Does overexpression of miR-101a reduce interstitial fibrosis and improve cardiac performance in a rat model of chronic myocardial infarction?
Overexpression of miR-101a mitigates interstitial fibrosis and improves cardiac performance in a rat model of chronic myocardial infarction via the c-Fos/TGF-β1 pathway.
Pan et al. (2012) studied this question.
