We found that up-regulated miRNAs (miR-346, miR-135b, miR-30ab, miR-344, miR-18a, miR-99a, miR-210, miR-207, miR-18a, and miR-129) in ARDS were inversely correlated with the expression of their predicted targets such as Gabrb1, Mdh1, Eif2ak1, Fbln5, and Tspan8. The gene discussed is TSPAN8; the disease is acute respiratory distress syndrome.
