miRNA inhibitors
miRNA inhibitors are specialized molecules designed to block the activity of microRNAs (miRNAs), which are small RNA fragments that regulate gene expression. By inhibiting specific miRNAs, these molecules can prevent miRNAs from attaching to their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), thereby modulating the production of proteins involved in various biological processes. This approach is useful in research and potential therapies to correct abnormal gene regulation associated with diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular conditions, and neurological disorders. Essentially, miRNA inhibitors serve as tools to fine-tune gene activity by neutralizing the impact of particular miRNAs.
