SOX6 and renal fibrosis: Several studies have shown that SRY-box transcription factor 6 (SOX6) may be a target of miR-342-3p in renal or cardiac injuries [29, 30] and implicate in renal fibrosis [29, 31], so we sought to examine whether SOX6 plays a role for the anti-fibrosis effect of miR-342-3p during oral fibrogenesis.
