Evidence has shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are implicated in ischemic diseases. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to identify the functions of astrocyte (ATC)-derived exosomal miR-361 on cerebral ischemic-reperfusion (I/R) injury. A rat model of cerebral I/R injury was initially established, followed by injection of ATC-derived exosomes. ...
