Zhang et al. found that the expression of adenosine deaminase, RNA-specific (ADAR1) and miR-222 was increased in CVB3 induced VMC model, and the study in vitro showed that ADAR1 combined Dicer increased cell viability by inducing miR-222 synthesis which decreased the confirmed target phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) expression (Zhang X. et al., 2019). Here, ADAR is linked to liver mesenchymal hamartoma.
