MIR466 is a microRNA (miRNA) implicated in the regulation of gene expression in various biological processes, including the stress response in sorghum, where it is known to regulate serine/threonine protein kinase [PMC5360763]. In the context of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), MIR466, along with mir1186, targets five genes that show differential expression in patients: Lcp1, Nox4, Rgs5, Dst, and Cpm [PMC5429617]. Additionally, MIR466 is one of several miRNAs that have been identified to bind to the 3′ UTR region of MMP9 and potentially downregulate its expression [PMC4568920]. In cardiovascular disease models specifically related to diabetes, MIR466 has been shown to regulate matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and promote endothelial cell proliferation and capillary-like structure formation [PMC8355361]. Furthermore, for experimental modulation of miRNA activity in endothelial cells (ECs), a specific inhibitor for MIR466 has been developed and utilized [PMC9307898].
