor α( RORα), retinoid-related orphan receptor β(RORβ) and retinoid-related orphan receptor γ(RORγ) were amplified by RT-PCR, the expression of RORs in the skin of Inner Mongolia cashmere goat from different stages of hair follicle development was explored. The results revealed that the expression of RORα,RORβ and RORγ mRNA was detected in Jan(catagen), May(early anagen) and Sep(anagen),while non-expression in Mar(telogen),and RORα,RORβ and RORγ had the same expression pattern.It suggestted that RORs might have relationship with the cycled growth of cashmere.
