This book focuses on the importance of regulatory RNAs in the vasculature. The main topics discussed include the role of regRNAs in vascular development and angiogenesis, ischemic cardiovascular disease and repair mechanisms, diabetic and metabolic vascular disease, atherosclerosis and vascular inflammation, as well as diagnostics of vascular disease using circulating miRNAs. Lastly, it offers an overview of emerging topics such as microvesicle-mediated miRNA cellular trafficking and the vascular importance of long non-coding RNAs. It is an invaluable resource for academics, researchers and students working in the field of vascular biology.Preface; Contents; 1: Regulation of Atherosclerosis by microRNAs; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 miRNA-Mediated Regulatory Mechanisms; 1.2.1 Regulatory Mechanisms of miRNA Strands Derived from a Single Precursor; 1.2.2 RNA Sponges in the Regulation of miRNA Activity; 1.2.3 Circulating miRNAs: Messengers on the Move; 1.3 Regulation of Inflammatory Macrophage Activation by a miRNA Tandem; 1.4 Combined Roles of miR-126-3p and miR-126-5p in Endothelial Regeneration and Their Use in Therapeutic Approaches; 1.5 Lipoprotein-Mediated miRNA Transfer; 1.6 Conclusions and Future Work; References. 2: Noncoding RNAs in Cholesterol Metabolism and Atherosclerosis2.1 Introduction; 2.2 miRNAs Regulating HDL-C Metabolism and Reverse Cholesterol Transport; 2.2.1 miR-33a/miR-33b; 2.2.2 miR-33a/miR-33b and Atherosclerosis; 2.3 miRNAs and LDL-C Metabolism; 2.3.1 miRNAs That Regulate Cholesterol Biosynthesis and VLDL Secretion; 2.3.1.1 miR-122; 2.3.1.2 miR-30c in Lipid Metabolism and Atherosclerosis; 2.3.1.3 miR-33a/miR-33b; 2.3.1.4 miR-96/miR-182/miR-183; 2.3.2 miRNAs That Regulate LDLR Expression and LDL-C Clearance; 2.3.2.1 miR-148a; 2.3.2.2 miR-128-1; 2.3.2.3 miR-185.
