Title
Inhibition of Let-7 microRNA attenuates myocardial remodeling and improves cardiac function postinfarction in mice
Year
2014
Function
The inhibition of let-7c miRNA downregulated the levels of mature let-7c miRNA and its other closely related members of let-7 family in the heart and resulted in increased expression of pluripotency-associated genes OCT4 and SOX3 in cardiac fibroblasts in vitro and in adult mouse heart in vivo.
