Calcineurin-NFAT signaling regulates atrogin-1 and MuRF1 via microRNA-23a (miR-23a) during muscle atrophy

Muscle atrophy is prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. MicroRNAs play a critical role in biological processes including muscle atrophy. MicroRNA-23a (miR-23a) negatively regulates the expression of two atrophy-related ubiquitin ligases, atrogin-1 and MuRF1; it is reduced in muscle dur...
