摘要

MicroRNA(miRNA)是内源性的长度为20~25 nt的一类非编码RNA,广泛存在于真核生物体内,具有调节基因表达活性的功能。其在生命活动中起着至关重要的作用,如动植物的生长发育、细胞分化、增殖与凋亡、肿瘤发生与发展等。MiRNA无论在数量上还是功能上,可能都远远超过目前的发现。对其进行深入研究,将有助于对生物体的各种生理、病理机制的理解,并最终为疾病的诊断、判断预后和治疗提供新的思路和理论基础。

Abstract

MicroRNA (miRNA) are small, non-coding endogenous RNAs with 20~25 nucleotides (nt) in length, which widely exist in eukaryotes and possess the function of regulating gene expression. miRNAs participate in various physiological/pathophysiological processes such as cell growth and development, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, hormone secretion and tumor formation. No matter in terms of the quantity or function of miRNAs, the current findings on miRNAs are not enough. So further study on miRNAs can help us to understand the mechanism of physiological and pathological in various organisms and provide new ideas and basis theoretical for disease diagnosis, judgment, prognosis and treatment ultimately. In recent years, along with the development of genomics and proteomics technology, miRNA microarray and mass spectrometric detection make miRNAs become a crucial role in the study of human diseases.
