miRNA is a family of small non-coding RNA that consists of 22 nucleotides on average. miRNA are implicated in various cellular activities such as cell proliferation or migration via the modulation of gene expression, and also are linked to the pathogenesis of human diseases. This paper reviews recent research progress about the contribution of miRNA to the pathogenesis of various skin diseases, and possible application of miRNA as the disease markers in each disease. For example, downregulated miR-424-5p in psoriatic skin causes the overexpression of MEK1 and cyclin E1 in psoriatic keratinocytes, resulting in the keratinocyte overgrowth and hyperproliferation seen in the disease. Although there was no significant difference in the serum miR-424-5p levels between psoriasis patients and healthy controls, serum miR-1266-5p levels were significantly upregulated in psoriasis patients, and showed weak and inverse correlation with disease activity. Furthermore, combination of serum levels of miR-146a-5p and -203a-3p was more reliable to distinguish psoriasis patients and normal subjects, than each miRNA alone. Hair shaft miR-424-5p levels were significantly higher in psoriasis patients than normal subjects, while hair root miR-19a-3p levels in psoriasis patients were inversely correlated with the duration between symptom onset and the first visit to the hospital. Future researches of miRNA will enable the advances of their clinical applications including the clarification of pathogenesis, disease markers and novel treatments.
