Regulation of RPTPα-c-Src signalling pathway by miR-218.
Receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase alpha (RPTPα), an activator of Src family kinases, is found significantly overexpressed in human cancer tissues. However, little is known about the regulation of RPTPα expression. miRNAs target multiple genes and play important roles in many cancer processes. Here, we identified a miRNA, miR-218 that binds directly to the 3'-UTR of RPTPα. Ectopic overexpres...
متن کاملIntegrative bioinformatics analysis identifies ROBO1 as a potential therapeutic target modified by miR-218 in hepatocellular carcinoma
Patients diagnosed with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presented poor prognosis and short survival time. Althouth accumulating contribution of continuous research has gradually revealed complex tumorigenesis mechanism of HCC with numerous and jumbled biomarkers, those specific ones for HCC diagnose and therapeutic treatment are required illustration. Multiple genes over-expressed in HC...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of miR-218 and its host gene, SLIT2 in breast cancer
Numerous studies have shown that microRNAs are deregulated in various types of cancer. Although miR‑218 aberrant expression has been documented in various cancers, the epigenetic regulation of miR-218 is unclear in breast cancer. Our results demonstrate that treatment of breast cancer cells with demethylating agent, 5-azacytidine, resulted in increased expression of miR-218 and its host gene sl...
متن کاملmiR-218 suppresses gastric cancer cell proliferation and invasion via regulation of angiopoietin-2
Novel targeted therapies need to be developed for gastric cancer, the third most common cancer type and the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality in China. Previous studies indicate that angiopoietin (Ang)-2 serves a role in the proliferation, migration, invasion and adhesion of malignant cells. The present study identified, using functional studies, that exogenous expression of ...
متن کاملMolecular basis of differential target regulation by miR-96 and miR-182: the Glypican-3 as a model
Besides the fact that miR-96 and miR-182 belong to the miR-182/183 cluster, their seed region (UUGGCA, nucleotides 2-7) is identical suggesting potential common properties in mRNA target recognition and cellular functions. Here, we used the mRNA encoding Glypican-3, a heparan-sulfate proteoglycan, as a model target as its short 3' untranslated region is predicted to contain one miR-96/182 site,...
