MicroRNAs and Their Role in Progressive Kidney Diseases
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 07/09/09
Kato M et al. - MicroRNAs (miRs) are a family of short non-coding RNAs. These endogenously produced factors have been shown to play important roles in gene regulation. The discovery of miRs has greatly expanded our knowledge of gene regulation at the posttranscriptional level. The major goal of this review is to highlight key functions of these miRs and their relationships to human diseases, with special emphasis on diabetic kidney disease.
