The Function of MicroRNAs in Autoimmune Diseases
Journal Title: Science Insights - Year 2022, Vol 40, Issue 5
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of non-coding single-stranded RNAs with a length of around 18-25 nucleotides that play a critical role in the control of gene expression, cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, as well as biological growth and development and illness. Autoimmune diseases are a group of disorders characterized by tissue and organ damage and resulting dysfunction as a result of autoimmune responses. Numerous studies have discovered that aberrant expression of certain miRNAs may serve as biomarkers for early detection of these diseases or as therapeutic targets. The biological properties of miRNAs and their significance in autoimmune illnesses are discussed in this review.
