The Role of microRNAs in Alzheimer”s Disease and Stroke
Polygenetic risk factors and reduced expression of many genes in late-onset Alzheimer”s disease (AD) impedes identification of a target(s) for disease-modifying therapies.We identified a single microRNA, miR-34a that is over expressed in specific brain regions of AD patients as well as in the 3xTg-AD mouse model.Specifically, increased miR-34a expression in the temporal cortex region compared to age matched healthy control correlates with severity of AD pathology.
