MicroRNA-19a enhances proliferation of bronchial epithelial cells by targeting<i>TGF</i>β<i>R2</i>gene in severe asthma

Abstract

Our study uncovers a new regulatory pathway involving miR-19a that is critical to the severe phenotype of asthma and indicates that downregulating miR-19a expression could be explored as a potential new therapy to modulate epithelium repair in asthma.
