Latency-Associated Transcript-Derived MicroRNAs in Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Target SMAD3 and SMAD4 in TGF-β/Smad Signaling Pathway.

Background: During its latent infection, hepatic stellate cell (HSV-1) produces only a micro RNA (miRNA) precursor called latency-associated transcript (LAT), which encodes six distinct miRNAs. Recent studies have suggested that some of these miRNAs could target cellular mRNAs. One of the key cell s...
