Abstract
#MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small; #noncodingRNA molecules characterized
as #posttranscriptional negative regulators of gene expression
and play a critical role in #cellproliferation, cell development, cell
differentiation, #apoptosis, #metabolism, and signal #transduction. The
miR-
196a2T>C and miR-499A>G #polymorphisms have been implicated as risk
factors for recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSAs). Mature miR-
196a-2 represses the expression of transcription factor HOXB8, a home
box protein involved in implantation, and of #annexinA1 (ANXA1)
related to anti-inflammation inhibiting NF-κB pathway. Mature miR-499
preferentially inhibits the transcription of SOX6 mRNA, a #transcriptionrepressor of FGF-3 associated with cell proliferation and cell
differentiation of developing fetal tissues.
