MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well-known candidates for modulating the dysregulated signaling pathways during fibrosis. In this study, we investigated the expression pattern of 16 miRNAs, which have previously been confirmed or predicted to target genes involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis. P...
