A recent study from the Institute for Cardiovascular Regeneration, Centre of Molecular Medicine, Frankfurt, Germany shows that “MicroRNA-34a regulates cardiac ageing and function.” This study was published in the March 7 2013 issue of Nature by Prof Dimmler, Boon, and others.
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Small RNA-based therapy for Myocardial Infarction: MIRNA-566 improves myocardial function after myocardial infarction via up regulation of PNUTS/PPP1R10 (Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 10). By increasing the expression of miR-566 in cardiomyocytes, one may prevent ageing-associated decline in cardiac function. Together, this study suggests that pharmacological formulations encompassing “miR-566 or its activators” may be used to improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction.
