Abstract:
MicroRNA (microRNA) is a kind of non-coding single-stranded RNA encoded by endogenous genes.Its main function is to regulate protein synthesis.The role of microRNAs in liver diseases has been a research hotspot in recent years.A large number of studies have found that microRNAs are expressed in different types of liver diseases and at different stages of the same disease.Detection of microRNAs is of great help in the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases.This article reviews the research progress of the role of microRNAs in liver diseases in recent years.
