Muscarinic receptor M3 contributes to vascular and neural growth factor up-regulation in severe asthma

Simple Summary Nc-RNA are microRNA, long-coding RNA, and circulating-RNA. In this review we report most recent data regarding the role of nc-RNA in airway diseases, with a particular attention to microRNA. They are short, endogenously initiated non-coding RNAs involved in post-transcriptionally control gene expression via either translational repression or mRNA degradation. MiRNAs play significant roles in control of cell mechanisms involved in developmental timing and host-pathogen interactions as well as cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. Today the knowledge of the functions of the micro-RNA are of fundamental importance to define the subtypes of inflammatory diseases of the lung and to understand the effectiveness of the treatment. Inflammation of the human lung is mediated in response to different stimuli (e.g., physical, radioactive, infective, pro-allergenic, or toxic) such as cigarette smoke and environmental pollutants. These stimuli often promote an increase in differe
