    Glossary miR-203

    small RNA molecule regulating skin cell differentiation

    miR-203 is a type of microRNA, which are small molecules that help regulate gene expression. Specifically, miR-203 plays a crucial role in skin biology by controlling the differentiation of keratinocytes, the primary cells in the outer layer of the skin. It has also been implicated in various skin conditions and diseases, including psoriasis and certain types of skin cancer.
