Experimental procedures to identify and validate specific mRNA targets of miRNAs [PDF]
Functionally matured microRNAs (miRNAs) are small single-stranded non-coding RNA molecules which are emerging as important post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression and consequently are central players in many physiological and pathological ...

Aging and serum exomiR content in women-effects of estrogenic hormone replacement therapy [PDF]
Exosomes participate in intercellular messaging by transporting bioactive lipid-, protein-and RNA-molecules and -complexes. The contents of the exosomes reflect the physiological status of an individual making exosomes promising targets for biomarker ...

Expression of nonmuscle myosin IIC is regulated by non-canonical binding activity of miRNAs
Summary: The expression of mechanoresponsive nonmuscle myosin II (NMII)C is found to be inducible during tumor progression, but its mechanism is yet to be explored.

Blood miRNAs Are Linked to Frequent Asthma Exacerbations in Childhood Asthma and Adult COPD
MicroRNAs have been independently associated with asthma and COPD; however, it is unclear if microRNA associations will overlap when evaluating retrospective acute exacerbations.

Deregulated microRNA and mRNA expression profiles in the peripheral blood of patients with Marfan syndrome [PDF]
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs regulating gene expression post-transcriptionally. While acquired changes of miRNA and mRNA profiles in cancer have been extensively studied, little is known about expression changes of circulating miRNAs and
