ncRNA name | hsa-miR-200b |
ncRNA Category | miRNA |
Disease name | diabetic retinopathy (DR) |
Species | Homo sapiens |
Tissues/Cell_line | human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs); human embryonic kidney cell line HEK293A |
Methods | microarray, luciferase reporter assay, ELISA, tube formation assay, immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization |
Expression pattern | down-regulated |
Functional description | In the retina, miR-200b was localized in neuronal, glial, and vascular elements. Transfection of endothelial cells and intravitreal injection of miR-200b mimic prevented diabetes-induced increased VEGF mRNA and protein. Also prevented were glucose-induced increased permeability and angiogenesis. |
