miRNA:

hsa-miR-21

Disease:

cardiac hypertrophy

Relationship type:

Causal

Detection method for miRNA expression:

Northern blot, qRT-PCR etc

Expression pattern of miRNA:

up-regulated

Validated targets of miRNA from the reference:

unknown

Validated targets of miRNA from TarBase:

PTEN,TPM1 : More...

Predicted targets: MIRANDA, TARGETSCAN, PICTAR-VERT

 

Description:

2'OMe-miR-21 decreased miR-21 levels and inhibited myocyte hypertrophy stimulated by either Ang II or PE as shown by the decreased cell size and leucine incorporation. In contrast, control oligos (2'OMe-EGFP) had no effect on miR-21 expression and cell hypertrophy.
