摘要
microRNA-24 (miR-24)属于miR-23~27~24家族,高表达于血管内皮细胞(vascular endothelial cells, VECs),并调控VECs多种特异性基因的表达。研究显示,miR-24参与VECs增殖、凋亡、血管形成、炎性反应和分化等功能的调节,而它的表达异常与VECs功能紊乱及损伤密切相关,且参与心血管疾病的发生和发展。本文就miR-24参与调控VECs功能的分子机制,及其在心血管疾病发生发展过程中的作用作一综述。

Abstract
microRNA-24 (miR-24) belongs to miR-23~27~24 cluster. It is highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells (VECs), and plays an important role in the regulation of VECs specific gene expression. Recent studies indicate that miR-24 is involved in the regulation of VECs function such as proliferation, apoptosis, angiopoiesis, inflammation, and differentiation. The dysregulation of miR-24 is associated with dysfunction or even damage of VECs, and contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease. In this review, we summarized the molecular mechanisms of miR-24 in regulating VECs function, and its role and importance during the development of cardiovascular disease.
Key words: Vascular endothelial cell; miR-24; VECs function; cardiovascular disease
