miR-150-5p mediates extravillous trophoblast cell migration and angiogenesis functions by regulating VEGF and MMP9.

Introduction: miR-150-5p is involved in placenta function. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in migration and invasion of cells, while VEGF is the major contributing factor in angiogenesis, and they are related to miR-150-5p. However, the mechanism by which miR-150-5p regulates placental functions is not known.
