Abstract: MicroRNAs(miRNAs) are endogenous non-coding single-stranded RNAs of 18-22nt in eukaryotic organisms, which are combined with their target mRNAs in complete or incomplete complementary way and affect their biology characteristics by negatively regulating the expression of mRNAs. The mechanisms of miRNAs have become the main research fields of biomedicine and they play a major role in detection and treatment of different pathological types. miRNAs are abundant in the vascular system, especially miRNA-21 plays an important role in promoting angiogenesis differentiation of stem cells and may be the important mediators in diseases of vascular system. In this paper, the effect and mechanism of miRNA-21 in promoting angiogenesis differentiation of stem cells was overviewed.

Key words: miRNA-21, Stem cells , angiogenesis differentiation of stem cells
