MicroRNA Expression Profile and the Role of miR-204 in Corneal Wound Healing
5 Jun 2015
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous short chain (∼ 22-nucleotide) noncoding RNAs that inhibit protein translation through binding to target mRNAs. Recent studies have implied that miRNAs play a regulatory role in corneal development. Here we profile their involvement in corneal epithelial renewal, develop an miRNA-target network that affects wound healing outcome, and investigate the function of miR-204 in...
