miR-21 induces endothelial progenitor cells proliferation and angiogenesis via targeting FASLG and is a potential prognostic marker in deep venous thrombosis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities is a common thrombotic disease, occurring either in isolation or as a complication of other diseases or procedures. MiR-21 is one of important microRNAs which play critical role in various cellular function. This study aim to determine the effect of miR-21 on endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and its role in predicting prognosis of DVT. METHODS: EPCs...
