To compare the whole genomic microRNA (miRNA) between the selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR) twin and the normally growing (control) co-twin in monochorionic (MC) twin pregnancies. MC twin pregnancies with or without sFGR were recruited, and their placental miRNAs were profiled by microarray. The ratio of the placental miRNA of the sFGR twin to that of the normally larger co-twin were calculated and compared to that of the control twin pairs. The miRNA microarray intensity amongst normal and sFGR large and small twins are shown. The expression data presented here will facilitate other researchers who are working on placental regulation and mechanism in pregnancy complicated by fetal growth restriction.The dataset supports the research article entitle “Whole genome miRNA profiling revealed miR-199a as potential placental pathogenesis of selective fetal growth restriction in monochorionic twin pregnancies” [1].
