摘要
In recent years, prominent roles for microRNAs (miRNAs) have been uncovered in several cardiovascular disorders. The ability to therapeutically manipulate miRNA expression and function through systemic or local delivery of miRNA inhibitors, referred to as antimiRs, has triggered enthusiasm for miRNAs as novel therapeutic targets. Here, we focus on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of current antimiR designs and their relevance to cardiovascular indications, and evaluate the opportunities and obstacles associated with this new therapeutic modality.
