Role of miR-21 in cardioprotection. Up-regulation of miR-21 due to various interventions (e.g., ischemic conditioning, pharmacological and non-pharmacological, or miR-21 mimics) seems to serve cardioprotection mainly against I/R injury of the heart via inhibition of apoptosis and oxidative stress, and promoting angiogenesis.
