Summary
Caution, this is an AI generated summary based on literature. This may have errors. ?

MIR187 is a microRNA implicated in the regulation of immune responses and has been observed to modulate the potassium channel KCNK10/TREK-2 in a rat epilepsy model [PMC7041117]. It acts as a negative modulator of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) responses, directly limiting TNF-α production and reducing IL-6 and IL-12p40 transcription by targeting the transcription factor IkB [PMC5900789]. MIR187 is also part of a miRNA network driven by IL-10, which promotes anti-inflammatory responses while suppressing pro-inflammatory miRNAs [PMC5900789]. Upon LPS stimulation, IL-10 enhances miR146b and sustains MIR187 expression in myeloid cells, indicating its role in inflammatory regulation [PMC5900789]. In reproductive pathology, MIR187 has been identified as significantly overexpressed in the villus of women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) [PMC5572592], and its expression is associated with immune infiltration levels in different immune-infiltrating groups [PMC7163112]. These findings suggest that MIR187 may serve as a potential biomarker for immune-related conditions and could be a target for therapeutic intervention to modulate inflammatory responses.

Do you think this miRNA is real?
Comments
This human miRNA was predicted by computational methods using conservation with mouse and Fugu rubripes sequences [1]. Expression of the excised miR has been validated in zebrafish, and the 5' end mapped by PCR. Landgraf et al. confirm expression in human [2]. The mature sequence shown here represents the most commonly cloned form from large-scale cloning studies [2].
