MICRORNA LET-7 AND TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR BETA RECEPTOR III AXIS AS TARGET FOR CARDIAC INJURIES

摘要

Methods for ameliorating cardiac is juries such as myocardial infarction by either enhancing the activity of a let-7 microRNA or inhibiting the activity of transformation growth factor beta receptor III (T GFBR3). Also provided herein are assay methods for detecting the level of TGFBR3, the level of a let-7 microRNA, or both in a biological sample.
