Microarray analysis of microRNA expression in peripheral blood cells of systemic lupus erythematosus patients
27 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding RNA molecules of 21-24 nt that regulate the expression of target genes in a post-transcriptional manner. Evidence indicates that miRNAs play essential roles in embryogenesis, cell differentiation and pathogenesis of human diseases. This study describes a comparison between the miRNA profile of the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and the controls to develop further...
