Possible miRNA Coregulation of Target Genes in Brain Regions by Both Differential miRNA Expression and miRNA-Targeting-Specific Promoter Methylation
We computationally reanalysed public domain data set deposited to gene expression omnibus, of mRNA expression, miRNA expression and promoter methylation pattern in four brain regions, i.e., frontal cortex, temporal cortex, pons and cerebellum. Then we found that more than hundreds of both miRNA regulation of target genes and miRNA-targeting-specific promoter methylation are significant on all s...
متن کاملImpact of miRNA Sequence on miRNA Expression and Correlation between miRNA Expression and Cell Cycle Regulation in Breast Cancer Cells
The miRNAs regulate cell functions by inhibiting expression of proteins. Research on miRNAs had usually focused on identifying targets by base pairing between miRNAs and their targets. Instead of identifying targets, this paper proposed an innovative approach, namely impact significance analysis, to study the correlation between mature sequence, expression across patient samples or time and glo...
متن کاملmiRNA regulation of cytokine genes.
In this review we discuss specific examples of regulation of cytokine genes and focus on a new mechanism involving post-transcriptional regulation via miRNAs. The post-transcriptional regulation of cytokine genes via the destabilizing activity of AU-rich elements [AREs] and miRNAs is a pre-requisite for regulating the half-life of many cytokines and achieving the temporal and spatial distributi...
متن کاملdPORE-miRNA: Polymorphic Regulation of MicroRNA Genes
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNA molecules that act as post-transcriptional regulators and affect the regulation of protein-coding genes. Mostly transcribed by PolII, miRNA genes are regulated at the transcriptional level similarly to protein-coding genes. In this study we focus on human miRNAs. These miRNAs are involved in a variety of pathways and can affect many disease...
متن کاملAbout miRNAs, miRNA seeds, target genes and target pathways
miRNAs are typically repressing gene expression by binding to the 3' UTR, leading to degradation of the mRNA. This process is dominated by the eight-base seed region of the miRNA. Further, miRNAs are known not only to target genes but also to target significant parts of pathways. A logical line of thoughts is: miRNAs with similar (seed) sequence target similar sets of genes and thus similar set...
