MicroRNA-21 regulates the expression of BTG2 in HepG2 liver cancer cells
B‑cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) is a tumor suppressor gene, which belongs to the anti‑proliferation gene family. Our previous study demonstrated that microRNA (miR)‑21 and the expression of BTG2 were negatively correlated during hepatocarcinogenesis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of miR‑21 on the growth and progression of liver cancer cells, and to determine the...
متن کاملmicroRNA-21 negatively regulates Cdc25A and cell cycle progression in colon cancer cells.
microRNAs (miRNA) are small noncoding RNAs that participate in diverse biological processes by suppressing target gene expression. Altered expression of miR-21 has been reported in cancer. To gain insights into its potential role in tumorigenesis, we generated miR-21 knockout colon cancer cells through gene targeting. Unbiased microarray analysis combined with bioinformatics identified cell cyc...
متن کاملAutophagy regulates the stemness of cervical cancer stem cells
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a rare population of multipotent cells with the capacity to self-renew. It has been reported that there are CSCs in cervical cancer cells. Pluripotency-associated (PA) transcription factors such as Oct4, Sox2, Nanog and CD44 have been used to isolate CSCs subpopulations. In this study, we showed that autophagy plays an important role in the biological behavior of ce...
متن کاملHypoxia regulates stemness of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells.
Human breast cancers include cancer stem cell populations as well as non-tumorigenic cancer cells. Breast cancer stem cells possess self-renewal capability and thus are the root cause of recurrence and metastasis of malignant tumors. Hypoxia is a fundamental pathological feature of solid tumor tissues and exerts a wide range of effects on the biological behavior of cancer cells. However, there ...
متن کاملMicroRNA-21 regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of cervical cancer cells via tumor necrosis factor-α
The proliferation and apoptosis of tumor cells are regulated by a variety of microRNAs (miRs). miR‑21 can inhibit the apoptosis of cancer cells in vitro. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF‑α) serves an important role in the induction of proliferation of cervical cancer cells. Previous studies have demonstrated that the expression level of miR‑21 is associated with TNF‑α expression in alveolar macroph...
