MicroRNAs, SNPs and cancer
MiRNAs are probable regulators of cell events such as differentiation, propagation and apoptosis. These cellular phenomena are also associated with benign and malignant tumor cells, therefore, it is presumed that miRNAs act as natural oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. Whether a particular miRNA serves as either could almost be moot when the additional problems of SNPs enter the fray. A miRNA...
متن کاملGastric Cancer MicroRNAs Meta-signature
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common types of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-associated mortality. Identification of novel biomarkers is critical to prolonging patient survival. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) proved to play diverse roles in the physiological and pathological state in cancers including GC. Herein we were aimed at performing a meta-analysis on miRNA profiling studies ...
متن کاملMicroRNAs as biomarkers associated with bladder cancer
Bladder cancer is the fifth most common cancer with significant morbidity and mortality. Recently, numerous studies demonstrated that microRNAs are emerging as diagnostic biomarkers for bladder cancer. Specific miRNA profiles have been identified for several samples from patients with bladder cancer. MicroRNAs are noncoding RNA molecules of approximately 23 nucleotides that play important roles...
متن کاملEffects of microRNAs polymorphism in cancer progression
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known as a new class of small RNAs (18-25 nucleotides) that regulate gene expression at multiple levels from transcription to translation. Considering the important role of miRNAs in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, any variations in their expression can contribute to various anomalies, such as tumorigenesis. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have ...
متن کاملmicroRNAs and prostate cancer
Prostate cancer (CaP) is the most frequently diagnosed malignant tumour and the second leading cause of cancer deaths in American men. One of the most troubling aspects of this disease is that, after androgen ablation therapy, androgen-dependent cancer cells inevitably progress to an androgen-independent status, for which no effective treatment has yet been developed. To date, the mechanisms th...
