Journal ArticleDOI

Suppression of microRNA-29 expression by TGF-β1 promotes collagen expression and renal fibrosis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that TGF-β1 inhibits expression of the miR-29 family, thereby promoting expression of ECM components, and Pharmacologic modulation of these miRNAs may have therapeutic potential for progressive renal fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic inhibition of the miR-34 family attenuates pathological cardiac remodeling and improves heart function

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that silencing of the entire miR-34 family can protect the heart against pathological cardiac remodeling and improve function and the utility of seed-targeting 8-mer LNA-antimiRs in the development of new therapeutic approaches for pharmacologic inhibition of disease-implicated miRNA seed families is underscored.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-200a Prevents Renal Fibrogenesis Through Repression of TGF-β2 Expression

TL;DR: These miRNAs appear to be intricately involved in fibrogenesis, both as downstream mediators of TGF-β signaling and as components of feedback regulation, and as such represent important new targets for the prevention of progressive kidney disease in the context of diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TGF-β Regulates miR-206 and miR-29 to Control Myogenic Differentiation through Regulation of HDAC4

TL;DR: A novel mechanism of interaction between TGF-β and miR-206 and -29 in the regulation of myogenic differentiation through HDAC4 is identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-21 promotes renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy by targeting PTEN and SMAD7

TL;DR: Data indicating that miR-21 up-regulation positively correlates with the severity of fibrosis and rate of decline in renal function in human DN is demonstrated, and concomitant analyses of various models of fibrotic renal disease and experimental DN, confirm tubular mi R-21Up-regulation.
