Expression of microRNA-150 targeting vascular endothelial growth factor-A is downregulated under hypoxia during liver regeneration

Abstract excerpt

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a factor that stimulates the proliferation of sinusoidal endothelial cells and hepatocytes during liver regeneration (LR). The present study aimed to screen and validate a microRNA (miRNA) that targets VEGF-A with relative specificity and to elucidate the potential association between hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF‑1α) and miRNA expression in the early phase of LR....
