Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of microRNA-92a maintains podocyte cell cycle quiescence and limits crescentic glomerulonephritis

Crescentic rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis is a severe form of glomerula disease characterized by podocyte proliferation and migration. Here Henique et al. demonstrate that inhibition of miRNA-92a prevents kidney failure by promoting the expression of CDK inhibitor p57Kip2 that regulates podo...
