Abstract
Hox genes are key elements for anterio-posterior morphogenesis. Hox genes are tightly regulated at the transcriptional level. This level of regulation, however, is by far not unique, and non-coding RNAs, and in particular micro-RNAs, provide an important supplementary level of regulation. This review recapitulates what is known about Hox-related microRNAs, describes a technique that can be used to address miRNA function and attempts to speculate on the function of regulation by miRNAs and how it may impact on medicine.
