Abstract:
[Summary] MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of endogenous small molecule non‐coding RNAs ,which can inhibit target gene expression via blocking protein translation or inducing mRNA degradation.MicroRNA is also involved in some important physiological processes ,such as cell development , differentiation ,proliferation and apoptosis. Recently ,studies have shown that miRNA plays a role in the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR). This article summarized the research progress of correlation between miRNAs and DR.
