MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key regulatory roles in diverse biological processes and are frequently dysregulated in human diseases. Thus, miRNAs have emerged as a class of promising targets for therapeutic intervention. Here, we describe the current strategies for therapeutic modulation of miRNAs and provide an update on the development of miRNA-based therapeutics for the treatment of cancer, cardiovascular disease and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
微小RNA(miRNA)在多种生物过程中发挥关键调节作用,且在人类疾病中常常失调。因此,miRNA已成为一类有前景的治疗干预靶点。在此,我们描述了目前对miRNA进行治疗性调控的策略,并提供了基于miRNA的治疗方法在癌症、心血管疾病和丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染治疗方面的进展更新。
