MicroRNA in bone diagnostics and treatment looking into the future

Hackl Matthias

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that control the expression of 70% of the protein-coding genes. Since their discovery in the late 1990s, the function of miRNAs in the context of biological pathways that are essential to bone homeostasis has been investigated. This has expanded our understanding of the mechanisms underlying bone health and disease and led to the identification of novel drug and biomarker candidates. From a diagnostic viewpoint the seminal finding that mi...
