The emerging role of microRNAs in schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders
Open accessAbstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs conserved throughout evolution whose perceived importance for brain development and maturation is increasingly being understood. Although a plethora of new discoveries have provided novel insights into miRNA-mediated molecular mechanisms that influence brain plasticity, their relevance for neuropsychiatric diseases with known deficits in synaptic plasticity, such as schizophrenia and autism, has not been adequately explored. In this review we discuss the intersection between current and old knowledge on the role of miRNAs in brain plasticity and function with a focus in the potential involvement of brain expressed miRNAs in the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Several experimental miRNA-based therapies for schizophrenia, MDD, anxiety, and neurodevelopmental disorders are currently under investigation.
“In addition to HDAC inhibitors, several experimental miRNA-based therapies for psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia, MDD, anxiety, and neurodevelopmental disorders are currently under investigation (122).”
From The clinical use of epigenetics in psychiatry: a narrative review of epigenetic mechanisms, key candidate genes, and precision psychiatry (2025) · cites this paper as [122]
The Conclusion (page unavailable) discusses miRNAs as possible biomarkers and suggests that patient-derived neurons might help discover future treatment options. It does not report experimental miRNA-based therapies under investigation for schizophrenia, MDD, anxiety, or neurodevelopmental disorders. Searches for therapies, therapeutic treatment, depression, and anxiety found no passage establishing that claim. (LLM, conf=0.72)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
