VEGFA and wet macular degeneration: In addition to the VEGFA control, miR‐126‐3p down‐regulation is associated with increased inflammation, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), regulatory proteins expression and cellular proliferation.35, 36, 37, 38 Therefore, miR‐126‐3p may be an important epigenetic regulator in the development of wet AMD.
