Abstract:Background: miRNAs participate in the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and are involved in multiple pathogenesis of DR. High expression of NF-κB signaling pathway boosts the progression of retinopathy in diabetes rats. We found a site where miR-874 bound to the NF-κB p65 by the prediction on a bioinformatics website. Therefore, it was speculated that miR-874 might improve retinopathy in diabetic rats by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway.Methods: Ten healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
