miR-221 overexpression contributes to liver tumorigenesis.
MicroRNA (miRNAs) are negative regulators of gene expression and can function as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Expression patterns of miRNAs and their role in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are still poorly understood. We profiled miRNA expression in tissue samples (104 HCC, 90 adjacent cirrhotic livers, 21 normal livers) as well as in 35 HCC cell lines. A set of 12 miRNAs...
متن کاملExpression and prognostic significance of miR-375 and miR-221 in liver cancer
The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of miR-375 and miR-221 in liver cancer, and examine the correlations with pathological parameters and prognosis. We collected tumors and tumor-adjacent normal tissue from 70 patients with liver cancer admitted to the Department of General Surgery of Zhejiang Hospital. The expression of miR-375 by RT-qPCR was significantly lower in live...
متن کاملRetraction: miR-221 Promotes Tumorigenesis in Human Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cells
The authors Min-Jean Yin and Rounak Nassirpour and a Pfizer representative contacted the editorial office to raise that there are image duplications in Figure 4B of this article. Pfizer has undertaken a review and deemed that important conclusions in the manuscript cannot be verified, as original images cannot be located. In light of the concerns identified, the authors and the PLOS ONE Editors...
متن کاملmiR-221 Promotes Tumorigenesis in Human Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cells
Patients with triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) typically have a poor prognosis. TNBCs are characterized by their resistance to apoptosis, aggressive cellular proliferation, migration and invasion, and currently lack molecular markers and effective targeted therapy. Recently, miR-221/miR-222 have been shown to regulate ERα expression and ERα-mediated signaling in luminal breast cancer cell...
متن کاملOverexpression of miR-221 inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis of human astrocytoma cells.
microRNAs (miRNAs) play tumor-promoting roles in a variety of tumors. This study investigated the expression of miRNA-211 (miR-221) in human astrocytoma, and its effect on proliferation and apoptosis of human astrocytoma cells in vitro. miR-221 expression was detected in 10 astrocytoma tissues and 4 adjacent tissues by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). miR-221 expression in situ was signifi...
