A model of host miRNA participated in regulating virus infection through four functional mechanisms. (a) Host miRNA directly targets the host gene. (b) Host miRNA as homologous to virus-encoded miRNA and shares same target gene with them. (c) Host miRNA interacts with virus genes. (d) Virus induce the pre-miRNA demethylation to regulate the expression of virus responsible miRNA.
