The role of miR-128 and MDFI in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure: Mechanistic

Heart failure (HF) prognosis depends on various regulatory factors; microRNA-128 (miR-128) is identified as a regulator of cardiac fibrosis, contributing to HF. MyoD family inhibitor (MDFI), which is reported to be related with Wnt/β-catenin pathway, is supposed to be regulated by miR-128. This study investigates the interaction between miR-128 and MDFI in cardiomyocyte development and elucidates its role in heart injury. Gene expression profiling assessed miR-128's effect on MDFI expression in...
