The screening of dysregulated miRNAs in both humans and animal models of MSA revealed that miR-96 is upregulated in these cases (probably miR-96-5p, since miR-96-3p was displayed as miR-96* in the earlier version of miRBase), resulting in downregulation of EAAC1 and a taurine transporter (TauT, also known as SLC6A6), another solute carrier family protein [18]. Here, SLC1A1 is linked to multiple system atrophy.
