miRNAs and Leukotrienes in Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that regulate posttranscription by binding to 3′-untranslated regions of target mRNAs. Recent functional studies have elucidated mechanisms that miRNAs regulate leukotriene synthesis by perturbing arachidonic acid metabolism. Both microarrays and high-th...
