Of mice and men: correlations between microRNA-17∼92 cluster expression and promoter methylation in severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia
30 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
We previously demonstrated that decreased miR-17∼92 cluster expression was 1) present in lungs from human infants who died with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD); 2) inversely correlated with DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) expression and promoter methylation; and 3) correlated with a subsequent diagnosis of BPD at 36 wk gestational age. We tested the hypothesis that plasma miR-17 levels would be lowest in infants...
