The Expression and Potential Role of MicroRNAs in Oral Lichen Planus
Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic T‐cell‐mediated immune disease of unknown aetiology. MicroRNA (miRNAs) are short non‐coding RNAs capable of regulating mRNA and may have roles in T‐cell‐related diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the profile of miRNAs in OLP patients and its interaction with potential target ...
