Following
viral infection, host cells alter their microRNAs (miRNAs) expression
as a defense against infection, while viruses can circumvent host
defense and promote their own propagation by affecting host cellular
miRNAs expression or by expressing their own miRNAs
miRNAs,
microRNAs; TGF‐β, transforming growth factor‐β; COX6C, cytochrome c
oxidase VIC; NGF, nerve growth factor; TrkA, tropomyosin‐related kinase
A; NF‐kB, nuclear factor kappa B; HMPV, human metapneumovirus; HCMV,
human cytomegalovirus; CAR, Coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor;
HDGF, hepatoma‐derived growth factor.

"RNA Viruses
Unlike
DNA viruses, RNA viruses usually do not encode their own miRNA, and the
reasons behind this discrepancy are debated theoretically 89.
The majority of RNA viruses replicate in the cytoplasm where they
cannot access the nuclear enzyme Drosha, which is required for miRNA
processing. Those RNA viruses, which do have access to the nucleus (e.g.
influenza and HIV‐1), may avoid encoding their own miRNAs because
excision of a primary miRNA from RNA virus genome would induce cleavage
and destruction of viral genome 20, 27. In addition, viruses that undergo short lytic replication cycles are less likely to encode miRNAs 22."
Influenza
infection of airway epithelial cells induces or inhibits certain
cellular microRNAs (miRNAs) expression in favor of viral replication,
pathogenesis, and also suppress anti‐viral responses. However, certain
cellular miRNAs can inhibit replication of influenza in infected cells,
and certain miRNAs play important roles in priming airway cells for
repair and regeneration following influenza infection
