MicroRNA-495 Inhibits New Bone Regeneration via Targeting High Mobility Group AT-Hook 2 (HMGA2)

BACKGROUND MicroRNAs play critical roles in post-translational gene expression. In this study, we explored the role of miR-495 in new bone regeneration. MATERIAL AND METHODS Murine calvarial osteoblasts were isolated and cultured. Microarray was performed to identify differential miRNAs in medicarpin-induced osteoblasts differentiation. Luciferase reporter assay was performed to identify the target gene of miRNA. Murine osteoblast cells were...
