A study in humans demonstrated that the miR-1471 was upregulated 10.36-fold in denatured dermis compared to paired normal skin four days post-burn in deep partial thickness burn patients [Liang et al. DOI:10.1016/j.burns.2011.10.014], and a subsequent review confirmed its upregulation four days post-burn in deep partial thickness burn skin versus normal skin [Siu et al. DOI:10.1111/wrr.13100].
