Sex-Dependent Changes in miRNA Expression in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis Following Stress

Sex-Dependent Changes in miRNA Expression in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis Following Stress

Anxiety disorders disproportionately affect women compared to men, which may arise from sex differences in stress responses. MiRNAs are small non-coding RNAs known to regulate gene expression through actions on mRNAs. MiRNAs are regulated, in part, by factors such as stress and gonadal sex, and they...
