MicroRNA-98 negatively regulates myocardial infarction-induced apoptosis by down-regulating Fas and caspase-3

Abstract Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause of sudden death worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRs) is a novel class of regulators of cardiovascular diseases such as MI. This study aimed to explore the role of miR-98 in MI and its underlying mechanisms. We found that miR-98 was downregulated...
