MicroRNA in autoimmunity and autoimmune diseases.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small conserved non-coding RNA molecules that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression by targeting the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of specific messenger RNAs (mRNAs) for degradation or translational repression. miRNA-mediated gene regulation is critical for normal cellular functions such as the cell cycle, differentiation, and apoptosis, and as much as one-third ...
متن کاملRadiation-induced inflammation and autoimmune diseases
Currently, ionizing radiation (IR) plays a key role in the agricultural and medical industry, while accidental exposure resulting from leakage of radioactive sources or radiological terrorism is a serious concern. Exposure to IR has various detrimental effects on normal tissues. Although an increased risk of carcinogenesis is the best-known long-term consequence of IR, evidence has shown that o...
متن کاملAutoimmune Diseases in the Bioinformatics Paradigm
Autoimmune diseases (AIDs) consist of a group of physiological disorders with highly diversified pathogenesis and clinical manifestations [1], which affect more than 5% of the population worldwide [2]. So far, the etiology of the AIDs is still poorly understood, whereas it is generally believed that autoimmune disorder results from a complex interaction of genetic and epigenetic variations, as ...
متن کاملThe MicroRNA-21 in Autoimmune Diseases
MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is an oncomiR and significantly upregulated in a wide range of cancers. It is strongly involved in apoptosis and oncogenesis, since most of its reported targets are tumor suppressors. Recently, miR-21 was found to be correlated with the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and may play an essential role in regulating autoimmune responses. In particular, miR-21 promotes Th17 ...
