Mechanical Stretch Modulates MicroRNA 21 Expression, Participating in Proliferation and Apoptosis in Cultured Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells

OBJECTIVES: Stretch affects vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and apoptosis, and several responsible genes have been proposed. We tested whether the expression of microRNA 21 (miR-21) is modulated by stretch and is involved in stretch-induced proliferation and apoptosis of human aortic smoot...
