Popis: | Myocardial infarction is a substantial contributor to ischemic heart diseases, affecting a large number of people leading to fatal conditions worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are explicitly emerging as excellent modulators of pathways involved in maintaining cardiomyocyte survival, repair, and regeneration. Altered expression of genes in cardiomyocytes postinfarction can lead to the disordered state of the myocardium, such as cardiac hypertrophy, ischemia-reperfusion injury, left ventricular remodeling, and cardiac fibrosis. Therapeutic targeting of miRNAs in cardiomyocytes can potentially reverse the adverse effects in the heart postinfarction. This review aims to understand the role of several miRNAs involved in the regeneration and repair of cardiomyocytes postmyocardial infarction and presents comprehensive information on the subject. |
