MicroRNAs and respiratory diseases.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of endogenous, small, noncoding RNA molecules that modulate physiological and pathological processes by post-transcriptional inhibition of gene expression. They were first recognised as regulators of development in worms and fruitflies. In recent years extensive research has explored their pivotal role in the pathogenesis of human diseases. Over 1,000 human miRNA...
متن کاملmicroRNAs and genetic diseases
microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small RNAs (19-25 nucleotides in length) processed from double-stranded hairpin precursors. They negatively regulate gene expression in animals, by binding, with imperfect base pairing, to target sites in messenger RNAs (usually in 3' untranslated regions) thereby either reducing translational efficiency or determining transcript degradation. Considering that e...
متن کاملMicroRNAs and Allergic Diseases
microRNAs are a class of small, non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of a diverse array of genes and pathways, with important roles in disease pathogenesis. Many of these microRNAs are currently under investigation as biomarkers or therapeutic options in a range of diseases. Here, we discuss the role of microRNAs in allergic diseases, allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermat...
متن کاملMicroRNAs and Cardiovascular Diseases
Coronary artery diseases (CAD) and heart failure have high mortality rate in the world, although much progress has been made in this field in last two decades. There is still a clinical need for a novel diagnostic approach and a therapeutic strategy to decrease the incidence of CAD. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved noncoding small RNA molecules that regulate a large fraction of the genom...
