MicroRNA-195-5p Downregulation Inhibits Endothelial Mesenchymal Transition and Myocardial Fibrosis in Diabetic Cardiomyopathy by Targeting Smad7 and Inhibiting Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1-Smads-Snail Pathway

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a complication of diabetes mellitus, which is associated with fibrosis and microRNAs (miRs). This study estimated the mechanism of miR-195-5p in endothelial mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and myocardial fibrosis in DCM. After the establishment of DCM rat models, miR-...
