MicroRNA involved in endometriosis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are naturally occurring posttranscriptional regulatory molecules that potentially play a role in endometriotic lesion development. A number of miRNAs are regulated by 17β-estradiol in the endometrial epithelial and stromal cells, including miR-21, miR-23a, miR-26a-1, miR-203, miR-181a, miR-424, and miR-34c. MicroRNA-15b, miR-126 have been predicted to target the expression of VEGF-A; miR-34c-5p – the expression of EGF.
