Evolutionary Changes in the Interaction of miRNA With mRNA of Candidate Genes for Parkinson's Disease.

Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibits the second-highest rate of mortality among neurodegenerative diseases. PD is difficult to diagnose and treat due to its polygenic nature. In recent years, numerous studies have established a correlation between this disease and miRNA expression; however, it remains necessary to determine the quantitative characteristics of the interactions between miRNAs and their target genes.
