MIR219A1 is a microRNA gene located within a 200 kb region on chromosome 6, which is associated with several genes including HLA-DPA1, HLA-DPB1, and COL11A2 [PMC10016042]. This microRNA has been observed to be downregulated in the cortex of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients [PMC7564652]. The downregulation of MIR219A1 in AD is consistent with previous findings, as it has been reported to be downregulated in the brain of AD patients [PMC7564652]. MIR219A1 is known to target Tau protein and its phosphorylation, which are critical processes in the development of AD pathology [PMC7564652]. The dysregulation of MIR219A1 and other miRNAs like MIR29B1 and MIR129-2 has been confirmed in the cortex of AD patients, indicating their potential role in the disease's progression [PMC7564652]. Although its exact role in AD is not fully clear, it has been shown that MIR219A1 expression decreases by 9-fold in affected individuals [PMC7564652]. Additionally, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within MIR219A1 have shown significant associations with AD, suggesting a genetic component to its involvement with the disease [PMC4895015]. Changes in expression patterns of miRNAs including MIR219A1 have been observed across studies on neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's [PMC9702351].
