microRNA-17 family promotes polycystic kidney disease progression through modulation of mitochondrial metabolism

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a life-threatening genetic disease that leads to renal failure. Here Hajarniset al. show that miR-17 modulates cyst progression in ADPKD through metabolic reprogramming of mitochondria and its inhibition slows cyst development and improves rena...
