Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are new prominent gene expression regulators that have critical roles in neural development by regulating synaptic functions, and miRNA biogenesis may play an important role in psychiatric disorders. Despite emerging evidences demonstrating that single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the miRNA processing genes were associated with cancer and cardiovascular disorders, evidences about association...
