miR-19b regulates hTERT mRNA expression through targeting PITX1 mRNA in melanoma cells
Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) plays a crucial role in cancer development. We previously identified paired-like homeodomain1 (PITX1) as an hTERT suppressor gene. However, the underlying mechanisms that are involved in the regulation of PITX1 remain unknown. Here, we report that the microRNA-19b (miR-19b) regulates hTERT expression and cell proliferation through inhibition of PIT...
متن کاملTelomerase activity and hTERT mRNA expression in glial tumors.
Human telomerase is a structurally complex ribonucleoprotein that is responsible for the maintenance of telomeric DNA at the ends of the chromosomes. The enzyme is proposed as having an important role in cell immortalization and oncogenesis. A limited number of studies have been performed on the telomerase system in brain tumors, and these studies are somewhat conflicting. The relative ineffect...
متن کاملmiR-148 Regulates Mitf in Melanoma Cells
The Microphthalmia associated transcription factor (Mitf) is an important regulator in melanocyte development and has been shown to be involved in melanoma progression. The current model for the role of Mitf in melanoma assumes that the total activity of the protein is tightly regulated in order to secure cell proliferation. Previous research has shown that regulation of Mitf is complex and inv...
متن کاملAntisense Sp1 oligodeoxynucleotide decreases telomerase activity by inhibiting hTERT mRNA expression in Jurkat T cells.
AIM To study the effects of transcriptional factor Sp1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) on telomerase activity and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) expression. METHODS Antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) was designed to inhibit Sp1 expression and transferred to Jurkat T cells by lipofectamin. Telomerase PCR-ELISA was used to detect telomerase activity. RT-PCR analysis was u...
متن کاملLong-term suppression of telomerase expression in HeLa cell clones, transfected with an expression vector carrying siRNA targeting hTERT mRNA.
HeLa cell cultures were used as model systems for small interfering RNA (siRNA) induced knockdown of mRNA expression of the human telomerase catalytic subunit, telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). Four 21-bp siRNAs targeting different sites of the hTERT mRNA were designed, and the siRNA molecules produced by a T7 transcription system in vitro. In transient transfection assays on HeLa cells...
