MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression. Emerging evidence has suggested a role for miRNAs in the development of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), indicating that miRNAs may represent potential biomarkers of this disease. However, results are still inconclusive. There...
