Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNAs that act as key regulators of diverse biological processes by mediating translational repression or mRNA degradation of target genes. Recent studies discovered miRNAs in saliva, and these miRNAs are promising candidates for use as biomarkers of dental diseases. In this review, the results of miRNA studies in the dental field are presented, and a brief overview of the current progress, limitations, and perspectives regarding miRNA biomarkers for dental diseases is given.

microrna作为口腔疾病的生物标志物

MicroRNAs (miRNAs)是一种短的非编码rna，通过介导靶基因的翻译抑制或mRNA降解，在多种生物过程中起关键调节作用。最近的研究在唾液中发现了mirna，这些mirna是有希望用作牙科疾病生物标志物的候选者。本文综述了miRNA在牙科领域的研究成果，并简要概述了目前miRNA生物标志物在牙科疾病中的进展、局限性和展望。
