Research status and progress of miR-15a in ophthalmological diseases / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

@#miRNA-15a(miR-15a)is a non-coding small molecule RNA located on 13q14 gene. It affects the growth, development, differentiation and apoptosis of all organs and cells of the whole body. As the study progressively deepened, it was found that the role of miR-15a in different tissues and cells was not entirely consistent. Sometimes it plays a role in suppressing cancer, and sometimes it promotes cancer. The signal pathways it affects are complex and diverse. With the deepening of biological research into cell signaling pathways, miRNA-15a has become a miRNA more extensively studied. But in the ophthalmology, the corresponding research is not much. In this article, we mainly focus on the mechanism of miR-15a and its current research situation in ophthalmic diseases, so as to provide a reference for further study and their treatment.
