MicroRNA-206 and its down-regulation of Wilms'Tumor-1 dictate podocyte health in adriamycin-induced nephropathy.
CONCLUSIONS: Over expression of miR-206 promotes podocyte injury via downregulation of WT1, which provides a new pathogenic mechanism for FSGS and miR-206 may be a potential therapeutic target.
