MicroRNA-125b and chemokine CCL4 expression are associated with calcific aortic valve disease
4 Jul 2015
Abstract excerpt
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a progressive pathological condition with no effective pharmacological therapy. To identify novel molecular pathways as potential targets for pharmacotherapy, we studied microRNA (miRNA) profiles of heavily stenotic aortic valves (AS). One of the most upregulated miRNAs in AS valves compared to control valves was miR-125b (1.4-fold; P < 0.05). To identify CAVD-related...
