Bone marrow stroma-derived miRNAs as regulators, biomarkers and therapeutic targets of bone metastasis.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, endogenous RNA molecules that have essential roles in regulating gene expression. They control numerous physiological and cellular processes, including normal bone organogenesis and homeostasis, by enhancing or inhibiting bone marrow cell growth, differentiation, functional activity and crosstalk of the multiple cell types within the bone. Hence, elucidating miRNA ...
متن کاملTumour-derived miRNAs and bone metastasis.
Skeletal metastases are complications of epithelial cancers, among which breast, prostate and lung carcinomas are the most osteotropic. In primary tumours, a subset of cancer cells undergoes epithelial-mesenchymal transition, acquires mobility to migrate into the surrounding stroma and seeds at distant sites to grow. The specific development of bone metastasis requires the recruitment of circul...
متن کاملThe Role of Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Metastases
Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms. Methods: The patients were referred to the Hema...
متن کاملNew therapeutic targets for cancer bone metastasis.
Bone metastases are dejected consequences of many types of tumors including breast, prostate, lung, kidney, and thyroid cancers. This complicated process begins with the successful tumor cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition, escape from the original site, and penetration into the circulation. The homing of tumor cells to the bone depends on both tumor-intrinsic traits and various molecules su...
متن کاملMiRNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer.
The knowledge that miRNA expression is frequently dysregulated in cancer has uncovered an entirely new repertoire of molecular factors upstream of gene expression, with exciting potential as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer. Exploiting the unique characteristics of these molecules including their stability, tissue specificity, ease of detection and manipulation, will bring cli...
