Anaplasma phagocytophilum modifies tick cell microRNA expression and upregulates isc-mir-79 to facilitate infection by targeting the Roundabout protein 2 pathway
24 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
The microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small noncoding RNAs that have important regulatory roles in multicellular organisms including innate and adaptive immune pathways to control bacterial, parasite and viral infections, and pathogens could modify host miRNA profile to facilitate infection and multiplication. Therefore, understanding the function of host miRNAs in response to pathogen infection is relevant to...
