Microcystin-leucine arginine (MC-LR) could disrupt prostate development and cause prostate hyperplasia. But whether and how maternal and before-weaning MC-LR exposure causes prostate hyperplasia in male offspring by changing expression profile of P-element-induced wimpy (PIWI)-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) have not yet been reported.
