Name Change

[edit]

The article is about the let-7 microRNA family - not about a specific let-7 pri-miRNA or pre-miRNA. The name of the article should be changed to "let-7", "let-7 microRNA", "let-7 microRNA family", or similar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.119.202.121 (talk) 15:28, 13 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A potential reference lead

Israel-led team finds clues to aging in fruit fly testicles A new study led by Hila Toledano of Haifa University helps explain why adult stem cells age and suggests ways to fight it. By Asaf Shtull-Trauring, 2012-07-09
Short of it is let-7 interferes with niche-stem cell communication, stem cells eventually only differentiate rather than produce new stem cell (let-7 stops Imp, which destabilizes Upd, reducing proper self renewal of stem cells). — al-Shimoni (talk) 13:35, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
