The Role of miR-320 Family in Atherosclerosis
Author(s): Bin Yang*
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), characterized by the development of atherosclerosis and the rupture of plaques,
is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the global. miR-320a/b/c/d/e belongs to miR-320 family,
and accumulating evidence suggested the important roles of miR-320 family in the regulation of Cardio Vascular
Diseases (CVD), such as atherosclerosis. Here, we reviewed the functional significance of miR-320 members in
atherosclerosis and aimed to provide new insights into the prevention, treatment and the screening of therapeutic
targets for CAD
