Abstract

This disclosure relates to manipulating microRNA for the management of neurological disorders and compositions related thereto. In certain embodiments, the disclosure contemplates inhibition of miR324 or miR324-5p, e.g., the use of nucleobase polymers for antisense disruptions or RNA interference of miR-324 expression or for miR324-5p binding in order to increase Kv4.2 expression. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of treating or preventing a neurological disease or condition comprising administering an effective amount of an inhibitor to a subject in need thereto.
