miR-29 family
The miR-29 family is a group of three microRNAs, miR-29a, miR-29b, and miR-29c, encoded from four genes on chromosomes 1 and 7, that repress extracellular matrix genes and curb fibrosis.
MIR29A
MIR29A (microRNA 29a, hsa-mir-29a, HGNC:31616) is a human non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 7q32.3 encoding miR-29a, a tumor-suppressive, antifibrotic microRNA clustered with miR-29b-1 and studied as a biomarker in cancer, fibrosis, and HIV-1.
