Yet, their levels were inversely correlated within same NEC samples such as miR-451/TLR4 (receptor), miR-4793-3p/TLR4 (receptor), miR-132/HBEGF (angiogenesis), miR-1290/THBS1 (angiogenesis), miR-132/CD44 (adhesion/chemotaxis) and miR-132/MMP9 (ECM remodeling). The gene discussed is TLR4; the disease is necrotizing enterocolitis.
