MicroRNAs in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: involvement in pathogenesis and potential use in diagnosis and therapeutics
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of phylogenetically conserved, non-coding short RNAs, 19–22 nt in length which suppress protein expression through base-pairing with the 3′-untranslated region of target mRNAs. miRNAs have been found to participate in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis....
