Abstract:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level and play a crucial role in numerous disease processes, including infections. Although intracellular microbial pathogens are known to modulate host cell gene expression to establish permissive conditions for infection, the specific role of host-encoded miRNAs underlying such subversion remains poorly understood. In this study, we employed the protozoan parasite Leishmania amazonensis as a model system to… Show more
