Title
The microRNA-15 family inhibits the TGFB-pathway in the heart
Year
2014
Function
"miRNA-15 family,inhibits the TGF-beta-pathway by targeting of TGF-betaR1 and several other genes within this pathway directly or indirectly, including p38, smad3, smad7, and endoglin, miR-17 family as a novel regulator of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis acting by inhibition of the TGF-pathway."
