A model for the functions of miR-133a in the heart. SRF and MEF2 activate miR-133a expression, which directly or indirectly represses genes involved in many aspects of heart development and function, including sarcomeric structures, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and the smooth muscle gene program. miR-133a directly targets SRF, which provides a negative feedback loop to precisely modulate SRF activity.
