microRNA-1/133a and microRNA-206/133b clusters: Dysregulation and functional roles in human cancers
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous short non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by repressing translation or cleaving RNA transcripts in a sequence-specific manner. A growing body of evidence suggests that miRNAs are aberrantly expressed in many human cancers and that they play significant roles in the initiation, development and metastasis of human cancers. Genome-wide miRNA exp...
متن کاملMicroRNA clusters: dysregulation in lung adenocarcinoma and COPD.
Lung adenocarcinoma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are pulmonary diseases that share common aetiological factors (tobacco smoking) and probable dysregulated pathways. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in regulating numerous physiological and pathological processes. The purpose of this study was to assess global miRNA expression patterns in patients with COPD and/or ade...

Featured Article: Yanaihara N, Caplen N, Bowman E, Seike M, Kumamoto K, Yi M, et al. Unique microRNA molecular profiles in lung cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Cancer Cell 2006;9:189 –98. Recent evidence has revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs) function as tumor suppressors and oncogenes, and therefore miRNAs might prove useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In 2002, Croce’s group report...
متن کاملMicroRNA dysregulation in schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder that involves disturbances in neural circuitry and synaptic function. The exquisite network architecture and capacity for discreet post-synaptic remodeling of neurons requires coordination by an elaborate intracellular network of molecular signal transduction systems. The redundancy of these networks means that many combinations of gene varia...
متن کاملPrinciples of microRNA involvement in human cancers
Naturally occurring microRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNAs of 19 to 24 nucleotides (nt), are encoded in the genomes of invertebrates, vertebrates, and plants. miRNAs act as regulators of gene expression during development and differentiation at the transcriptional, posttranscriptional, and/or translational levels, although most target genes are still elusive. Many miRNAs are conserved in seq...
