Abstract excerpt
Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) glycoproteins in blood can selectively recognise lectins on the surface of bacteria, and play an important role in natural immunity. Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are key molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in vivo, and their pathways are specific and effective. Previous studies indicate that small RNAs such as miRNAs perform regulatory roles in immunology....
