Results Recently miRNAs is a hot topic in the bone and cartilage tissue. More and more materials show its important regulatory role in osteogenesis and cartilage growth and
regeneration, but the definite mechanisms have not been clear yet. Conclusion The study on miRNAs of bone and cartilage tissue can provide a new access to understanding the degenerative osteoarthritic diseases.
