Research showing that microRNAs (miRNAs) are versatile regulators of gene expression
has instigated tremendous interest in cardiovascular research. The overwhelming majority of …

Altered gene expression is a characteristic feature of many disease states such as
tumorigenesis, and in most cancers, it facilitates cancer cell survival and adaptation …

Cardiac fibrosis describes the inappropriate proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs), leading
to accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in the cardiac muscle, which is found …

The RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are critical trans factors that associate with specific cis
elements present in mRNAs whose stability and translation are subject to regulation. The …

The control of eukaryotic gene expression occurs at multiple levels, from transcription to
messenger RNA processing, transport, localization, turnover, and translation. RNA-binding …

In recent years, an increasing number of circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been discovered in
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the functions of most circRNAs require further …

Vascular diseases account for a significant number of deaths worldwide, with cardiovascular
diseases remaining the leading cause of mortality. This ongoing, ever-increasing burden …

Pathological fibrosis contributes to progression of various diseases, for which the
