Summary
Caution, this is an AI generated summary based on literature. This may have errors. ?

MIR34C is a microRNA implicated in the regulation of gene expression, including the gene Bcl-2, which is known to play a role in cell survival and apoptosis [PMC4067617]. In a study where embryos were treated with VFm34cI, an inhibitor of MIR34C, an increase in Bcl-2 expression was observed on the first day post-treatment [PMC4067617]. This suggests that the VisuFect-mediated delivery of MIR34C inhibitor was successful and that the inhibitor was functioning effectively within the zygotes [PMC4067617]. Additionally, to assess the impact of Zika virus infection on MIR34C expression levels, real-time PCR assays were conducted on three different clones [PMC6425033]. This analysis confirmed that Zika infection induces changes in MIR34C expression [PMC6425033], which could have implications for understanding how Zika virus affects embryonic development and gene regulation.

Comments
Houbaviy et al. cloned 3 closely related sequences from mouse embryonic stem cells [1], and named them miR-34a, miR-34b and miR-172. These names have been remapped to miR-34c (MIR:MI0000403), miR-34b (MIR:MI0000404) and miR-34a (MIR:MI0000584) to clarify homology with human sequences.
