摘要: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ~22 nt RNAs that coordinate vast regulatory networks in animals and thereby influence myriad processes. This Review examines evidence miRNAs have continuous roles adults ways separable from developmental control. Adult-specific activities for been described various stem cell populations, the context of neural function cardiovascular biology, metabolism ageing, during cancer. In addition to reviewing recent results, we also discuss methods studying miRNA specifically evaluate their relative strengths weaknesses. A fuller understanding functions has bearing on efforts opportunities manipulate therapeutic purposes.
