Title
MicroRNA-18 and microRNA-19 regulate CTGF and TSP-1 expression in age-related heart failure
Year
2011
Function
"Our data support a role for cardiomyocyte-derived miR-19 during cardiac aging, in the fine-tuning of cardiac extracellular matrix protein levels. During aging, decreased miR-19 and increased CTGF and TSP-3 levels identify the failure-prone heart."
