Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In this review, we summarize the recent advances regarding microRNA (miRNA) functions in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) differentiation and phenotypic modulation. RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple miRNAs are found to be responsible for VSMC differentiation and proliferation under physiological or pathological condition. A single miRNA downregulates multiple targets, whereas a...
