micro RNA deregulation in keloids: an opportunity for clinical intervention?
21 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
Keloids are defined as benign dermal scars invading adjacent healthy tissue, characterized by aberrant fibroblast dynamics and overproduction of extracellular matrix. However, the aetiology and molecular mechanism of keloid production remain poorly understood. Recent discoveries have shed new light on the involvement of a class of non-coding RNAs known as microRNAs (miRNA), in keloid formation. A number of miRNAs...
