HOTAIR/miRNA-1/Cx43: A potential mechanism for treating myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury

We have recently read the report by Su et al. [1] concerning “Value of circulating miRNA-1 detected within 3 h after the onset of acute chest pain in the diagnosis and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction”. This clinical study provides insights into the potential of miRNA-1 as a diagnostic biomarker for patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). However, the specific molecular mechanism regulating miRNA-1 has not yet been elucidated.
