Abstract:
MicroRNAs ( miRNAs) play an important role in regulating various life activities .It has been confirmed that circulat-ing miRNAs are new biomarkers for the diagnosis of many diseases and closely related with their occurrence and progression .In recent years, miRNAs are found to exist stably in blood and other body fluids in forms of being encapsulated in microvesicle or binding with proteins.Their origins, existence forms and functions have become a hotspot of research in this field .This article reviews the recent studies on the origin , existence form and function of circulating miRNAs associated with cardiovascular disease , aiming to provide some evidence for miRNAs as the biomarker and target of cardiovascular disease .
