Knockdown of miR-23, miR-27, and miR-24 Alters Fetal Liver Development and Blocks Fibrosis in Mice
29 Nov 2016
Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate cell fate selection and cellular differentiation. miRNAs of the miR23b polycistron (miR-23b, miR-27b, and miR-24) target components of the TGF-β signaling pathway and affect murine bile ductular and hepatocyte cell fate selection in vitro. Here we show that miR-23b polycistron miRNAs directly target murine Smad4, which is required for TGF-β signaling. Injection of antagomirs against...
