Although miR-133 mitigates cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, fine tunes β1-AR signaling, and protects against oxidative stress mediated apoptosis, it is unclear whether overexpression of miR-133a can ameliorate left ventricular function in failing hearts. Considering its multidisciplinary role in the heart, it is suggested that miR-133a is a master regulator of several networks that controls pathological cardiac remodeling. Therefore, it is a promising therapeutic target for heart failure.
