Global approaches to the role of miRNAs in drug-induced changes in gene expression

Neurons modulate gene expression with subcellular precision through excitation-coupled local protein synthesis, a process that is regulated in part through the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small noncoding RNAs. The biosynthesis of miRNAs is reviewed, with special emphasis on miRNA f...
