Article Synopsis
  • miR-34a is a microRNA found primarily in the brain and is believed to influence brain development and functions, including neural stem cell activity and memory formation.
  • Studies previously relied on methods that might cause inaccurate results, so researchers analyzed mice with a complete deletion of miR-34a.
  • The results showed that while miR-34a deletion did not significantly impact brain structure or memory-related behaviors, it did result in motor activity issues, suggesting that miR-34a may specifically affect motor functions rather than broader brain development roles.
