miRNAs Affect the Expression of Innate and Adaptive Immunity Proteins in Celiac Disease
29 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: microRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNAs that regulate gene expression in various processes, including immune response. Altered immune response is a pivotal event in the pathogenesis of celiac disease (CD), and miRNAs could have a role in modulating both innate and adaptive response to gluten in celiac patients. METHODS: We compared miRNA profiles in duodenal biopsies of controls and CD patients by miRNA...
