Down-regulation of serum miR-151a-3p is associated with renal tissue activity in class IV lupus nephritis.

CONCLUSIONS: Serum miR-151a-3p expression was decreased in class IV LN patients compared with healthy control volunteers and was negatively correlated with renal tissue activity. Thus, miR-151a-3p may play a employed for diagnosing class IV LN and evaluating renal tissue activity. PMID: 29998838 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
