miR-34a Regulates Mouse Neural Stem Cell Differentiation
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) participate in the regulation of several biological processes, including cell differentiation. Recently, miR-34a has been implicated in the differentiation of monocyte-derived dendritic cells, human erythroleukemia cells, and mouse embryonic stem cells. In addition, members of the miR-34 family have been identified as direct p53 targets. However, the functi...
متن کاملMiR-34a Represses Numbl in Murine Neural Progenitor Cells and Antagonizes Neuronal Differentiation
MicroRNA (miRNA) function is required for normal animal development, in particular in differentiation pathways from stem cell and precursor populations. In neurogenesis, it is becoming increasingly appreciated that miRNAs act at many stages to ensure proper progression. In this study we examined the role of miR-34a in neural progenitor cells (NPC) derived from murine embryonic cortex. We found ...
متن کاملThe microRNA cluster miR-106b~25 regulates adult neural stem/progenitor cell proliferation and neuronal differentiation
In adult mammals, neural stem cells (NSCs) generate new neurons that are important for specific types of learning and memory. Controlling adult NSC number and function is fundamental for preserving the stem cell pool and ensuring proper levels of neurogenesis throughout life. Here we study the importance of the microRNA gene cluster miR-106b~25 (miR-106b, miR-93, and miR-25) in primary cultures...
متن کاملThe miR-20-Rest-Wnt signaling axis regulates neural progenitor cell differentiation
Increasing evidence suggests that three dimensional (3-D) cell cultures are an improvement over traditional two dimensional (2-D) cell cultures. Current researches have extensively focused on the study of utilizing biomaterial-based 3-D culture systems to study and direct stem-cell fate both in vitro and in vivo. Here in our study, we screened the differential expression patterns of miRNAs betw...
متن کاملmiR-34a/SIRT6 in squamous differentiation and cancer
Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are the most frequent type of solid cancers affecting a broad range of tissues, such as skin, lung, oral cavity and genital tract, and, less frequently, bladder and thyroid. Their common feature is that they arise from stratified or pseudo-stratified epithelia and are highly heterogeneous and often associated with a high degree of differentiation, making them res...
