ALD miRNA expression
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Alcoholic liver diseases (ALDs) encompass a broad spectrum of clinical features of alcoholic fatty liver, alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis, and increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. While the toxic effects of alcohol likely result from complex interactions between genes and the environment, the molecular mechanisms of alcohol-induced liver damage remains undefined. Thus, a better understanding of the mechanisms regulating hepatic cell injury may lead to more effective therapeutic approaches for ALD. Here we compared the miRNA expression profile from tissues from control mice and mice receiving intragastric ethanol feeding. Four microarray hybridization studies were performed on three different pairs of liver-derived RNA from intragastric ethanol feeding and normal mice. The miRNAs differentially overexpressed in livers from ethanol fed mice.
