Abstract

Several microRNAs (miRNAs) strongly influence blood pressure and the development of hypertension by modulating vascular, renal, and other physiological mechanisms. In addition, miRNAs may contribute to the genetic regulation of blood pressure. Future research should focus on investigating select miRNAs with potent physiological effects, understanding cellular context-dependent mechanisms conferring specificity to miRNA action, and integrating miRNAs as powerful modulators into the molecular system that underlies the regulation of blood pressure and the development of hypertension.
