摘要
微小RNA(miRNA)是一类在进化上高度保守的非编码小分子单链RNA(约18~24个碱基),在转录后水平负性调控基因表达。易损斑块是指动脉粥样硬化过程中易于形成血栓或可能迅速进展为罪犯病变的斑块。研究表明,miRNA几乎参与了动脉粥样硬化形成的所有步骤,包括内皮细胞及血管平滑肌细胞损伤和功能障碍、单核细胞浸润及血小板功能障碍,并发挥有益或有害作用。miRNA也将成为深入研究中医药双向调节易损斑块作用机制新的领域。
MicroRNA(miRNA) is a kind of evolutionarily highly conserved noncoding small molecule single stranded RNA(about 18-24 nucleotides), which negatively regulates gene expression at posttranscriptional level. Vulnerable plaques refer to plaques that are easy to form thrombus or may rapidly develop into criminal lesions in the process of atherosclerosis. Research shows that miRNA is involved in almost all steps of atherosclerosis, including endothelial cell and vascular smooth muscle cell injury and dysfunction, monocyte infiltration and platelet dysfunction, and plays a beneficial or harmful role. MiRNA will also become a new field to further study the mechanism of bidirectional regulation of vulnerable plaque by traditional Chinese medicine.
