A comprehensive overview on the crosstalk between microRNAs and viral pathogenesis and infection

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 349-425, March 2025.
Abstract Infections caused by viruses as the smallest infectious agents, pose a major threat to global public health. Viral infections utilize different host mechanisms to facilitate their own propagation and pathogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), as small noncoding RNA molecules, play important regulatory roles in different diseases, including viral ...

Comprehensive Enteroviral Serology Links Infection and Anti‐Melanoma Differentiation‐Associated Protein 5 Dermatomyositis

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2025.
Objective Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are a group of heterogeneous, systemic autoimmune diseases characterized by specific clinical features and, frequently, skeletal muscle inflammation. Specific subtypes of IIMs can be characterized by myositis‐specific autoantibodies and are associated with distinct clinical phenotypes.
