STAT3 and pulmonary fibrosis: A total of four miRNA targets, ADAM10, COL1A1, CTNNBIP1, and STAT3, were chosen for validation in lung and liver samples, based on their functions in tissue regenerative processes in these organs, such as in (pulmonary) fibrosis after trauma, regulation of the inflammatory response, Wingless-related integration site signalling pathway (Wnt-signalling), and liver- and alveolar-tissue homeostasis.
