let-7 and miR-140 microRNAs coordinately regulate skeletal development.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in multiple processes of skeletal development. A global reduction of miRNAs in growth plate chondrocytes results in defects in both proliferation and differentiation; however, specific microRNAs responsible for these defects have not been identified. In this study, we provide evidence that let-7 miRNAs and microRNA-140 (miR-140), among other miRNAs express...
متن کاملCocaine Modulates the Expression of Opioid Receptors and miR-let-7d in Zebrafish Embryos
Prenatal exposure to cocaine, in mammals, has been shown to interfere with the expression of opioid receptors, which can have repercussions in its activity. Likewise, microRNAs, such as let-7, have been shown to regulate the expression of opioid receptors and hence their functions in mammals and in vitro experiments. In light of this, using the zebrafish embryos as a model our aim here was to e...
متن کاملmiR-181a and miR-630 regulate cisplatin-induced cancer cell death.
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are noncoding RNAs that regulate multiple cellular processes, including proliferation and apoptosis. We used microarray technology to identify miRNAs that were upregulated by non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells in response to cisplatin (CDDP). The corresponding synthetic miRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs) per se were not lethal when transfected into A549 cells yet affecte...
متن کاملMicroRNAs miR-19, miR-340, miR-374 and miR-542 regulate MID1 protein expression
The MID1 ubiquitin ligase activates mTOR signaling and regulates mRNA translation. Misregulation of MID1 expression is associated with various diseases including midline malformation syndromes, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. While this indicates that MID1 expression must be tightly regulated to prevent disease states specific mechanisms involved have not been identified. We examined miR...
متن کاملMicroRNAs miR-124 and miR-135a are potential regulators of the mineralocorticoid receptor gene (NR3C2) expression
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) comprise a post-transcriptional layer of gene regulation shown to be involved in diverse physiological processes. We aimed to study whether regulatory networks that determine susceptibility to hypertension may involve a miRNA component. Screening of loci, involved in renal water-salt balance regulation, highlighted the mineralocorticoid receptor gene NR3C2 as a potential targ...
