Title
MicroRNA-326 Regulates Profibrotic Functions of Transforming Growth Factor-B in Pulmonary Fibrosis
Year
2014
Function
"Hsa-miR-326 regulates TGF-B1 expression and that hsa-miR-326 levels are inversely correlated to TGF-B1 protein levels in multiple human cell lines.MiR-326 was found to down-regulate profibrotic genes, such as Ets1, Smad3, and matrix metalloproteinase 9, whereas it up-regulates antifibrotic genes, such as Smad7."
