miRNAtherapieën
miRNAtherapieën, also known as microRNA therapies, are a novel class of therapeutics that target microRNAs (miRNAs) to treat diseases. miRNAs are small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression. They can inhibit protein synthesis by binding to messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules. In many diseases, the expression levels of certain miRNAs are altered, leading to dysregulation of vital cellular processes.
miRNAtherapieën aim to restore normal miRNA function. This can be achieved in two primary ways: by inhibiting
The therapeutic potential of miRNAtherapieën spans a wide range of conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, neurological
Despite promising preclinical results, the clinical translation of miRNAtherapieën faces challenges. These include ensuring efficient delivery
