Epigenetic silencing of miR-145-5p contributes to brain metastasis
Brain metastasis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality of lung cancer patients. We assessed whether aberrant expression of specific microRNAs could contribute to brain metastasis. Comparison of primary lung tumors and their matched metastatic brain disseminations identified shared patterns of several microRNAs, including common down-regulation of miR-145-5p. Down-regulation was attributed...
متن کاملEpigenetic silencing of miR-335 and its host gene MEST in hepatocellular carcinoma
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that function as endogenous silencers of target genes. Some tumor-suppressive miRNAs are known to be epigenetically silenced by promoter DNA methylation in cancer. In the present study, we aimed to identify miRNA genes that are silenced by DNA hypermethylation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We scree...
متن کاملMicroRNA-mediated epigenetic silencing of sirtuin1 contributes to impaired angiogenic responses.
RATIONALE Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β was linked to abnormal vessel function and can mediate impairment of endothelial angiogenic responses. Its effect on microRNAs and downstream targets in this context is not known. OBJECTIVE To study the role of microRNAs in TGF-β-mediated angiogenic activity. METHODS AND RESULTS MicroRNA profiling after TGF-β treatment of endothelial cells identi...
متن کاملDown-regulation of microRNA-143 contributes to unfavorable prognosis for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can serve as biomarker for prognosis in many cancers. However, little is known about the role of miR-143 for prognosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to quantify miR-143 expression in NPC tissues. The relationship of miR-143 expression with clinicopathological parameters of NPC patien...
متن کاملXenopus furry contributes to release of microRNA gene silencing.
A transcriptional corepressor, Xenopus furry (Xfurry), is expressed in the chordamesodermal region and induces secondary dorsal axes when overexpressed on the ventral side of the embryo. The N-terminal furry domain functions as a repressor, and the C-terminal leucine zipper (LZ) motifs /coiled-coil structure, found only in vertebrate homologs, contributes to the nuclear localization. The engrai...
