MicroRNAs: new players in acute myeloid leukaemia

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that have key functions in a wide array of critical cell processes, including haematopoiesis by regulating the expression of multiple genes. Aberrant miRNA expression has been described in acute myeloid leukaemia suggesting a role in leukaemogenesis. In t...

Sumario:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that have key functions in a wide array of critical cell processes, including haematopoiesis by regulating the expression of multiple genes. Aberrant miRNA expression has been described in acute myeloid leukaemia suggesting a role in leukaemogenesis. In this review we summarise the current knowledge.
