MicroRNA expression patterns
MicroRNA (miRNA) expression patterns refer to the specific levels and types of miRNAs produced in different cells or tissues. miRNAs are small RNA molecules that regulate gene activity by binding to messenger RNAs, influencing protein production. These patterns vary across different biological conditions, development stages, or disease states, helping to control cellular functions. Understanding miRNA expression provides insights into how genes are regulated and offers potential for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted therapies by highlighting which miRNAs are active or suppressed in particular contexts.
