MIR140
Description
The MIR140 (microRNA 140) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 16.
miR-140 is a microRNA (miRNA) that plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes, including skeletal development, cardiovascular development, and tumorigenesis. It exerts its regulatory function by targeting specific messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules, leading to their degradation or translational inhibition. This, in turn, affects the expression of the genes encoded by these mRNAs. miR-140 is known to target a diverse range of genes, including those involved in bone formation, muscle development, and cell growth. Its dysregulation has been linked to the development of several diseases, such as osteoarthritis, heart disease, and cancer.
