Abstract:
The disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions including an oligonucleotide that down-regulates the over-expression of at least one miRNA of SEQ ID NOs: 1-283. The oligonucleotide may be complementary to the nucleotide sequence of at least one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-283, or hybridizes under stringent conditions to a nucleotide sequence of at least one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-283. Further provided are methods of diagnosing Parkinson's Disease (PD) in a subject. The methods may include detecting the level of expression of at least one miRNA of SEQ ID NOs: 1-283 in a biological sample from the subject, and comparing the level of expression in the sample to the level of expression in a reference. Further provided are methods for treating, preventing, or reducing the risk of PD. Kits are also provided.
