MiRNAs regulate oxidative stress related genes via binding to the 3′ UTR and TATA-box regions: a new hypothesis for cataract pathogenesis
14 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Age-related cataracts are related to oxidative stress. However, the genome-wide screening of cataract related oxidative stress related genes are not thoroughly investigated. Our study aims to identify cataract regulated miRNA target genes that are related to oxidative stress and to propose a new possible mechanism for cataract formation. METHODS: Microarrays were used to determine the mRNA expression...
