Patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, increased ventricular volume, pressure overload or dysynergistic ventricular contraction and relaxation are susceptible to develop serious ventricular arrhythmias (VA). These phenomena are primarily based on a theory of mechanoelectric feedback, which reflects mechanical changes that produce alterations in electrical activity. However, very few systematic studies have provided evidence of the preventive effects of artemisinin (ART) on VA in response to left ventricle (LV) afterload increases. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that regulate expression of multiple genes by suppressing mRNAs post-transcriptionally.

Central online repository for microRNA nomenclature, sequence data, annotation and target prediction.Collection of published miRNA sequences and annotation.
View all literature mentionsWeb tool to predict biological targets of miRNAs by searching for presence of conserved 8mer, 7mer and 6mer sites that match seed region of each miRNA. Nonconserved sites are also predicted and sites with mismatches in seed region that are compensated by conserved 3' pairing. Used to search for predicted microRNA targets in mammals.
View all literature mentionsIntegrated database resource consisting of 16 main databases, broadly categorized into systems information, genomic information, and chemical information. In particular, gene catalogs in completely sequenced genomes are linked to higher-level systemic functions of cell, organism, and ecosystem. Analysis tools are also available. KEGG may be used as reference knowledge base for biological interpretation of large-scale datasets generated by sequencing and other high-throughput experimental technologies.
