Micro-vesicles from mesenchymal stem cells over-expressing miR-34a inhibit transforming growth factor-β1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal tubular epithelial cells in vitro

Abstract. Background. The use of microRNAs in the therapy of kidney disease is hampered by the difficulties in their effective delivery. Micro-vesicles (MVs) are known as natural carriers of small RNAs. Our prior research has demonstrated that MVs isolated from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are capa...
