Downregulation of CD24 suppresses bone metastasis of lung cancer
Suppression of bone metastasis can improve patient quality of life. Current drugs for bone metastasis have been shown to prolong progression-free survival but not overall survival; therefore, other potential therapeutic targets for bone metastasis should be investigated. Cell-surface antigens, such as CD24, have been recently shown to be involved in the metastasis of various cancers. However, w...
متن کاملCancer metastasis at a glance: A brief view of Breast Cancer Brain Metastasis
Cancer initiation and progression is a challenging scenario through developmental processes, which may be more complicated by occurrence of metastasis. Basically, diverse genetic alterations, including mutations, formation of truncated proteins and related pathways play key roles either in diagnosis or the most influential therapeutic purposes. ...
متن کاملA MicroRNA Targeting Dicer for Metastasis Control
Although specific microRNAs (miRNAs) can be upregulated in cancer, global miRNA downregulation is a common trait of human malignancies. The mechanisms of this phenomenon and the advantages it affords remain poorly understood. Here we identify a microRNA family, miR-103/107, that attenuates miRNA biosynthesis by targeting Dicer, a key component of the miRNA processing machinery. In human breast ...
متن کاملDownregulation of Dicer enhances tumor cell proliferation and invasion.
miRNAs are non-coding, single-stranded RNAs that regulate target gene expression by repressing translation or promoting RNA cleavage. Dicer is an essential component of the miRNA processing machinery. To identify a role for miRNAs in tumorigenesis, we designed an adenovirus expressing small hairpin RNA (shRNA) to silence Dicer and globally suppress the maturation of miRNAs. We identified that t...
