Abstract: miRNAs participate in multiple biological processes of an organism. Virus is closely related to miRNA in the course of infection. This study aimed to determine the interaction between host and virus-encoded miRNA in the course of infection based on virus-encoded miRNA’s regulation of its own gene, virus-encoded miRNA’s regulation of host gene. The effect of viral infection on expression of host-encoded miRNA was also investigated.
