title: A universal activator of microRNAs identified from photoreaction products.
abstract: A small molecule activator of microRNAs has been identified from photoreaction products of naphthalene-1,4-dione with acetylenes and the universal activation on miRNAs was realized through significant promotion on the processing of precursor microRNAs by the compound.
