The muscle-specific microRNA miR-206 has recently emerged as a potential regulator of genes involved in the formation and regeneration of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). This study investigated miR-206-3p (miR-206) expression in synaptic and non-synaptic regions of denervated mice and α-dystrobrevin (Dtna)-knockout mice, as well as its impact on the formation and/or maintenance of agrin-induced acetylcholine receptor (AChR) clusters. In denervated, Dtna-deficient and crushed muscles, miR-206 expression significantly increased compared to what was seen for innervated muscles.
