Microrna and uses thereof in prevention and/or treatment of fibroplasia medical sign and/or syndrome
Provided are microRNA from a rhodiola root and uses thereof in the prevention and/or the treatment of a fibroplasia medical sign and/or syndrome.
1. A method of treating a fibrotic disease and/or syndrome comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a polynucleotide, wherein the polynucleotide comprises a sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 11 and wherein the fibrotic disease and/or syndrome is a fibrotic disease and/or syndrome of lung.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fibrotic disease and/or syndrome is selected from the group consisting of:
silicosis, asbestosis, anthracosis, farmer's lung, air-conditioner lung, pigeon-breeder's lung, bagassosis and familial pulmonary fibrosis.
3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising administering an additional anti-fibrotic agent separately and/or together, temporally and/or spatially, to the subject in need thereof, wherein the additional anti-fibrotic agent is an agent for treating the fibrotic disease/syndrome of lung.
4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the additional anti-fibrotic agent is one or more selected from the group consisting of: a glucocorticoid, an immunosuppressive agent, an antioxidant, an anticoagulant, colchicine, interferon, ACEI and a statin.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the polynucleotide is synthetic or expressed from an artificial vector.
