Title
MiR-26a suppresses EMT by disrupting the Lin28B/let-7d axis: potential cross-talks among miRNAs in IPF
Year
2016
Function
Upregulation of Lin28B contributes to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Lin28B causes epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by inhibition of let-7d. Lin28B is one of the targets of microRNA-26a. MiR-26a enhances the expression of let-7d via targeting regulation of Lin28B. A regulatory network among miRNAs involved in the progression of IPF.
