Exosomic microRNAs in the Tumor Microenvironment
Dissecting the crosstalk between tumor cells and tumor microenvironment is quickly becoming the new frontier in cancer research. It is now widely accepted that cancer cells can exert a profound influence over their surroundings, by changing the microenvironment from a normal to a tumor-supportive state that allows for sustained tumor growth, invasion, and drug resistance. Extracellular vesicles...
متن کاملMicroRNAs contribution in tumor microenvironment of esophageal cancer.
BACKGROUND miRNAs have recently been implicated in tumor's microenvironment remodeling and tumor-stromal cells interactions. We have previously reported a signaling role for miR-21, as a secretory molecule released by cancer associated fibroblasts (CAF) adjacent to esophagus tumor cells. OBJECTIVE To discover other potential signaling miRNAs, we employed a co-culture system of esophageal canc...
متن کاملA Mimic of the Tumor Microenvironment on GPR30 Gene Expression in Breast Cancer
Introduction: The G-protein coupled receptor 30 (GPR30) gene is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family; involved in breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers. Many GPCR receptors that are implicated in several types of human cancers are correlated with increased cell proliferation and tumor progression; especially GPR30 gene. Methods: The breast cancer MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cel...
متن کاملMicroRNAs play a big role in regulating ovarian cancer-associated fibroblasts and the tumor microenvironment.
Mitra and colleagues analyzed microRNA expression profiles of fibroblasts isolated from ovarian cancer patients, searching for dysregulated microRNAs in the stromal compartment of human cancer. They found that decreased miR-31 and miR-214 and increased miR-155 expression can reprogram normal fibroblasts into tumor-promoting cancer-associated fibroblasts. They identified CCL5, a protumorigenic c...
متن کاملTumor Microenvironment in the Brain
In addition to malignant cancer cells, tumors contain a variety of different stromal cells that constitute the tumor microenvironment. Some of these cell types provide crucial support for tumor growth, while others have been suggested to actually inhibit tumor progression. The composition of tumor microenvironment varies depending on the tumor site. The brain in particular consists of numerous ...
