ARTICLES miR-145 and miR-143 regulate smooth muscle cell fate and plasticity
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regulators of myriad cellular events, but evidence for a single miRNA that can efficiently differentiate multipotent stem cells into a specific lineage or regulate direct reprogramming of cells into an alternative cell fate has been elusive. Here we show that miR-145 and miR-143 are co-transcribed in multipotent murine cardiac progenitors before becoming localized to smoo...
متن کاملMiR-143 and MiR-145 Regulate IGF1R to Suppress Cell Proliferation in Colorectal Cancer
Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) is a transmembrane receptor that is activated by insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and by a related hormone called IGF-2. It belongs to the large class of tyrosine kinase receptors and plays an important role in colorectal cancer etiology and progression. In this study, we used bioinformatic analyses to search for miRNAs that potentially target I...
متن کاملMicroRNAs miR-143 and miR-145 modulate cytoskeletal dynamics and responsiveness of smooth muscle cells to injury.
Vascular injury triggers dedifferentiation and cytoskeletal remodeling of smooth muscle cells (SMCs), culminating in vessel occlusion. Serum response factor (SRF) and its coactivator, myocardin, play a central role in the control of smooth muscle phenotypes by regulating the expression of cytoskeletal genes. We show that SRF and myocardin regulate a cardiovascular-specific microRNA (miRNA) clus...
متن کاملAdvances in Genetics miR-143 and miR-145 Molecular Keys to Switch the Phenotype of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are able to perform both contractile and synthetic functions, which are associated with changes in morphology, proliferation, and migration rates and are characterized by the specific expression of different marker proteins. Under normal physiological conditions, VSMC rarely proliferate in adult tissues, but undergo major phenotypic changes from the contract...
متن کاملmiR-143 and miR-145 inhibit gastric cancer cell migration and metastasis by suppressing MYO6
Metastasis is a major clinical obstacle responsible for the high mortality and poor prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical mediators of metastasis that act by modulating their target genes. In this study, we found that miR-143 and miR-145 act via a common target gene, MYO6, to regulate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and inhibit metastasis. We determined t...
