“…We demonstrated that the activated microglial cells caused by miR-132-3p leads to increased cell apoptotic rate and diminished viability of neuroblastoma cells. However, miR-132-3p was also reported to alleviate neuron apoptosis and impairments of learning and memory abilities in Alzheimer's disease (Qu, Xiong, Hujie et al, 2021). Alzheimer's disease and PD, both belonging to neuro-degenerative disease, the former is a neurodegenerative brain pathology formed due to piling up of amyloid proteins, development of plaques and disappearance of neurons (Tufail, Ma, Zhang et al, 2021).while the latter is caused by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (Xu, Zhang, Kang et al, 2021).…”
