One recent study indicated that functional polymorphism in the 3′ UTR site of angiopoietin-1 gene affects the binding sites of miR211, and can reduce the risk of stroke occurrence, while miR129-5p ameliorates inflammation and promotes revascularization after stroke (Chen et al., 2010; Li X.Q. et al., 2017). The gene discussed is ANGPT1; the disease is stroke disorder.
